Thanks so much for mentioning about the primer repelling at first. It's the one thing I've been curious about but haven't seen mentioned. Delighted that you confirmed I can put water based over it too. Great video!

[@JohnDoe-bk3db]

The article you wrote on how to paint Ikea furniture was so helpful. I recommend everyone to check it out.

[@occamsrazor6613]

Make sure you have good ventilation and a mask when using BIN shellac primer. Also ammonia mixed with warm water will clean your brushes and it's 1/8 the price of mineral spirits.

[@PoshPennies]

Thanks !

Ammonia & warm water, so basically just cat pee?

If you are in business the price is important. Please don’t be influenced by rude people - so done with these self centered attitudes. Thank you for sharing; it’s very informative.

[@vaderladyl]

Laminate can also be made out of paper layers pressed together and that definitely needs to be very well sealed with the primer so no moisture can penetrate it so it doesn't swell or peel off.

[@guyh.4553]

Key item: if you get your paint & have the paint mixer shake it. If the paint has sat, always use paint stir sticks or a drill powered paint mixer. Need to get the heavier parts mixed in with the other part. Did not know Zinser had a shellac based primer. Game changer, thanks for sharing!😊😊😊

[@paigebehan3364]

Short, simple, and to the point!! Thanks! I am so excited that I don’t have to sand. I have a kitchen and two bathroom cabinets. I imagine if you paint the cabinets in the kitchen the bathrooms should match too yes? Thanks so much for the help!!!

Great tutorial. I never knew we could paint on laminate furniture. It'll be great to see a follow up review to find out if the paint is still good.

[@holliejustice8353]

Thank you sooooo much for doing this vid!! I've been trying to upcycle different bits of furniture for ages and it's always been a slog getting the piece sanded etc...this stuff is aaahhmmaazing!! I'll never use anything else now so thank you again,x 😊

[@Raistlin7il7nero]

Sanding is always recommend especial on laminate. By doing that you create a “profile” for the paint to stick on. That will most probably avoid the need for a second layer of primer. Thx for the video. I think the bottom line is to get your proposed primer which is pricy but seems to be the best solution.

[@vaderladyl]

And probably avoid the "not sticking at first rolling" situation too.

[@rockshot100]

@@vaderladyl Yes, even a very fast light sanding with extremely course sandpaper, does make a world of difference. This gives you the "TOOTH' for the primer and everything else to bond well. If this is a pantry shelf, or something like that, then a water based topcoat really does help. Very much worth the time and money.

[@ASuwan22]

[@ThePhoenixx]

Thank you for mentioning that the primer appears to repel in the first coat!! No one mentions that 😭 I thought it wasn't working and I gave up. I'll make another attempt on my bookshelf now 💕

[@reedsimpson2353]

Due to not sanding I’d assume

[@theshortlong]

I came here to say the same thing! I've not seen that mentioned anywhere!

[@vaderladyl]

When that happens, you can always give it several more coats after one another, after you let each one dry in between coats.

[@MrsKronologick]

I struggle with adhd - thank you so much for the simple and the straight to the point explanation!!!

[@ericconnor8419]

If the paint is repelled you should spread it, wait ten minutes and then try again, the paint will become slightly thicker and more 'paste' like and will smear better (You can just keep rolling away but this gives you time for a cup of tea) When using a roller don't make the mistake I did - It turns out rollers have different textures. I used the same big one for the walls and it left everything a bit bobbbly, try and find a smoothish roller if possible. I had to go over everything with a big brush to make it actually flat.

[@ForeverSongMinistries]

Awesome video! I just bought a used motorized desk for my home office and have been struggling with how to change it to fit my style. I was going to delaminate it, but your video was brief and helpful. I just mentioned to my wife that we can repaint all of our Ikea bedroom furniture instead of buying new. She still wants the new stuff though, haha! But at least I'll get the desk that I really wanted.

[@kristinaingersoll6640]

Have you redone the desk yet? Would love to know how it worked out! We have a motorized desk as well that we are looking to give a new "look" to!

[@jennifermarie1163]

Thank you for showing the details of how the primer looks when applied to laminate! I was worried of it not being smooth/the same result as if it was applied to wood. Just what I needed!

[@johnnybravado1030]

Oil base primer is the best. 30yrs painter. Always light sand. Before and between coats. 3m sand pads. Paint doesn’t need sealer. The paint is the sealer. If it repels, it’s not sticking. It dried Over it and didn’t grab the finish.

[@AusyJo]

What grit sand paper?

This is exciting because I have a lot of ikea bookcases that need a solution. Thank you!

Amazing video, I read through you article and you did an amazing job writing that as well, thanks for all the info

[@csimet]

I've always used Zinsser BIN (red can, shellac, alcohol based) and it is the best, but even it will have issues with glossy surfaces at times. I've always scuff sanded first and never had issues with adhesion. Just a very light sand to break the sheen and takes just a few more seconds in prep. It also tends to help reduce "puddling" that may form with primers over glossy surfaces (as seen at 3:05)... that minor texture that develops.

[@REFRESHH]

It's important that BEFORE priming, you 'ungrease' your surface! That way the primer really sticks on the surface.

[@aracalbuto]

Does the final paint eventually wrap off if you have your arms on the desk for several hours a day?

[@REFRESHH]

@@aracalbuto If you only use the paint as final layer, then the chances are that it'll come off eventually. Try using 2-3 layers of transparent varnish as the finishing layers to have the surface scratch resistant.

[@nm9412]

Thank you for showing Bin primer I have 4 pieces of furniture that requires painting and this tutorial really helps me to get motivated first lol.

[@marleangreene6117]

Yes this works but if you want a smooth coat i lightly sand with 300 grit paper between primer coats just to smooth out any bumps, you can also do this between paint coats for a smooth finish

[@PoshPennies]

Absolutely, great tip to share!

@@alyssalaggui7546 oh!! Sorry about that! Yes I have used it over laminate and faux wood paneling..you name it..i have painted over it.

Thankyou awesome i used water based, and did 1 coat of paint, luckily i noticed the paint coming off easily before applying more coats, i have this, so now to look for video on how to fix doing it wrong the first time?

[@She_Tried_It]

For such a small project, a quick once over with a manual piece of sandpaper would save all this rolling... maybe clean it with vinegar too. What will the uneven look in the primer do for your final coat? It looks lumpy...

With respect, it’s about the same amount of time as sanding before painting then varnishing after painting. Y’re right. To each their own🙂. Cheers.

[@bent7001]

Thanks for the video! I took a lot away from this, I will add however, throwing in another prep step such as using a cleaning agent like krud Kutter helps immensely from the get go and BIN primer will adhere immedietly. I went above and beyond myself with using krud Kutter, followed by a light surface sand, then using the bin primer. adding the extra 5 minutes per cabinet door made a world of difference!
