How to PAINT Your Kitchen Cabinets the EASY Way

[@williamprezioso2742]

Just a little advice from an old old painter,try using a velour roller sleeve on you next project you will see much less roller texture that looks almost as if it was sprayed they are available at Sherwin Williams and Ben Moore.

[@WTHomestead]

Agree! Picked up a velour roller from Lowe’s on a whim yesterday for some interior doors I’m painting and it’s sooo much better than the foam roller I had been using-finish is awesome

[@lisas2538]

Thank you so much for the info!

[@jillpustalka-my8im]

Wouldn't using a spray painter on doors be faster?

[@lawandaherminstyne9646]

Love this advice! Thank you!

[@effpdx]

I'd never heard of roller sleeves until now, but wish I had known about them recently when I painted some cabinets.

[@brodiestephens419]

I've watched a number of different videos on how to paint kitchen cabinets, and after watching YOUR video.... I've subsequently deleted all the others from the kitchen reno playlist I made!! This video is quite literally the only one I need. As many others have mentioned, your ability to thoroughly explain and truly 'teach' EVERY STEP of the process is what makes your video so much better than any others I've found. Thank you so much for your attention to detail, and importantly, for your empathy. The best educators have exceptional empathy, and that's what stands out in your videos. You're able to put yourself in the position of someone less knowledgeable/experienced than you.... and explain things in the way we (viewers) need to hear it. Other KZbinrs make renovation videos.... yours are renovation TUTORIALS!! Thanks from all the way over here in Australia, ya bloody champion! 🏆

[@BriteImpressions1]

I just found your KZbin channel recently. I have to say, I really enjoy this style of video. Particularly that you are showing all the steps in the project. The TV shows about renovations really gloss over the actual steps and you don't really learn how to do something yourself. Excellent work and I appreciate your efforts!

A little advice, the hinges should also be labeled to match the door, to prevent having to readjust them.

[@cheryllawrence2652]

I just recently painted our cabinets with the bright white on the upper and the pebble brown on the lower. I absolutely Love the look and the finish. This Beyond Paint is great and it didn’t take a lot of paint to do it. We have a small kitchen so it only took me a couple of days to do the actual painting. My husband removed the bottom doors but I painted the uppers in place because the cabinets were already white. We replaced the pulls with black ones from Home Depot and it looks amazing!! I have been watching your videos so I finally got the courage to go for it!!🤗🤭👍🏽👏🏽👏🏽

[@Zee_M1681]

What a difference only paint makes!! Shows people that you don’t have to be super rich to have a beautiful house, just make sure go minimalist too. Beautiful results

[@walidelias9131]

Ppppp

[@McClungMichaell]

Looks good . Sorry to be the spoiler alert but as a pro painter here the old oak cabinets need scruff up sanding and priming prior to painting, especially shiny varnish or shellac. Primer is designed to bond to the wood and paint is designed to bond to the primer. The "no prep" paint/primer in modern paints can peel if not prepped first. Primer in paint is not sufficient for a good bond. Hope they did not peel later on.😉

[@kjsacramento]

Thank you ... I wondered about that. I moved into a house where pro painters apparently didn't learn that basic, spray painted over an oil-based paint without proper preparation, and left me with a painting nightmare! It's peeling and bubbling everywhere, and it can't be easily fixed with touchups because it makes lines

[@MrsMTMomma]

So glad someone recommended just what you said. I also wondered why she doesn’t used the little pyramid shaped “lifters” so she could put the doors down and not hold them which, I think would be very tiring and, over time, could be a physical problem for her wrists.

[@cher93]

Wood doesn't need sanding and priming if chaulk paint is used. All the chaulk painted antique look of modern furniture is simply chaulk painted and scuffed up to look old and 2 coats of stained wax or clear wax. Try it sometimes you'll be amazed at how the chaulk paint sticks to wood, etc surfaces without peeling! People are even chaulk painting kitchen cabinets these days! Out with the old ways, in with the new technology with much less labor!

[@barbarapagels4675]

​@cher93 except yrs later those chalk painted kitchen cabinets are in horrible shape! Have you seen them 10+ yrs later after several children? Eeeeek! I so, sooo wish the "new ways" worked up to par because, of course I want the Easy Way!!! You MUST sand & prime even a tiny bit and yes even with the new self-leveling paints IF you want the best results!!!❤😊❤

[@tamiz8895]

I thought about that also, esp for a kitchen or a bathroom, humidity, grease, cleaning all factor in.

[@Vk-mm4lf]

I have painted many kitchen cabinets. Sadly, many homeowners don't want to use designer paints. But if they would they wouldn't have to repaint so often. I am saving this video for just that reason. Great job. 4 days is not a long time. Geez, I have spent four days just getting the grease off some cabinets. You guys are awesome.

