FAQs

What is MDF?

MDF stands for Medium Density Fiberboard. It is an engineered wood product formed by breaking down hardwood or softwood residuals into wood fibers, often in a defibrator, combining it with wax and a resin binder, and forming panels by applying high temperature and pressure.

Can I use this board for exterior applications?

No, the Arranwood MDF Window Sill Board is designed for interior use only. It is not weather-resistant.

What type of paint should I use?

Use any good quality interior paint suitable for wood surfaces. Ensure the primer and paint are compatible.

How do I cut the board?

Use a saw, such as a hand saw, circular saw, or table saw. Ensure the blade is sharp for a clean cut.

How do I clean the board?

Wipe the board with a damp cloth. Avoid using excessive water or abrasive cleaners.

Can I stain the board?

The board is pre-primed and designed to be painted. Staining is generally not recommended as the MDF will absorb the stain unevenly.
