Hello @bbarry
Welcome to the Bunnings Workshop community. It's sensational to have you join us, and thanks for sharing your question about painting your vanity.
If it is a laminated surface, I suggest using the Dulux Renovation range. It looks like the doors are still in very good condition and just needs a bit of a makeover. Painting your vanity doors is the perfect way to give your vanity a new look without spending a bundle.
The key to the entire process is preparation. If the doors are prepared properly without skipping a step, the primer and main coat will adhere properly to the laminate surface. To have a superior finish means using good quality brushes and rollers. A good paint job can be ruined all because of a cheap brush.
Don't be in a rush always allow the paint to totally dry off before putting on the next coat. Sometimes we need to add extra drying time especially when the weather is either too humid or too rainy.
