PVA waterproof adhesive on MDF
Have a piece of oak veneered mdf that i wish to use to make a shelf along
side the bath. The oak veneer does not cover all the edges, so my plan is to seal the edges and to then use a ronseal quick drying water based matt varnish to paint the whole thing. I can see that PVA is often advertised for use as a sealant. A little while ago I bought a tub of Wickes PVA water proof adhesive. It says not to glue two non porous materials that is subjected to wet. As an experiement I found soaking things with water makes the adhesive go soft again and come adrift. So is this 'so called' waterproof adhesive suitable as a sealant on this mdf please. Or is PVA waterproof adhesive essentially different from PVA sealant and so not suitable to seal the mdf. thanks |
