[QUOTE="Katji, post: 788106, member: 17768"] Agree re that PVC shelf stuff, and rubbery finish coating. No way. Veneer and so on too expensive, more than the hardware cost. I think "piano black" need a good - expensive - spray painter. You might get a cheaper quote but... smh. I would spraycan it. 4 cans of Hammerite, about R100 each now, I guess. I've used the gloss black, not difficult to get right - although I used it on metal, dunno about MDF. I used the hammertone on raw pine, no primer, it's fine...but maybe MDF would need primer. Maybe one can of primer would do it. * Spray-On, available at some Midas/Mica stores. The satin black is awesome...and hard-wearing, you can wipe it with a wet cloth. Small cans, you would need at least 4 - probably 6, but it's well under R100 per can iirc. You probably wouldn't find it easily though. [/QUOTE]
