Cabinet Refinishing in Naperville, IL

If the boxes are solid and the layout works, refinishing gets you most of a new kitchen without the demo, the dust or the weeks without a sink. The catch is that cabinets are the hardest painting job in a house: they are covered in cooking grease, they get touched constantly, and every brush mark is at eye level under task lighting.

So the process is unforgiving by necessity. Doors and drawer fronts come off and get labeled. Everything is degreased — properly, twice — then scuff-sanded, primed with a bonding primer built for slick surfaces, and sprayed rather than brushed so the finish lays out flat. Doors are sprayed off-site or in a contained area, cured before they are rehung, and the boxes and face frames are sprayed in place with the kitchen masked off.
