Bakit madami gumagamit ng MDF eh ang bilis pala masira nun? At saka para pala syang sponge?

Nung nakuha ko yung condo unit ko, kasama sa turn over yung sink on an MDF cabinet. May 2011 lang kami tumira dun sa unit, tapos ngayon pinaparenovate ko. Nung na-dismantle ng karpintero yung cabinet, nagulat ako dahil bulok na yung loob nya.

Btw, I'm thinking of having tempered glass for my backsplash. May idea po ba kayo magkano ang tempered glass per square foot? Isa pa lang napagtanungan ko at sabi nya Php450/sq ft.

Ayoko sana kasi ng tiles kasi parang mahirap linisin at saka I hate grouts.

Well, for one it was the leak that should been addressed in the first place. Ok naman ang MDF pero mas bagay gamitin kung Automotive Paint na Poly at sarado batak. Very resistant to water na yan kung ganun. Maganda din sa MDF and unlike Plywood hindi na kailangan ng Barateha sa gilid. Madali din pintahan since walang haspe na sasarhan. You can router the sides or pwede mo ring lagyan ng routed lines sa front. Dyan maganda ang MDF kasi hindi naman pwedeng lagyang ng bullnose or corner mold ang plywood, unless may casing pa sya. Mas madaling masira ng tubig ang chipboard. Plywood is ideal kasi sa over all use and yung mga old school na Karpintero still prefer this lalo na kung matiaga pang mag lagay ng barateha. Problema sa lang sa "marine" plywood almost all are fake. Isang brand lang ang alam ko na legit yung Sta Clara Brand. As a builder, wala naman type na pangit kasi lahat yan may pinaglalaanan so we cannot disparage one because some people uses it not for it's ideal purpose.

Hi cyberpunk, thanks for correcting me.. I should say Medium-density fiberboard (MDF ) It is similar in application to plywood but made up of separated fibers, not wood veneers. It is denser than normal particleboard. In other words ,We call MDF as Fiber board.

Thanks for the input kahit di ko naintindihan most of it. I'm not familiar with construction jargons kasi. Nagtitingin tingin lang ako ng materials dahil nga sa renovation, and it's one of the more evident difference I've observed -- yung mukhang sponge ang MDF. Not to mention ang mahal ng modular kitchens that use MDF (although I haven't encountered a modular kitchen that uses plywood). Btw, wala pong leak dun sa lababo. It's probably just the humidity.

[cyberfunk]

Baka particle board yun. If humidity got it then it must be old and MDF is relatively new. Particle boards are more widely used by the early pre-fab kitchen suppliers here in the philippines from the high end Maco Kutchen to the mid Mobel Systema to the more economical San Jose brand. They supplied Particle board kitchen cabs more than 30 years ago.

hi angeljolie,
eto ang mdf, eto ginamit sa kitchen namen,

yan yung part na binutas para sa sink, 3 mos na syang asa labas lang ng bahay, naulanan and naarawan na, pero hindi naman sya ganon na nag absorb ng tubig..kaya pag naka sealed mabuti, siguro naman hindi magkakaproblem

[shankie30]

Here's a sample of my accidental kitchen (kaso wala akong plano magpagawa dapat ng new kitchen eh ). Sink pic with the bling bling.

Mahal pala yung water sprayer na yun maski na chrome lang sya. Sa Handyman ko nabili.

At mas lalong mahal ang undermount liquid soap dispenser. 1k plus!

Buti na lang may soap dispender akong nabili dati from Handyman, wishy washy buy 1 take 1, na malaki kesa normal ang leeg ng bottle. swak na swak sa taphole ng Teka sink ko. yun nga lang white sya. oks pa din naman.

May mga wallmount 2-partition soap dispenser sale sa Handyman. with free liquid soap pa worth PHP85. PHP225 lang. ok naman ang design. hindi baduy.

ganda naman...san banda ang handyman neo?

Pag nag pa install kayo ng sink remind the installer to use a butyl-rubber caulk as a seal. Ganun din sa built-in hob type range dapat may butyl seal. Some built in range comes with this sa box.

sir ang nakita kong nilagay nung installer yung black na parang alkitran, tapos pinabili nya pa 'ko ng silicone sealant pwede kaya yun? hindi kaya ako magkakaproblema? pinaikutan naman nya yung buong sink

[cyberfunk]

Yeah, that's it. Butyl na yung black na parang alkitran. That will do the job and your installer just went further with the silicone. Unnecessary but no harm done some old habits never die. Good for him. Single hole sa granite? An extra hole would be better.

San Jose Kitchen Cabinets Systems uses laminated marine plywood in their modular kitchens. Been buying scrap laminated marine plywood from San Jose in the past weeks at PHP10 per kilo. Anglapit lang kasi sa village ko ng San Jose.

I was able to renovate my bathrooms by making toiletry cabinets, medicine cabinets with mirror, tissue paper holder, liquid soap dispenser mount, cleaning materials hanging shelf/open cabinet, shampoo shelf/open cabinet. Plus the stainless steel pipes, holders, and flanges from Soler Manila, it only cost me about 1K for each bathroom.

I still have a lot of lined up DIY projects from these laminated marine plywood scraps.

sa Waltermart. matagal na yung promo na yan. wala na ngayon. sa bathrooms ko nilagay ang liquid soap dispensers.
