Can these be painted like any other kind of wooden door?


Er... yes, why ever not?


No, I just wondered. Someone "in the trade" said you weren't supposed
to paint them.

I'm wondering if it's worth it, given a new one can be bought for £15
or so.


Are you talking about the hollow MDF type, that are white when supplied?


Yes.

They are provided pre-primed, that's all: you still have to paint
them with undercoat and top coat just like any other door or painting job.


Can't you just leave them pre-primed if that's the colour you want?
LOL
