Can this item be painted or is the finish too glossy to accept paint?

I wouldn't hesitate to paint it. If in doubt, scuff a bit with sandpaper first.

We're pretty sure it can be painted - it certainly keeps everything organized!

this is clear coated. It will not take paint very easy. There is no way to take it apart to sand it so you can't get a good base to hold the paint.

It's not glossy at all. If I were to paint it, I'd give it just a fine sanding to get a better chance that there would be no problem.

If the existing paint is glossy or semi-gloss, I would suggest priming or at least scuffing it with steel wool. I would not, however, recommend this paint.

Yes, it can be painted. Must be good paint with a clear coat over, otherwise it will chip easily.

Neither really. It's a wood grain finish painted black. I would say that it is not Hi-Gloss, not Flat, and maybe somewhere between Semi-Gloss and Satin finish.

You could probly paint on it with a nice acrylic or fabric paint. It's a fairly smooth fabric.

Yes, it should be paintable (that's a word now), but just know that you may have to do some drilling of your own for the screws for the doors. I had to drill the insides of the cabinet myself for the doors to fit on because the holes drilled by the manufacturer were set too far into the frame. Looks decent, but the work is a bit chintzy.

I sprayed mine with polyurethane to cover up some mess ups.. worked out real well... so I assume you could paint it as well..

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.

I think you could paint it, with a primer. It's a little like veneer, so paint might not go on well by itself. It's a sturdy unit, but dings and chips easily. A good strong paint would improve it a lot.

It has a semi gloss finish to it. I think it would be fine to paint as long as it was either primed or slightly sanded. There are parts where some baskets have roughed up the shelves and those spots would easily be painted. This particular item has really held up great over the years and it will last a long time. Very well built. Good luck!

I don't think you can paint it and wouldn't look right because it has a gloss on it

I would not recommend painting it. The veneer finish is very smooth. It would not hold paint very well.

Probably. It's a glossy.extra thick card stock if that helps. They really looked cool when we hung them up. I would think painting would work.fine

The surface is pretty smooth and would not take paint well. However, if you could find a primer that would bond with plastic well, then I bet you could paint it.

I think it can be painted, however this furniture is made out of cheap cardboard that crumbles when you try to assemble the pieces.

I didn't paint mine but don't see why you can't. Use a semi gloss, it wears better.

It is high gloss so you would have to sand it in order to paint it. If you have the time and want a specific look you cannot find else where than it may be worth the work.
