Hi Building home-entertainment centre/shelving area with maple veneered mdf, but need advice on finishing options. Want a finish that will not yellow the wood, and can be applied by pad/cloth rather than brushing. Dont like varnishes. Was considering Tung Oil, but read that this along with all other oil based finishes yellows with age, and water-base treatments would be better on light wood. The article does not go on to explain what water-based finishes there are.- can anyone advise ??
Thanks Harry
