<div dir="ltr">My stage floor is covered in 1/2" MDF. It is "mostly" stable and takes paint well but it's not very robust. It chips and scratches easily. I've had it down for 10 years now and it's pretty shot. It should have been replaced 2 years ago but time and money say otherwise.<div><br></div><div>Ron</div></div><div class="gmail_extra"><br clear="all"><div><div class="gmail_signature" data-smartmail="gmail_signature"><div dir="ltr">Ron Koinzan<div>Technical Director</div><div>Department of Theatre</div><div>University of Northern Iowa</div><div>(319) 273-2139</div></div></div></div>

Is there a reason(s) that I don't see the collective group here recommend MDF?<br>

Just curious.<br>
