:thumbsup: Agreed. I built some utility cabinets in the garage with MDF and they definitely require primer if you want a decent finish. Also on the ends that have been cut, make sure you use a sealer OR you can use a 50/50 mixture of wood glue and water to seal with. Just mix it up and brush it on. Once it dries sand it lightly.
