Default Paint for MDF?

I have some raw MDF shelving that I'd like to paint. The shelving might be
subjected to some heavy/sharp items or oily items, so I need something that
is durable and won't bubble up when oil is spilled on it.

What would be the best paint to use?

Thx!


Polyurethanes have it all over other coatings for abrasion resistance.
Since adhesion is not an issue with polyurethanes, simply thin the
first coat for penetration and apply second coat normally. System
gives excellent rsults on MDF with a $20 spray gun from HF and would
likely do just fine with a Wagner Whoopee Sparayer. HTH
