Seal or primer it first or you'll spend a small fortune in paint on it.

just primer ,color and thats it?

Watered down wood glue or use roll on paint and seal the whole box up so that way your first layer of primer or color doesnt just soak in. BOndo works too just coat it very thin and sand it. Ive seen members use resin too.

im gonna use resin its easier to use than wood filler or bondo

i would say also put some clear coat or something to finish it off so you don't scuff it every time you move the darn thing.

i like to use a foam roller and roll my primer coat on, it covers way better than spray paint. I like to use a oil based primer, like seal grip, or pro-block. but i always have that stuff sitting around, seing as i am a painter.

So it would be better after resin its gonna be primer (better if it's with foam roller), and then clear coat before paint?

You only need to seal the wood with resin or primer or whatever.

It's just there so the wood doesn't soak up a ton of paint.

Then paint.

Then, if you want, clearcoat to protect the paint.
