Achieving a Seamless Finish: The Art of Sanding Interior Elements for Water-Based Coatings
In the world of interior spraying, the quest for a flawless finish on cabinets, furniture and interior elements, is an ongoing endeavour; this is more true when discussing kitchen cupboard doors. When working with Medium Density Fiberboard (MDF) and opting for water-based coatings, the paint certainly has a major part to play, however, one crucial step in achieving perfection is sanding. In this blog, we'll explore the importance of sanding in creating a smooth finish with Anker Stuy's Ankocryl Interior system and reducing fibre raise on MDF, with a specific focus on the new Mirka Ligno sanding pads.
Choose Ankocryl Interior

With their low VOC content, these coatings minimise environmental impact and promote healthier indoor air quality. They provide excellent durability, resisting scratches, stains, and fading while retaining the natural beauty of the wood.
The Ankocryl Water-based Interior PU Topcoat line is based on a blend of self-crosslinking acrylic and polyurethane dispersions. This blend has been chosen to allow for the optimum balance of properties such as chemical resistance, scratch resistance as well as resistance to impact and tannin blocking. This is a single-component reactive coating without the downsides of a true 2-pack system, for instance mixing with a hardener, a limited pot life and flammable material-related storage concerns. Furthermore, the latest available technology gives the best chemical resistance against known aggressive household chemicals such as coffee, blackcurrant cordial, red wine and alcohol on both dark, pastel and white shades.
