How do I Go About Painting MDF? MDF sometimes comes pre-primed, but if yours isn't, then you should prime the surface before painting. You can use any type of water-based primer, such as an emulsion paint or an acrylic primer.This base-coat of primer will help give the top coat a truer shade and will prevent it from being affected by the color of the board. do painting of mdf all the time. Water based undercoat is fine but i prefer two coats. then i use eggshell, oil based finish once. that should always be enough.

Use the same technique for foundation but allow at least a minute for your primer to absorb. A foundation brush, fingers or buffing brush will produce the best results but the key is to blend.

Karla's Cottage Life is too short! Now, if you are painting something really tough, like laminate or a high gloss laquer, maybe a quick sanding wouldn't hurt, just to give it some tooth.
