Se utiliza para lacar muebles. Yo he encontrado "MDF lacquered" pero no estoy segura de que sea lo mismo.

lacquered MDF
Explanation:
MDF (sigla en inglés de Medium Density Fibreboard)

es.wikipedia.org/wiki/Tablero_de_fibra_de_densidad_media

"Colored lacquer imparts a deeper, richer tone to MDF than either paint or stain. Colored lacquer can add brilliant hues of red, blue, black or white to MDF. To use colored lacquer, the surface of the MDF is first sanded with 180-grit sandpaper. An undercoat of thin, clear lacquer is applied. When the clear lacquer is dry after about 20 minutes, one, two or more coats of colored lacquer can be applied. For an even deeper tone, clear lacquer can then be sprayed on top of the colored lacquer."
