Sauder does not reccomend that you paint any of their models. It would void the warrenty.

You could definitely paint the box. The finish in it isn't so heavy (varnish) that the paint wouldn't stick. I actually think that it would be a nice finish if part of the wood was exposed in some spots. Good luck!

At least glue. I did not realize that the model needed this and did not give the model as a gift because the child was too young to work at this level. The model does not say what types of paints are needed. So I would have to say yes. You will need to buy the glue and some paints.

You should be able to...as long as it's properly primed before use (to ensure it doesn't smudge, ruin the drawings/illustrations).

The paper part is absorbent, so I don't think it would take well to paints. Perhaps a sharpie marker or pastel crayons would work.

The cover is fabric over a hard cover. Yes, you can use markers, pen, or paint on the cover. I have not tried using markers to know if lines will bleed.

I have not tried painting mine but based on the material you probably could. I would definitely give it a good sanding first to help remove the gloss (coating?) and use paint or primer that has some tackiness to it. Hope that helps.

No the minitures are not painted. However it's a lot of fun to paint them :)

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

Yes, it can be painted. It does need to cure for 24 hours. I've also used something called Bondo which I got from Sherwin Williams but is sold elsewhere. That cures quicker. Make sure if you use the PC Products, you use the sealer

Yes, it is definitely paintable. :) In fact, I was thinking of doing the same thing myself.

It's not made of the cheapie plywood or particle board. I don't think you could paint it; but the contact paper or similar could be used. They are really nice and sturdy.

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.

No, I just ordered the storage case and the new pen will not fit within the plastic form. The books still fit of course.

Sure you can paint it. It is mostly pressboard but it is all wood of some sort. I would recommend roughing it up with a really light sandpaper or wiping it down with TSP to give it some tooth for the paint to adhere to but then you should have no problem. Good luck!

Yes, you could paint it. I thought of painting it myself if I didn't like the color. The louvered doors in the front are solid so the painting would be easy.

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
