Sanding and repainting solid wood Magnet doors possible?

Featured Replies

Thinking of buying a Ludow kitchen from Magnet. The range has a 'solid wood finish' which I actually think looks slightly plasticky and cheap (see picture). The doors are apparently solid wood. Very happy to go with Magnet but would it be easy to sand down this finish and re paint with a posh paint? Anyone recommend a service in London that does this? Or got any hints and tips? Much appreciated. N

Doors might be "wood" but aren't "solid timber" ...from their website  "Construction: Solid ash frame, with MDF ash, veneered centre panel".

 

If you are thinking about buying a kitchen from an expensive place like M.gnet, who's main business is selling and then stripping and then painting it, it would be best just to go to somewhere that sprays to any colour.  May even be cheaper to go to a cabinet maker who does system type work and get them to make one,  Ludlow is a Shaker design that all suppliers do.
