| We are remodeling (resurfacing, really) our master bathroom. Our current cabinets are original 1970s that I'm sure have been repainted white or some variation of it about a thousand times. We don't have it in the budget to replace the cabinets, so I was wondering if we can paint them a high-gloss dark brown? If so, any color suggestions? I use Sherwin-williams paints. I was thinking about something at the bottom of the paint chip -- too dark?? Thanks y'all! |

We are painting our vanity SW black bean at 60% saturation. They are dark but impressive. We are having dark floors, bainbrook granite and grayish brown walls. It's still a work in process.
We did oil based satin finish. |

I painted my vanity black and used a very high gloss paint. It's not the best picture I took it with my phone but it might give you an idea in how a dark color looks.
