Current status:

Question:

First, fix the leak. There was no mention of that. Maybe you implied
that.



I'm thinking
of sealing the particle board and MDF with something (shellac, wood
preservaticve, &tc,. ???), then coating with a primer (Kilz?), then
painting with a quality oil-based paint.

Any suggestions?

Again, thanks a heap,

Probably just get it smooth, mabye give it a coat of exterior paint if
it's real bad, and cover with shelf liner. Or if you want a better
result with more work, you can go buy a sheet of veneer cabinet
facing, make a template and glue in place. Will likely have to be in
more than one piece though to get it in
