Preparation is Critical

Painting kitchen cabinets require specialized skills. There is a correct way and wrong way to doing this home improvement project. Many of the cabinets we’ve seen painted are not done the correct way. Kitchen cabinets are a unique place in your home that you utilize a great deal. Since your cabinets are touched, opened and interacted with constantly they require special treatment. They are not like the walls in your home that are typically untouched. Therefore, you need to have your cabinets painted the right way.

When you are painting kitchen cabinets, the foundation is very important.

Here’s an overview of the preparation we follow when painting kitchen cabinets:

  • Cover and protect all surfaces
  • Remove all hardware
  • Label all doors and drawers
  • Remove all doors and drawers
  • Buff sand all surfaces with sandpaper
  • Wipe all surfaces with a de-glossing agent
  • Apply one coat of bonding primer
  • Apply one coat of primer (needed only if wood is an open grain like oak or cabinets have a dark stain)
  • Buff sand in-between primer coats

The Top Coat and Finish Coats

The next stage is to paint the kitchen cupboards with a great inside trim product. We utilize an acrylic paint that dries quick and cures strong with a smooth finish. Spraying all the door and drawer fronts enables us to get a near factory finish on the surfaces that are seen the most. It’s better to apply a few light coats than a single heavy one. The heavier it’s put on, the messier it will look.

We had drywall repair and painting done by Image Painting and are very pleased with their work! An added bonus: we didn't need to prepare for their arrival by moving anything for them -- they did a great job moving and covering everything that needed moving and covering. Highly recommend them!

I engaged Image Painting to close some ceiling gaps throughout the house and to repair some water damage from a roof leak in one room. That damage turned out to be more substantial than initially estimated, so it led to a change order and to removing half of the old plaster ceiling and replacing it with drywall. Their team worked very diligently and the end result is a seamless blending between the old and new structure. Every day they reported to work at 8 am, laid down protective coverings, and cleaned up at the end of their work day. The project manager was checking in often on the progress of the project. I would recommend their services.

Image did a fantastic job with our primary bedroom, hallway, and half bath. They answered all of our questions, communicated well, and just did a great pain job in general. They even fixed our bedroom door to help it close better. They also removed old painted-over wallpaper. I would use them again!

Great communication! Employees were professional and kept me informed. The painter did a great job and cleaned up afterwards. The job was completed a little earlier than expected.
