1. Identify the Condition of the Cabinets Identify the surfaces where the paint will be applied. In most cases, only qualified professionals can determine whether the existing color is in good condition or not. So, if the paint is not in good condition, it has to be removed first for the application of a new one. American Hill Country Painting and Remodeling
2. Find the Right Paint Not all wall paints are suited for cabinetry. Make sure the paint you choose will withstand the regular cleaning done on kitchen cabinets. Reliance on professional painters can make this process simpler as they know the best paint for kitchen cabinet. American Hill Country Painting and Remodeling
3. Select a Color That Matches Other Appliances Familiarize yourself with the colors of your appliances along with all possible accent colors. The color should not make some kitchen appliances look like they don’t belong there. American Hill Country Painting and Remodeling American Hill Country Painting and Remodeling
4. Keep All the Hardware Aside Remove any electrical equipment to ensure that nothing is broken or accidentally painted on. Paint in the equipment could ruin the inner workings of your appliances. American Hill Country Painting and Remodeling
5. Clean the Surfaces Your cabinets should be free of any dirt or grease. Any remaining particles could get stuck on the wall and if taken out in subsequent cleanings, could create gaps in the paint. American Hill Country Painting and Remodeling
6. Cover Other Surfaces Painter’s tape can prevent the spread of the paint to the wall or floor. Also, tarps, old blankets, and more can service as cheap covers for important pieces. All areas that you want to protect should be covered. American Hill Country Painting and Remodeling
7. Sandpaper Your cabinets need to be clean and smooth for the paint to stick properly. You can guarantee a smooth surface by doing a once-over with sandpaper. American Hill Country Painting and Remodeling
8. Have Tack Cloths in Place Tack cloths are crucial in managing dust between coats. Upon cleaning all the surfaces, remove the tack cloth to deal with dirt and debris from the job. American Hill Country Painting and Remodeling
9. Ensure the All Hardware Is Clean Clean all the hardware before re-installation to ensure your appliances work correctly. Along with enhancing the look of your kitchen and cabinets, it will also improve safety (i.e. removing crumbs from the bottom of toasters). American Hill Country Painting and Remodeling
10. Choose the Right Painter Not all painters are equal. For instance, some painters specialize in just exterior jobs. Ask for credentials before locking in painters for a new contract. American Hill Country Painting and Remodeling
