anyone painted a filing cabinet?
Mrs has decided that my extremely functional and useful Bisley filing cabinet (in brown and cream!) Is too ugly and she wants to paint it.
Anyone else done this?
I was thinking key it and then use Plasticoat?
Cheers,
James

Yep
I did 20 years ago in a nice Plasicote Biege
Lived in the bedroom in 2 houses and now in my study
Fits so much better with the decor at home

Yep! Painted a 6 drawer one, about 6 years ago, with smooth black Hammerite, using a small paint roller, looks fine (no brush marks)

Normal gloss paint is as good as anything.
