                  A:  Hi there, thanks for the question. For a primer to help fill in the wood grain of oak cabinets, I'd recommend using our Kilz 3 Premium Primer. It has a high-hide formula to help fill in imperfections on the surface. Have a great day! -Ronald

                    A:  Hi there, thanks for the question. Our Restoration Primer is a good choice for priming/sealing MDF. I did want to point out that primer doesn't hold up to the elements in the same way paint does and should be top-coated with paint within 30 days. Have a great day! -Ronald
