Hi
A friend of mine has made some MDF wardrobe doors for me, what is best to treat them prior to painting, and whats best paint and technique to finish them?
Thanks

I have used emulsion (several coats) followed by a hard floor acrylic varnish. All applied by roller. Worked fine for my purposes.
There is special primer for MDF. If you don't use it you get pinholes when it dries.
I found a coat of an acrylic gloss applied with a roller as a primer, will then let you finish in normal gloss after.
