IS PAINTING KITCHEN CABINETS A GOOD IDEA?

YES! Painting your kitchen cabinets can be one of the most cost-effective ways to enhance your kitchen with a fresh, updated look without the expense or hassle of a complete remodel. However, preparation is vital to achieving a professional, long-lasting finish.

HOW LONG DO PAINTED CABINETS LAST?

This is another question we get asked a lot. The longevity of painted cabinets depends on the quality of the paint and the preparation work. When done correctly, with high-quality materials, as we do at Cabinet Painters Experts, a painted cabinet finish can last 5-10 years or even longer.

DO I NEED TO CLEAR COAT OVER THE PAINT TO PROTECT MY CABINETS?

We add a special hardening agent to the cabinet paint so a clear coat is not required.

CAN YOU GET RID OF THE GRAIN ON THE OAK CABINETS?

Yes & No: The goal of grain filling isn’t to create a completely smooth surface or erase the oak’s natural texture. Instead, it’s about making those dark grain lines less visible by aligning their color with the paint. Your cabinets still have the charm of oak, just without the contrasting lines.
