Furniture Painting in Abu Dhabi
Good furniture does not need to be thrown away because the finish is dated or worn. ALHUD Technical LLC provides furniture painting for tables, cabinets, wardrobes, chairs, drawers and shelves in Abu Dhabi homes, offices and shops.
Painting is often the cheapest way to change a room. The difference between a good job and a poor one is almost entirely preparation.

- Cabinets and kitchen units: doors and frames
- Wardrobes and drawers: carcasses and fronts

If the timber should stay natural, see our furniture wood polishing service.
Paint or Polish?
Choose paint when you want a colour change or the old finish is badly damaged. Choose polish when the timber is attractive and you want to keep the grain. Laminate and veneer pieces usually suit paint better than polish. We advise after seeing the piece.
Preparation and Priming
Grease and old polish stop paint from sticking. We clean, sand, fill damage and apply a bonding primer that suits the surface. Laminate and glossy surfaces need special primers. Rushing this step causes peeling and chipping later.
Brushed or Sprayed Finish
Spraying gives the smoothest finish on flat panels, doors and tabletops, while brushing suits small pieces and awkward shapes. Cabinet doors often come off and are sprayed in the workshop. For cabinet faults, see our cabinet repair page.
Protective Topcoats
Tables and kitchen units take wear, spills and heat. A durable lacquer or topcoat protects the paint and makes cleaning easy. We use finishes suited to the use, from hard-wearing dining tables to low-wear decorative pieces.
