White-painted trims around windows, interior?

[EmMi]

What is best used as white-painted moldings internally around the windows?
They should have a width of about 140-200mm.
Is there only one option or can some form of white-painted MDF be used?

There is white laminated and white lacquered MDF in different widths, lacquered/laminated on 3 sides, at most hardware stores.

However, it is usually high-gloss. If you want semi-gloss, you'll probably have to paint it yourself. Additionally, the nail heads are visible on pre-painted surfaces.

Is it really cladding at 210mm? There are pre-painted window niches in MDF, but they have an unpainted edge...

I myself built a box out of regular white shelf should last for a hundred years easily wiped off... never needs painting ....

Oops, I'm probably thinking of salning.

There is pre-lacquered MDF available. Beijer

Do you usually paint them afterwards to hide nail heads?
It says on Beijer's website: "Place a drop of water on the nail head so the wood rises around the nail and the head disappears, presto." How well does that work?
I was thinking that if they are painted on 3 or 4 sides, you should be able to have the cut side facing inwards, invisible. Or will you end up having to paint them anyway? I thought we would buy pre-painted white ones so we could skip painting them. If you have to paint them anyway, you might as well buy unpainted ones...

Looking at the link that Larsa posted to Beijer and "smygbräda" MDF, I noticed that one edge is slightly angled on these boards. I've also seen that there's an angle around the windows and have wondered how to fit the interior molding against the window's angles. But maybe there's a connection?

The nail heads are barely visible, improve a bit with 0502 in the nail hole, and wipe away everything that comes next to the hole at once, and it will be fine.

We used glued laminated timber, of the same type as the shelves in regular warehouse shelving. It turned out really well and was easy to work with.

With knots?

The nail heads are barely visible, improve a bit with 0502 in the nail hole, and wipe away everything that comes beside the hole right away, and it will be fine

0502, is it some kind of sealant? Or the NCS number of a standard white paint that's used?
I assume you use some form of decorative nails or do you clip off the heads?

 

[Mäster]

Excuse the vagueness, 0502 y is a color number, I believe it's called, available pre-mixed in every paint store, I would say..
that color usually works for nail holes on most white moldings,,

Dyckert is usually used.. then the head doesn't need to be pinched or anything..

 

[Fjäril]

Yes, it wasn't visible when painted. (I hope I understood you correctly, I mean in the gap that occurs if you move a window, for example, after having built on the facade.)

With twigs?
