Good to know about MDF

MDF and HDF are fibreboards. Wood fibres are pressed under pressure into an even, dense material. As a result, there is no continuous grain and the edges hardly splinter. That's exactly why the material is so popular for crafts. It's easy to paint evenly, cover neatly and work precisely.

Care & durability

There's not much you need to do. Simply store the offcuts in a dry place, as the material is raw and untreated. This keeps the surface smooth and flat. Your supply will still be ready for your next project.
