Give an old MDF shelving unit a new lease of life by adding a stylish plywood top.
Fun with furniture with Mark Rayner - Project 32
Difficulty level: Challenging
You will need: 18mm plywood, clamps, damp sponge, old mdf shelving unit, paintbrush, pencil, PVA glue, sandpaper, saw, small pieces of wood or MDF and a tape measure. Resene Aquaclear satin, Resene Lustacryl tinted to Resene Quarter Pearl Lusta and Resene Quick Dry.
To get the look: Mark painted the background wall with Resene SpaceCote Flat tinted to Resene Eighth Canterbury Clay.
Other ideas: For a darker effect, colour the plywood top with a stain from the Resene Colorwood range before applying the Resene Aquaclear.
