  • What to do here?
    Shitty picture, but this is an MDF bench seat. Obvs. Kids.
    Paint has bubbled. So.
    Can I sand it back (I think so) and what is the paint I should use here? What's going to form a "fuck off kids" layer?

    I guess this would help shape the "I need to refresh the woodwork what paint is bomb proof here?" Chat I need to have soon.

  • It's not a very clear picture but those kind of problems are usually contamination of the primer/undercoat layer by something greasy which stops the top coat bonding properly. It's hard to tell whether it's been properly prepared and painted but there's not much that will resist kids anyway. Might be easier to apply some kind of thin surface like cork or rubber tiles. Basically a thin floor tile or some kind of hard wearing plastic coating.

    It could be done with paint but it's not going to be the most durable surface for the time and money it will cost. Plus you will probably need longer drying times for any paint that has more pigment/binder in it.
