Browse Forums Kitchen Corner 1 Nov 07, 2014 6:33 pm We just recieved a call from our painter and he has asked if we want to paint our feature pantry door the colour of the trim, or clear lacquered. Originally I thought we would paint it to match kitchen cupboards, but the painter seems to think it would look better just a clear lacquer. So I guess I'm after opinions! The kitchen: unfortunately I don't have any photos with the pantry door closed! http://i48.photobucket.com/albums/f213/raealex/7A22F52D-A672-42B8-8E89-682FDC5F76D9.jpg Pantry door: http://i48.photobucket.com/albums/f213/raealex/836E1F47-E667-4A3C-A3E7-C9BF66E4A141.jpg Thanks!

Pics in 3Nov 07, 2014 6:50 pm Hi Raemit, Are your floors still needing to be sealed or are they finished? If floors staying the colour in your pic I would agree with paint the same as trim. I'm no expert though Good luck! Custom build Northern NSW viewtopic.php?f=31&t=72217 Re: Pantry door: paint trim colour or natural stain? Pics in 4Nov 07, 2014 6:58 pm What's the worst you can do ? stain the door and if it doesn't look right or suit you, paint it the same colour of the kitchen. If you paint it, then you can not go back and stain it later. Your painter might have the right idea, as he's no doubt done plenty of these before.
