This isn't really much in the way of a "fine woodworking" question, but I
hope it will be close enough to on topic.
I bought a metal shelving unit that uses particle board to put on top of the
structure. The particle board, of course, is unfinished.
As I will be at least putting a coat of primer on the particle board, I am
looking for a way to seal up the edges.
I have seen references to using a thin mixture of wood glue, and that seems
like a decent way to go. For anyone who has used that, how thin did you
make it? Maybe a 1:2 ratio of water to glue?
Any other methods?
Thanks,
Jon
When I cut a hole in a particle board countertop to install a sink, I
just seal the edge with a couple coats of Kilz primer, ot thick latex
paint - which ever is readilly available.
