Vinyl wrap or thermoformed doors are popular way of getting a colour onto a profiled door without the expense of lacquer.
A sheet of coloured vinyl is laid over doors and drawer fronts in a vacuum oven. The vacuum is used to draw the vinyl down over the panels whilst the heat softens it, allowing it to take on the shape of the door whilst liquifying the glue that binds it to the panel. The result is an durable and attractive coating at a lower cost than lacquer.
Vinyil is easy to clean and should last many years but it is important to ensure that water resistant MDF is used. This is usually referred to as MUF.
