Default mdf heat tolerance

'M',

Since this stuff is basically PAPER and Glue . . . I wouldn't use it
ANYWHERE near a hear source.

Even if it wouldn't be heated to the point of ignition, it would be DRIED
OUT till it was both brittle AND much more sensitive to sources of ignition.

Regards & Good Luck,

I'm making a radiator cover using mdf and I plan to use glue as a
bonding agent (rather than nails and screws.) Since it will be
constantly exposed to heat, is this the right way to go? What kind of
glue would be appropriate?