[@debbiesotelo9882]

Lauren would this work the same way on motor home cabinets without peeling, since they have different types of material?

[@txnana5459]

Your detailed video with simple but practical advice is awesome. I’ve been wanting to update my golden oak kitchen forever but not willing to pay $$$$ for replacing it. As two inexperienced older homeowners, I believe we can do this ourselves! Wish us luck!

Hi Lauren, I know it’s a year later after you have done this video. Beautiful work you do! I have watched other videos you have done, and you have used chalk paint. Was there a reason why you decided to use this paint on the cabinets as opposed to chalk paint? I am getting ready to do a big flip of all my master bedroom furniture. I have decided to use chalk paint on that. I’m also doing my cabinets in the kitchen and the bathrooms. Which would you suggest? Thank you kindly, De 😊

[@caseyslove]

So much dedication to clean and sand the wood before the painting begins. Proper preparation is so important. I hope the bathroom cabinets look more navy in real life, because on screen they look like the purple people eater! Lol

We are both experienced but it has been awhile since we did this kind of thing, we are both 75 yrs old. We had a Walk In Tub installed, new tile on the floor so now we are going to paint the sink cabinet a black finish to save money instead of replacing it. Thank you again.

[@hollyschanz5185]

Great video! One thing that makes a huge difference in updating cabinets is simply removing the scroll cut design piece over the sink and cutting it either straight or into a simple arch. It’s the only thing that would have made this project complete IMO. But great job!

[@CH67guy1]

Yes, indeed, the wavy valance over the sink dates this kitchen. However, this design element can be easily modified if desired.

What a beautiful transformation, Lauren. You've taken an 80s (looks like it to me) kitchen and time traveled it to the 21st century. I love the imperfections - the tiny cracks in the timber, the timber grain showing. They reflect life. Life is filled with imperfections, we're imperfect. You've shown here that imperfect is perfect. These imperfections tell stories. Without them, they're boring and life is boring.

Lauren, thanks so much for doing this video! I also used Beyond Paint this summer to re-do my kitchen. Went from white to white again, but I added wood trim to create a shaker style effect. The paint is awesome and works very well. Landed on the brand after doing a ton of research and it was the easiest option with durable results. And I love the texture and subtle sheen of it. We're 3-4 months in and still looking good. Highly recommend.

Jackie of all trades Did you use sealer on your cabinets?

[@JackieofAllTrades]

@@kathyfranklin7776 I thought about using a sealer or some kind of top coat but all the stuff I read made it seem to be a “one and done” project, which is what I was looking for. You can see my application of the paint in my DIY Shaker style cabinets video. I will give it a year and review but so far I’ve spilled coffee and grease and random jam on it. Everything wipes clean. In fact last month my teen son cut his finger and so we had blood on the cabinets too! Bad for him but good to test how they hold! Sounds morbid, but I was excited to see I’d missed a spot a couple days later. The blood had dried on the white paint but wiped right off with a disposable cleaning wipe. So no sealer used but so far it appears to be no problem for this paint.

Nothing wrong with the procedure as long as you don't mind seeing the open grain of the oak. To transform your golden oak cabinets to a modern day totally smooth painted finish. You MUST fill the grain. I would suggest a couple products that are easy to use and when finished you will not see any graining. That's a professional look.

[@richardfitzsimmons4312]

What would u suggest to use to fill the grain of the wood

[@dmjh932]

@@richardfitzsimmons4312 I like a product named Aqua Coat. It comes in clear and white pigmented. When I painted my oak cabinets. I did not want to see any grain bleeding through. When finished I wanted a smooth, grain free look. This takes time but you will get great results. I had a furniture refinishing shop for years. Good results take steps and time. I would also only use a good paint. I used Sherwin Williams Emerald. I sprayed mine with an airless sprayer in my garage. However you can roll and brush. I would add Floetrol to the paint. I allows it to level out and if brushing. Prevents brush stokes. ONLY use a great quality PURDY NYLOX is a great choice. Good luck.

[@FurnitureFlippingTeacher]

So glad you gave it a try! And even more glad you love it!! 🤗

[@pfles1]

I know and appreciate the time and work this takes. I helped my parents paint all their kitchen cabinets last year. Great job- it looks terrific!

[@TJo-vb8tg]

Awesome job! The cabinetry all looks great! And that bathroom cabinet/new knobs! WOW! Love it.

[@heidisettles7328]

Such a wonderful teacher and a quality job! Super impressed with time management and set up tips. 2 questions - Have you used wood grain filler on oak for smoother finish? It would be time consuming, but maybe good idea? Also have you ever sprayed a kitchen or done a combination of rolled frames with sprayed doors?

