We do not use lacquer for a finish. Barker currently uses conversion varnish (solvent) paints for a durable end product. You can certainly order any material you want including the oaks if you prefer for a painted wood door. We no longer use MDF, and have since replaced with HDF for all mdf labeled products. We can spray any and all wood types offered, but some materials will have more pronounced grain showing through as a texture under the paint.
