Painting the Kitchen Cupboard Feet can be an effective way to update the appearance of your home without replacing the cabinets. One of the biggest challenges of painted laminates is that the smooth plastic surface does not adhere well to paint. Properly sanding and using a strong adhesive primer specially designed for laminate surfaces can help you achieve long-lasting and professional results. Because the paint can take up to a week to fully cure, plan accordingly and remove the items you need from the cabinet during this period.
1
Open any windows during work to ventilate the area. Wear a gas mask and chemical resistant gloves.
2
Dampen a cloth with xylene and wipe the surface of the laminated cabinet thoroughly to remove any dirt or grease. Or, you can use trisodium phosphate mixed with water in the bucket according to the instructions label, rinse thoroughly and dry.
3
Sand the laminate cabinet surface with 150 grit sandpaper to remove gloss and roughen the surface.
4
Wipe the cabinet again with xylene or trisodium phosphate solution. Rinse the cleaning fluid and dry the cabinet thoroughly.
5
Protect areas of the kitchen that you do not want to paint. Glue the plastic with painter's tape.
6
Spray the cabinet with a thorough, uniform primer designed to be applied to the surface of the laminate. Use slightly longer overlapping strokes to spray from a distance of six inches to completely cover the cabinet. Let the primer dry and cure for a few days according to the instructions on the label.
7
Lightly sand the primer with 220 grit sandpaper to smooth out any bumps or blemishes and improve paint adhesion.
8
Stir the oily paint with a stir bar and pour it into the paint tray. Dip the roller or paint pad into the tray and remove the excess. Paint the laminated cabinets smoothly and evenly so that each stroke slightly overlaps. If necessary, let the paint dry and apply another coat. Before using the cabinet, let the paint dry and cure according to the instructions label
