MDF panelling made easy
Ordered MDF panelling. The ordering process was easy, and the panelling was well packaged and labelled which simplified the installation greatly. Take a tip from me - don’t be a cheapskate - if you’re going to paint then buy it primed and save yourself an extra step. Highly recommended.
