is the cabinet paintable?

certainly looks like you could paint it; you might need to do some mild sanding firstbut, it's a pretty expensive gamble.I would go to the Polk website and ask them. They have fairly responsive customer service.

Although I haven't tried it, the surface looks like it should accept paint just fine. Maybe try an inconspicuous area of the speaker first as a test.

I think yes you could paint it. But a strong advice think twice. Like " kireviewer " said, please contact Polk before you do it. If not the end finish with your job will not give you a good result. Good luck to to you.

it's wood veneer with matt finish. yes you can paint, The question is why? the beautify wood look finished. may be look for set that come with color finished, may be cheaper.

It has a nice woody finish to it, so I really don't think painting would be such a hot idea. However if you insist on doing it, you can paint it but I'm sure you will void warranty and it wont be easy to do a clean job.

I'm going by memory, so if someone corrects me they are probably right... the kit came with two small cans of paint, a nice little brush, a mini paint tray. You do not need to put a protective clear top coat over it, or primer. I did golden oak cabinets in my RV white and they needed 3-4 coats and still kind of have a 'shabby chic' look to them. I'm glad it wasn't my house, I will do the rest of the trailer cabinets in a dark colour instead.

I don't know - I left it the natural color because that is what I wanted anyway. I don't know enough about paints and stains to know if it is stainable. Sorry not to be more help! I really like the table though...

HI! I am not sure that the surface of these cabinets will allow paint to stick to it. It is a laminate. I hope this helps.

This cabinet is wood veneer, so it probably cannot be repainted. It is however very beautiful--nice cherry wood appearance. It looks great in my living room, and is much more pleasing to the eye than a metal file cabinet.

I believe you could painted. You may need to use a primer or sand lightly but you should be able to paint this vanity. Very good quality vanity.

I haven't tried it myself, but I don't see why you couldn't re-paint the vanity if you sand it down well and use proper products/equipment. The vanity doesn't have a lacquer finish like laminate cabinets do; it's wood. I've been very happy with the quality of the vanity for the price. You will need to calk around the shelf area where the legs attach every couple of years because the you get a little surface crack but it's nothing major and you really can't beat this vanity for the price.

It was already white to match my other cabinets in the bathroom, but I would assume that it is paintable as it is made of the same material as the other cabinets. No, there was absolutely no odor, and while assembly was a little difficult, taking into consideration that I am not "handy", I love the cabinet and am very happy with it.

Hello, yes this is probably paintable. I never painted it because I have a black car and its black. The item is a great fit and match to my 04 Nissan Altima.

It is paintable, but takes a considerable amount of work and patience. There is a plastic frame with a metal grill that has a cloth backing. First you remove the faceplate from the speaker (it's magnetically attached). Flipping the faceplate over you can see the metal tangs protruding thru the plastic grill, and bent over to hold it in place. Straighten the metal tangs and the metal can be pushed out, you will the be able to remove the cloth. I used a paint roller to paint the metal on both sides, and had my air nossle hooked up to an air compressor to blow out any clogged holes as I went along. Spray paint is best, but colors are slim. It took be a good 2 hours from start, dissassenbly, paint, wait between coats, let it dry, and the assembly. The result blends in nicely with the wall, and is worth the trouble in my opinion.

We used a stain on ours so you could certainly paint one. We used the stain before assembling it so it was easy.

I never painted mine, but I was told it could be painted. I would ask at a hardware store or call a professional painter.

Yes, it can be painted, but it should be abraded/primed so that it will accept & hold the paint without flaking.

I don't see why it couldn't be painted.....but, it is fairly nice as is....white with a tan trim....John Bonney

Sorry I cannot give a definitive answer since I haven't tried to paint it. It is lighter than the picture shows, however, it is an attractive piece. As we know, for perfection and having it exactly was we want, you have to pay. Price is right for this one. I also don't know much about paints. I believe it is doable but would have to gently take the top finish off. It may take a little effort but again cannot make any guarantees. Hope that was somewhat helpful.

yes, as a matter of fact i just tried that few mins ago. It is also sandable, not so much paintable since it doesny absord paint like wood does.
