Q:I want to get some 1" x 3" (actual cut size: approx 3/4" x 2 5/8") composite wood to replace the oak slats in my park bench. I want it pre-colored in black or charcoal gray so as not to have to paint. What colors are available?

A: As far as I know, this is only available in white. It seems to be a vinyl clad mdf board, but does accept paint and spackling. May not be the best choice for outdoor use on your park bench.

Q:Thinking of using this to create a bookshelf (2 shelves-8ft wide). What is the max load the wood can handle if 3 brackets are put in place every 32 inches or 4 brackets, every 24 inches (I need to check how wide my studs are apart)? Thanks.

A: The material is somewhat rigid. An 8 foot span probably would want some center support as opposed to ends only.

A: Lil,
MDF board can hold 50 lbs per square foot. This is assuming that there is a support on both ends with proper spacing, and has support at least every 17". Other factors such as thinckness of the board will have an effect as well.

A: Hello sam,
MDF is less expensive than wood but it is also not the best choose when exposed to moisture and humidity. Also it does not have the structural strength to hold fasteners and rigidity of wood.
It cuts the same as wood.

A: I believe so, as long as the formula will work on plastics. Latex will not stick, even with sanding.
