  1. How To Paint Kitchen Cupboards

  2. Take Any Cupboard Drawers Out Pull all drawers out of the cabinets and remove any hardware connecting the drawers to the outer cupboard shells.

  3. Remove The Cupboard Doors Take the screws out of hinges and pull the doors off of frames. Once the doors are off, go back and remove any hardware attached to the cabinet frames.

  4. Wash All The Cupboard Surfaces Use a grease-removing cleaner and a sponge or soft cloth to remove dirt and stains before you paint kitchen cupboards. Rinse the cupboards with water and let them dry completely.

  5. Fix Any Blemishes By Filling Scratches Whether you've got scratches, scuffs, gouges, or other unsightly marks, a professional looking cupboard painting isn't complete without a smooth surface. Be sure to let the compound dry.

  6. Rough Up The Cabinet Surfaces With Sandpaper Lightly rub all areas you will paint with a 120-grit sandpaper. This will help the primer and paint adhere better when you paint the cabinets.

  7. Prime the sanded surfaces Primer is an undercoat that's applied before the coat of paint. Paint that is applied directly to wood will dry prematurely, as wood is very porous and soaks up the solvent quickly.

  8. Wait for the primer to dry, and then sand the primed surface with a finer sandpaper

  9. Tape Off Areas You Don't Want To Paint Tape around the inside edge of drawers or cabinets if you do not paint to bleed into the insides. Be sure to tape around ceiling edges or walls where the cupboards meet.

  10. Paint Interiors First Use a trim brush to paint all small cabinet frame areas, and continue painting inside the cupboards with a small roller or brush.

  11. Paint The Cupboard Doors Next Roll paint on the doors with a large roller brush to cover bigger areas at one time. Paint the edges of doors, cabinets and drawers with a small brush. Remember to paint the door and drawer backsides.

  12. Let the paint dry completely on all doors, drawers and cabinet frames

  13. Apply A Second Coat If Possible

  14. Re-attach All Cupboard Doors And Drawers
