[quote=Anonymous]I painted the inside and the frames on mine and had the doors professionally lacquered to match. The lacquer looks like paint but is much smoother. It looked great for a couple of months, but I now regret the lacquer because it has cracked and chipped as the solid wood doors expand and contract due to seasonal moisture changes. This is mostly attributable to the fact that my doors are two pieces--a frame with an raised inset panel. I'm not sure what would have happened had I painted the doors instead of using the professional process, but I would be cautious if your doors, like most, incorporate two pieces. I painted some in a different house and they've held up well, but those doors were thin, one-piece slabs--very 1970s.[/quote]