[@teshasmith8689]

Why is it that you don't prime or sand the cabinets before you paint them? I just recently found your channel and have learned so much. Thank you 😊

[@pamelag7553]

Great job on the paint. Really like the colors. As long as the finish wipes/cleans well then it's perfect as it is. If she wants to do a wax or something that's optional but may require maintenance years down the road for upkeep. Excellent tutorial!👍

[@turogers13]

Wow, you did a wonderful update. You made it look easy. Thank you. You helped me to believe that yes, I can do this.

[@dianaalfonso9813]

Beautiful job! What would really make it the cabinets color pop, would be a slight darker color paint on the walls. 😊

[@armelleaymonin8907]

Impressive kitchen cabinets renovation, with your reassuring didactic approach. Bravo!

[@RebeccaVaughn757]

You gave me the confidence I needed to redoy own kitchen and it looks amazing. Beyond Paint for the win!

[@cathynuytten798]

I painted the cabinets in my two bathrooms. It was so much fun. I had to do sanding on my surfaces but most just a light sanding. They look great. I would love to do my kitchen cabinets but there are sooooo many. Every time I mention it my husband goes glassy eyed and so I drop the subject! I’m 70 years old and have not trouble getting down on the floor or up on a ladder so I could do it. I can’t however decide on a color if I did decide to paint them. I will ponder it for a few months and it will come to me what color they should be and maybe I will take a crack at it! I really like the paint you are using so I will keep the name of it for future reference in case I decide to do my kitchen. Great idea writing the number of the door in the hole where the hinges go. I would have never thought of that!

I’m redoing mine. Did the interiors last year. They were a mess! Ready to do the outsides this fall/ winter. Planning on taking my time, one section at a time. May take 2 months, but I’m up for it!

[@ColleenHershon]

I did mine by myself. Lots of cabinets. I sanded and did 2 coats of primer and 2 coats of paint. 24 hrs in between coats of paint. Removed & replaced all the hardware. Didn't kill myself, took my time. The project took me 5 weeks, but it looks amazing! You can do it! Good luck!

[@chrisscinta1973]

@@ColleenHershon that’s exactly what I plan to do!!

[@FurnitureFlippingTeacher]

I did the insides of my parent's cabinets when I did theirs! Definitely an even bigger job trying to get in all those crevices! kudos to you and good luck with the outers! take your time (:

[@marcianeves9035]

Amazing outcome again! 5 stars!

[@juliebeebe34]

GREAT job!! And I have an amazing help for you with the cabinet cleaning....Good Gone, but using it the proper way, which almost no one knows how to do :-/ •Generously spray on the Goo Gone onto a 2 ft area at a time. • With your bare or rubber gloved hand, rub the productall over the entire area for about 15 to 20 seconds. • Allow the cleaner to sit & work for 2 to 5 minutes . Warning: Sitting for more time than that, allows the Goo Gone to evaporate--not good, and wiping it off before than 2 minutes, is worthless! The product will not have even worked yet! But, once it's wiped off properly...you'll love the results! The grease and grime comes right up! • once the grease, grime and Goo Gone is all removed, clean off all residues with your favorite kitchen cleaner. All ready for paint ♡

I just saw this video. You’re very detailed in explaining the process. I am going to do my daughter’s oak cabinets and will try the “ Beyond Paint” thanks !

[@karenbarrett5084]

I was going to Paint my cabinets with the Beyond Paint but quickly changed my mind when I found out how much it was!!

[@TanManFixes]

OK just started this project. First tip: do NOT use foam rollers. you want the regular woven rollers. use a small 4" roller. Get 6 or 8 of them. The first coat is a little rough. don't worry, let it dry for 2 hours. Once you get the second coat on, it looks GREAT. The paint smoothes out. Use the "dab" motion with a brush for small lines you can't fill in with the roller. 3 coats might be needed. so far I am pretty impressed.

[@debfiel6585]

I didn't think I was going to like the blue bathroom but it looks amazing. Great job!

[@patribtr]

great job! looks nice . you are very good and efficient with your time. Thanks for sharing.

[@annieacevedocruz]

Thank you Lauren. I love your videos and you inspired me to transform my kitchen cabinets. I did the bright white and pewter. They look beautiful!

[@Vivianwoods63]

Hi Is the paint holding up? I am considering doing my cabinets. Some people said their paint started chipping. Appreciate your response.

[@marisolmantei9280]

Thank you for the information. What I'm most afraid of is the paint peeling, can you vouch for the longevity of the paint used?

[@cherylbarkman4568]

WOW!!! Amazing job Lauren! I really appreciate how you always explain every step and detail to get the very best results. Thanks for giving me the courage to paint my own kitchen cabinets 😊 My husband and I just love watching all your videos. You and Neiman do such a great job!

[@robertawills7219]

Love the linen colour. Amazing job? Very professional, especially considering how quickly you did it.
