How come my cabinet turned yellow when I painted over the chalk paint?
I repainted my jewelry armoire with white Rustoleum Chalk Paint. When I painted the matte sealer (also from Rustoleum) it left yellow streaks all over it.
I've painted (cheap) wood cabinets, laminate cabinets, etc I see no reason why you could not paint pressboard. But -- especially- with pressboard -- I would take the extra (important!) step of using a good primer like Kils -- before two coats of a good latex paint.
