can you paint these cabinets?

These are formica/laminate finished cabinets and I left mine the way they came. But I think you can search how to paint Formica finishes. I found this link that might be able to help:http://askville.amazon.com/Formica-kitchen-cabinets-painted/AnswerViewer.do?requestId=41830753

My guess is yes, but keep in mind they have a very smooth finish so every drip would show. I would take a door to a paint store like Lowes or Home Depot and ask them if any primer or special preparation is necessary. These are wonderful cabinets. I had my son put two 32" toppers over my washer and dryer. They look great and provide tons of storage. Good luck!

I never tried to paint the Prepac Elite but I would think that you can. Although I would also think that because of the surface, the paint would chip fairly easily. I suggest that you talk to a local paint store like Benjamin Moore

Yes, but not easy. The cabinets are covered in a laminate. You will need special prep and special paint. It will be like painting a kitchen cabinet. Paint stores and big box stores sell paint kits for painting cabinets.

almost anything can be painted. the question is if i wanted to paint what base paint do i use. it is fine the way it is for me. the manufacturer has a better idea. saw nothing in the instuctions for altering the storage boxe

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.

Can you paint right on them? Then can you use polish remover and start over?

Yes. Very easy to do and looks great. I spray painted mine black and can't tell that they were not professionally painted.

Don't see why not. The furniture comes unassembled, so that would be the time to paint. The two drawers on the bottom right have five narrow vertical grooves that might be tough to get to look good.

You would have to paint them yourself. It only comes with the one set of options.

i don't think so unless you have some top coating on them already. Watch the DVD that comes with the paint. You will need to clean them prior to painting of course but unless you have some glossy finish you should be good. But that is just my opinion and not knowing what you are painting over I strongly suggest watching it first. I painted over dark laminate and had no issue.

It probably could but you would have to drill it out that way. It comes pre-drilled....but the holes are tiny and I think would b easy to fill in and paint over. Its really a decent cabinet for the price. We are happy with it.....we bought it to place in a cubbyhole in our new bathroom ...its great!

Yes. After looking at it again, I seems the face is wood and the shelves are composite. I'm certain it can be painted and would use a primer first.

Did you clean your cabinets well before painting...I have had for several months; but they still look wonderful.....

I would say yes if you sanded them you could paint them. Stain... not sure. Good luck!

My son painted them. I know that he used spray paint, but I think that most paints would work on this.

I think you can. Color is gray if I remember I used paint after it dried to match color.

Not really sure, but I'd imagine if you had the right kind of paint, you probably could...seems like you can paint anything these days. Seems like the crafty websites love to use spray paint for a lot of old furniture, but I don't know if you need a primer (this is assuming you're looking to paint the entire unit). Maybe Better Homes and Gardens, or some other DIY site may have some insight on painting particle board furniture. If you're actually only looking to paint designs on the piece, you might consider painting a little spot on the inside of the unit, or some other inconspicuous spot, to test it out first before committing.

YES! I actually plan on doing just that in my kitchen...I have tall white cabinets so they will look perfect! They knobs are big...but if you have the right size cabinets they will work...and they look amazing! I used them for a vanity that i made but they would look great in the kitchen too! Good Luck!
