on the right hand side corner there is a download button and on you tube there are lot  of tutorials ,it is pretty easy as you keep using.

Bob, how do you paint a MDF board? tried once ,became very messy  , I applied a primer with a brush(which did not come out smooth) after drying applied the paint again the bubbles remained and finally gave up! Love to know how you do it or anyone else does please.

Thanks
