Has anyone painted the inside of your reefer cabinet white?

Think I’m going to paint the inside of my 750xxl cabinet white. Anyone else done this?

I've seen several both painted white or made from acrylic.

They look sweet! Usually the people whom have done this have super nice setups as well, very sleek.

White would definitely make the salt creep less visible.

I bought the white reefer stand but they could have at least made the inside white too. I can't stand when companies cut corners. Luckily I haven’t assembled it yet so I can go ahead and paint it first.

I painted my bowfront stand white inside and out. So much easier to see inside to work on things.

White is brighter and you don't see salt creep. I painted my DIY Stand .

After building my stand i used Rustoleum Gloss White appliance Epoxy paint on the inside of my stand. Almost 3 years later and the paint is still in perfect condition. First I primed the bare wood, then caulked and applied two coats of paint

Thanks, I will pick some up at home depot. Did you use the can or spray paint? What primer did you use?

Yes all our tanks get painted with high white semi gloss Valspar Duramax or High Endurance.

Here was what I painted the bowfront stand with.

I have an XXL inbound and am thinking of doing the same... did you ever end up painting yours? If you painted yours, can you offer any tech tips or insight? Rough the surface and/or prime? How’s it holding up?

I read your build thread, but wasn’t paying attention to see if you painted it. Time to reread your thread (which was enjoyable the first time and I sure will be fruitful the second time).

Hmmmm.... you have me thinking.

Here’s a video of the paint you suggested above. Seems easy enough.
