[QUOTE="ramos, post: 137110, member: 540858"] Yes MDF is porous. Using your own example think about how it's made. It is basically wood particles compressed together under extreme preasure. Then soaked in a formaldahyde glue. That's pretty much all there is to the process of manufacturing it. No special care is taken to make sure the particles are perfectly aligned so that it is airtight. How could it not be porous ? For an even better example look at an edge after you cut it.
