Anyone know if they are painted, laminate, or vinyl or what?

My untrained eye can't tell. It looks like I can see wood grain texture through them. So I'm thinking they are painted.

Trying to restore one, but want it as close to original as I can get. Thinking I'll belt sand the sides down to bare wood, redo the busted up corners and refinish.

Here's my other post about particle board repairs.


I've seen the vinyl at Home Depot (same as HAPP?) doesn't seem like it's quite the same, although it would look nice. I suppose I could try painting and if it looks like poo poo I can put the vinyl on the sides and call it good.

If it's paint, what paint do you all use? And I have a commercial automotive sprayer so mixing wouldn't be a problem.

Thanks!
