Paint · 01Before you ask
Before you ask
The cabinet material and finish now, how many doors, and spray or brush.
- Attach your Sheet so people see your sizes and the math.
- Your town is enough. Never your address; check photos for house numbers and plates.
- Is it safe? A safety question here goes to pros verified in painting, unless you pick another trade. Only they can call it safe or unsafe.

Paint kitchen cabinets
20 doors, 8 drawers: 209 sq ft to paint, 1 gallon + 1 quart of cabinet enamel, 2 coats and 1 gallon of bonding primer.
What people get wrong:
- Skipping degreaser. Paint over kitchen grease peels in sheets.
- No primer over stain. Enamel straight over stained or varnished wood peels and lets tannins bleed through.
- Thick coats. Thick coats sag, stay soft and stick.
