How to change the color of my bathroom cabinet?
Ok i know this might seem like a really dunmb ? but i do need help as i have never done any sort of house project before.
The cabinets in my bathroom are painted white (Plain with no gloss or other finish) and i want to change it to the hard wood finish to match the toilet seat. Do i just go and get the paint and paint directly over it or do i have to replace the whole thing.
You will need to take the paint off the cabinet either by sanding or stripping it with a paint stripper. Apparently the toilet seat is stained not painted,which is two very different things.. Stain you brush on wipe off . It highlight’s wood grain and gives it color. You might run in to a problem with the cabinet not being real wood. Perhaps that’s why its painted. Its possible its MDF or just a a laminate coated MDF which you will not be able to stain. Until you take the paint off its hard too say. If it is real wood make sure you get all the paint off, stain it and I recommend top coating it with a polyurethane 2-3 coats especially because its in the bathroom. Polyurethane will protect it from water.
