Hey, I want to paint over a small drawer set that is covered in laminate.
Can I do this? Or can't you paint over laminate?
The paint is High Gloss.
:DThanks.

Thanks for the help.
The site looks good.
I just have a tin of high gloss paint that I need to use for something.. Guess I can save it for something else.
Cheers. :D
ETA: I have a wooden desk with a varnish finish. Can I paint over varnish in High Gloss? Or would you recommend I sand the varnish back before painting?

I just used the method on door frames which were high gloss enamel and a set of linen cupboard doors which were white Laminate boards. I painted both of them with semi gloss enamel.
I have also test run it a while back as a base coat for the white knights tile paint. I did 1 tile (spare ones from the garage) with WK primer and tile paint and 1 with ESP, no primer and tile paint. I thought esp gave a thinner tougher finish - tried scratching them with keys.
I did not like the tile paint either why, I left the tiles, dug out all the grout and regrouted a different colour and added a border tile, looked brand new.
(oh, hint for all, I tried every electrical method you can think of (dremel grout removal tool - useless, grinder - dust every where and scratches and others ) to remove the grout, best, easiest and cleanest method is a tile grout saw and elbo grease) - you can tell the tiles are painted not like their ads which make them look like they were made that way.
