Don't you see the layers of wood once you carve into the MDO? And then how do you waterproof it? I seal the edges of my MDO signs with Gorilla Glue before I paint them. I would think carving into MDO would leave large areas of exposed layers of plywood just waiting to delaminate. Has anyone seen a carved MDO sign last outside for any lenght of time? I'd be very curious.

It is MDO primed , and this Sign is for indoor even though the edge were seal 3 time plus two coats of paint and two coats of clearr coat. I will fell very confident that is well done sealed that you can even use oudoor.
