Can I paint the post?

Sorry but I haven't even installed ours yet due to the deep freeze/snow. I would assume that if you contacted a paint professional or paint store they would have a specific type of paint for this type of purpose.

i would guess that you could sand, primer and paint it. It is made of a very shiny PVC that looks great, but if white isn't your color....

Jac I have a New England arbors post light in my front yard and the color is white, it has been there for about three years and it still looks like new.I have had a lot of compliments on it. I also put my street address on it and they are in goldtone numbers.I'm sure that it could be painted a different color although it is a PVC texture, so you would have to take it by a paint store and asked them what type of pay would stick to the texture of the PVC.I hope that your post turns out as well as mine, and hope that you get as many compliments as I have had about my post and light.By the way, I mounted my post over a 4 x 4 post to give it more strength which was a good idea.J Howell Jacksonville Florida Jac I have a New England arbors post light in my front yard and the color is white, it has been there for about three years and it still looks like new.I have had a lot of compliments on it.

I don't believe so as they are made of a sturdy PVC type plastic. I don't think paint would adhere to the surface.

The post is vinyl, you could use special paint which works on vinyl. Fusion, made by Krylon, available at Walmart would work.

yes you can. the post just gives you a higher vantage point. there are different lengths of seat posts too, so keep that in mind when or if you go to buy a post.

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.

You could paint. Or better to sand lightly, remove dust w tack cloth & stain&varnish.

Yes this can be painted . I paint mines . You can use ANY kind of paint or you can spray paint it also .

I really don't know if you could spray paint it. The material is very shiny, like tin foil. Spray paint may just run off. I think experimenting with regular tin foil would give you an answer.

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

the color is taupe but it is designed to be mounted. you could put 4x4 wood post in the ground and mount it to them

I guess you can, if you're careful about it. I wouldn't know what type of paint to use. I just used crayons on mine.

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

Yes it can be painted if wanted. I'd suggest getting it powder coated. It will look the best and be strong against ever bumbling it without peeling. I hoped this helped

yes, as a matter of fact i just tried that few mins ago.It is also sandable, not so much paintable since it doesny absord paint like wood does.

I think you could! Depending on the kind of paint, you might need to sand the exterior walls a little. I "wallpapered" the inside using scrapbook paper and Mod Podge, but those walls aren't painted.

Yes, It says on the package that it can be painted (although I can't vouch for the results because I haven't painted mine yet).

You will have to purchase a post separately. In my case it was used for decorative purposes only.

You probably could, but i tried doing it with sharpie and it doesn't stay alone so make sure when you're done you cover it with a clear coat of something

I think yes you could paint it. But a strong advice think twice. Like " kireviewer " said, please contact Polk before you do it. If not the end finish with your job will not give you a good result. Good luck to to you.
