Epoxy coatings
Have deeper than usual MDF internal window cill inside which was previously (
badly) painted in old fashioned oil based gloss. Had thought about over laying a pvc cill but they're not made deep enough. So question is would it he possible to cover this in a brilliant white pourble epoxy resin and if so can somebody point me in the direction of a supplier.. -- for full context, visit https://www.homeownershub.com/uk-diy...s-1415257-.htm |

Our front window has one 18" deep, but IIRC, it was 24" before I cut it to fit - it was some years ago. SteveW |

Why not strip the paint (hot air gun or Nitromors) and repaint it? BTW many people (including me) prefer oil-based paint to acrylics, especially on something like a window sill/cill. |

What about covering with UPVC cill trim https://www.masterplastics.co.uk/sto...ll-cover-board Different sizes are available. Around my way I have seen companies on trading estates supllying UPVC trim products for all types of applications. -- mailto : news {at} admac {dot} myzen {dot} co {dot} uk |

Depending your window type what about removing the current cill and replace with a plastic coated product? When I had my DG windows done the internal cill was the last thing fitted prior to making good the surrounding plaster and beads of sealer to seal the join to the window. My internal cills are a plastic coated MDF. -- mailto : news {at} admac {dot} myzen {dot} co {dot} uk |
