20% Off Cabinet Refinishing
Refinishing your cabinets can give your kitchen a whole new look without the cost of a complete remodel. Here's a basic guide to get you started.
Preparation
Remove hardware: This includes hinges, knobs, and pulls.
Clean thoroughly: Use a degreaser to remove any grease or grime.
Sand: Start with a coarser grit (120-150) to remove any finish. Gradually move to a finer grit (220-320) for a smoother surface.
Fill imperfections: Use wood filler to fill any dents or holes. Sand it smooth after it dries.
Priming and Painting
Prime: Apply a coat of primer designed for cabinets or woodwork. This will ensure the paint adheres properly and provides a uniform base.
Paint: Apply several coats of paint, allowing each coat to dry completely before applying the next. Choose a paint formulated for cabinets or woodwork.
Finishing Touches
Apply a topcoat: A clear topcoat will protect the paint and give it a glossy or matte finish.
Reattach hardware: Replace the hinges, knobs, and pulls.
