so what do you guys think...andrew dropped this off to me like two weeks ago and he painted it for me but it looked like the mdf reallly soaked it up so i decided to primer it and paint it again with a nice little shine to it. Added some hinges and it turned out better then i thought.

i know i should have sanded it a bit to make it nice and smooth but eh it looks good to me //content.invisioncic.com/y282845/emoticons/biggrin.gif.d71a5d36fcbab170f2364c9f2e3946cb.gif

You should have used spray primer and paint.The brush strokes really show!It has a good sheen to it but it would look a ton better if it was smooth.

definitely looks good, now where are the installed pics lol. Good to see people building things and taking pride in what they have built

x2 on either using spray on primer or at least finish sanding before you painted to eliminate the brush strokes. Otherwise it looks good...
