hi
im currently buying a new house so need advice is it possible to paint kitchen cabinets. its currently brown and i love the cream colour but dont have money at the moment to change.
Hi,
We have a kitchen that's at least 15 years old. We were going to buy a new one but then decided to paint it to see if it would make us not want to buy a new one...
We had brown cabinets top and bottom with a dark green tile between the top and bottom cabinets and the top cabinets and ceiling.
Before:
After:
The paints we used:
Ronseal Natural Stone Tile Paint.
Difficult Surface primer as undercoat on cabinets.
Cream Silk on top cabinets.
We decided on a red for the bottom and lucky enough as we were going through B&Q, they were having a clearance of some old paints. So we bought the tin of red (firecracker) for €1.00 and it turned out to be just the shade of red we wanted.
The most expensive part was new knobs for all the doors, which cost about €60.
In total the facelift cost about €120.
Ha, I have the exact same doors as iandublin2! mine were covered with some fake oak laminate that I pulled off, underneath mdf doors. So on a white primer and over it some magnolia type cream colour. Trick is to put very a very thin coat on each time, so you need a good few coats, but the outcome looks just the part!
