Are you planning to paint your kitchen cabinets? There is a lot of prep work that should be done before you begin painting. From sanding to removing hardware, cabinet painting in Duxbury, MA, may not be as easy as you think. One crucial decision is choosing between a roller, sprayer, or brush.
Each tool is best suited for specific parts of the job. Working with a professional wood refinishing company, like N-Hance Southshore, is the best way to get the dream kitchen you want. But, if you are looking to DIY your cabinet painting, here’s what you need to know to ensure your cabinet makeover is a success.
When Should I Paint With A Brush?
Many cabinet painting DIY-ers make the mistake of painting kitchen cabinets exclusively with a brush, which is time-consuming and often leaves drip marks and brush strokes.
Instead, use a brush for corners and crevices and for touch-ups once the cabinets are mostly painted. A brush is also suitable for the interior surfaces of your cabinets to ensure full coverage.
Before you paint your first stroke, check out the current N-Hance color trends. Our color trends can help you be confident that you will love your chosen color.
For the bulk of the work, opt for a roller or sprayer.
When Should I Paint With A Roller?
Rollers are ideal for covering large surfaces quickly, but they struggle with finer details. That’s why rollers are often paired with paintbrushes when painting kitchen cabinets.
Use a roller to paint the front and back of each cabinet surface, then switch to a brush to reach the nooks and crannies of doors, drawer fronts, and cabinet interiors. While rollers provide a relatively even finish, they can leave a slight texture.
For best results, work quickly and avoid going over a spot once it starts to dry, as this can create an uneven texture.
N-Hance Southshore’s professional cabinet painters provide custom finishes. If you want to be sure your kitchen cabinets are flawlessly painted, invest in professional painting services.
When Should I Paint With A Sprayer?
Most professional cabinet painters prefer sprayers because they are faster and yield the best results—if you know how to use one.
However, don’t make your kitchen cabinets the first project where you try using a sprayer. Inexperience can lead to common mistakes like over-spraying and under-spraying, resulting in a messy, uneven finish.
Sprayers also require extensive prep work. Before spraying, protect your space by covering appliances and countertops to prevent splatter.
While you should prep your kitchen when using rollers or brushes, it’s absolutely essential with a sprayer. With some practice and thorough preparation, using a sprayer is the best option for achieving a professional finish on your cabinets.
