Evening, had it delivered this week - primed mdf. Would it benefit from another coat of primer (I've got some Zinsser to hand)? Would you prime the rear of it as well as the face? I was going to just glue this on using pinkgrip - is this sensible or would it benefit from a nail as well? Is it worth putting the top coat on before fixing (especially if glued on)? If I nail it - I assume oval head nails just below the surface & then filled - what would you use as filler? I was going to glue and nail the architrave. It would be great if you could all share your secrets! Cheers CC

Following on from the other thread about paint sprayers, I now have one, and the next thing I need is to build some dismountable racks for supporting skirting boards for finishing / painting. I need enough to spray do about 32 4m lengths of skirting in one session, and I need to be able to store them in a small space for next time. My current thinking is for a pair of 2.4m CLS (bought too much CLS) A-frames, joined by a pair of horizontals each side which can be removed for storage. The skirtings to be supported by 2" screws driven 15mm in on the faces of the A-frames at 225mm intervals. That would give me space for 8x 4m or 5m lengths each side for spraying with a finish or paint. i was trying to do a diagram, but it was looking comical so I may just build one and take a photo. I wonder if anyone has any tested designs they could post? Thanks for any help. Ferdinand
