Give Your Cabinets a Beautiful Finish
Are you planning to refinish your cabinets but haven’t decided on the process? Well, there are many ways to refinish cabinets but not all of them are ideal. If you are a DIY enthusiast, here are mistakes that you are likely to make:
Not sanding the cabinets thoroughly
Before you paint your cabinets, make sure to sand them down. If you do not do this, the painted cabinets you create will have lumps on them caused by the sawdust that was not removed. Make sure you sand down every bump and corner to ensure that your cabinets look and feel smooth.
Applying too much paint
The key to a successful cabinet refinishing project is not to apply too much paint. If you do that, you will have runny spots that you can’t control and they will take away from your overall look. You will also still be able to see the structure of your cabinet when it is too thick and doesn’t match the rest of your walls.
Not waiting the right amount of time
You need to wait the right amount of time to refinish your cabinets. Usually, a person won’t wait long enough. Usually, a person will refinish their cabinets too soon. This means that the paint will start to dry and you won’t be able to apply multiple coats on your cabinets. Make sure you wait enough time for the paint to cure before you move on to the next step.
These are just a handful of the mistakes you might make if you are careless.
