What is Moisture Resistant MDF used for?
MR MDF is designed for humid environments such as kitchens, bathrooms, and utility rooms, where standard MDF would be prone to damage.
Is Moisture Resistant MDF waterproof?
No - it’s moisture resistant, not waterproof. It withstands humidity far better than standard MDF, but should not be used in areas of direct water contact (e.g., inside showers).
Can I paint Moisture Resistant MDF?
Yes - the smooth surface is perfect for painting. For the best results, use a primer before painting.
