Did anyone coat plastic? If yes, how durable is the finish? We ended with dark frame medicine cabinet and need to change it. Thank you!

This paint will most likely stick to plastic, but I would make sure to put a sealant on it (like a Golden brand sealant for indoors or outdoors depending on where you plan to put it.

Yes, depending upon how shiny veneer is you may need to lightly hand sand some. Also, if your cabinets look really good now you may be disappointed. I used this product on a fixer-upper I sold and espresso did a great job on the cabinets, but they were in such rough shape they should have been replaced. You can tell it is paint, so if you are ok with that then it's fine. I wouldn't use it to change appearance of good-looking cabinets.

I'm wondering if you coat with Water Seal before or after assembly. I want to be sure it gets assembled correctly before I do anything to it (in case of needing to return product) but I don't really want to take it back apart to water seal. I guess I answered my own question, but it would be great if any experts out there could offer some advice. The wood smells great!

I'm not sure if it's stained wood or just a finish coating, you should ask the seller. I will tell you that the inside of the drawers and storage cabinet are the same color as the outside, not just plain wood. The drawers are not dovetail style. The unit is very solidly built and if is just stained wood, it is very even. No brush strokes, etc.

There is a finish but not a strong one. I have had it for over 2 years now and it is still in pretty good shape. It only sustained damage to it when I moved about 6 months ago and a friends had put tape on it to keep the drawers closed during the move. When the tape was removed it took some of the paint with it. It also does have 1 small stain on top which I am not sure what it is from....but I am sure it is more of a fault of my own then the product as I do believe this product is very nice and I highly recommend it. I keep mu microwave and toaster oven on it and have no issues with heat with it. There is a finish but not a strong one. I have had it for over 2 years now and it is still in pretty good shape.

Yes the back is also finished. Its a very nice cabinet but the color is not as pictured at all. It is more an Aqua greenish blue. I was dissapointed in that, but kept it anyway.I wrote the company and they just said "thats the way it looks with the lights when you photograph it" They did give me a discount because it was not as pictured. Just so you know, its not that color blue. Hope this helps.

I bought the darker colour and yes it appears to be finished, but it is definately not the best finish. It's broken up into pieces, nothing solid. I think it's meant more to be in a corner.

The metallics take a bit longer than the flat and gloss finishes in my experience. You can thin it for better results, but using thinner coats of it straight from the bottle may work for you as well, depending on your painting technique (hand painted Vs. airbrush, etc.) Try thinner coats applied to the plastic model and doing multiple coats where applicable, first. If that doesn't/already isn't working, then try thinning it out progressively. You can practice on plastic spoons/knives to get your method down without running any potential risk with your model pieces.

It did not have a coating, so we applied a finish to it. It is very sturdy, and we love it.Norleen B.

Hello: dark cherry finish - I stained mine even darker to match cabinets and they looks awesome!

I agree with Sergio's response. However, the black coating on the wood is more of a shellac, rather than paint. When I was building the desk, I would have to "punch through" the shellac in order to screw something in. The screw holes may not be visible if you never use them.

I believe a matte finish, but we putt a clear protector coat over it to protect and easy cleaning. I believe we use the same brand for the clear coat which gave it a semigloss look.. We refinished our bathroom cabinet with this. product.

I finished mine with Liquid Plastic clear finish, much more durable than shellac. It is an imported wood somewhat like a butcher block design, but looks very nice when finished. I also put formica on the top to blend with our kitchen counter, making it very attractive, although you do not have to do that, it looked beautiful finished natural. Hope this helps. regards GG

I used the wall paper to cover a cabinet and then spray painted it dark blue. It looks great. The material feels like thick paper. It took the spray paint well, but I would do a few coats. If it gets nicked I can see the white show through, but I only did two coats. Hope this helps

Hi Dody. This product is made of plastic. If it was to be used on a regular basis it might not be a good buy for you, but other wise it is a very good and nice cabinet. Good luck, Rocky

I just purchased the Chesterfield medicine cabinet and the floor cabinet...honestly, appears black to blackish-brown. Depending on the lightsource it changes. Still very coffee bean (dark). Some of the brighter light bulbs or sunlight/daylight can affect the color.
