Hi Steve,

I put several panels up in my garage, and have been happy with it.  The =
fixtures are much heavier that the typical peg board stuff, which is =
nice.

The only thing I did wrong was I attached it to concrete walls, and only =
bolted it at the top and bottom.  So the center bows out with humidity =
change, or when heavy loads.  But it hasn=E2=80=99t been bad enough that =
I=E2=80=99ve gone back to add fasteners.

Mine was unfinished MDF, which I painted white.
