  • Can I paint my Chinese cabinet?
    1 Answer
    Lotus Gallery
    Lotus GallerySeptember 23, 2020

    Yes, you can paint your Chinese cabinet, though unless it is in poor condition, doing so is usually frowned upon. You will have to sand down the surface beforehand, as most Chinese cabinets have a lacquer finish.
