[quote=Anonymous][quote=Anonymous]Cabinets need durable paint given the amount of use, it’s a difficult diy. The process is clean/strip any existing paint, sand, clean with tac cloth, prime, then sand/clean for 2-3 coats. You really need a spray gun to get an even coating, foam rollers can lead to an “orange peel” texture. To get a factory durable finish you need to use a 2k poly product like Milessi or Renner. If you are painting oak you need to fill grains. Restraining is even harder because you’ll have to strip the existing stain. Depending how old the cabinets are it may be cheaper to buy new or just get new doors, it is an expensive process to do correctly.[/quote] Cabinets are maple. The doors at least. The box is MDF.[/quote]
