Hi Everyone,


I'm almost at the process of finishing my cabinet doors and wanted to know what products are needed to achieve a high gloss finish like you find in painted modern furniture. I'm aware that I have to make sure the MDF edges are sealed, but not sure what product would be good for this. I've read that I need to stay away from waterborne products since they may cause the MDF to swell. I am planning on spraying this with the 4-stage Fuji HVLP. These cabinets will be in the garage, so I would like to use something very durable. Is pre-cat lacquer the way to go?

My questions:
What type of primer?
What type of paint?
Any recommended brands?
Tips?
