Is it better to strip or sand kitchen cabinets?

• <div><p>When deciding between stripping or sanding kitchen cabinets, the short answer is it depends on the condition of your cabinets and your end goal for them. If the cabinets are in fairly good condition and don’t have several layers of paint on them, sanding is a good option. On the other hand, older cabinets with more blemishes or marks will benefit from paint stripping, since it will give any future finishes a clean slate. </p></div>

Q: Can you paint over laminate cabinets without sanding?

• <div><p>A combination deglosser and cleaner can help minimize the amount of sanding necessary when painting laminate cabinets and other surfaces. Deglosser is excellent for use on heavily detailed surfaces where sandpaper can't reach evenly or at all. While some DIYers prefer to use only deglosser when painting cabinets, using sandpaper when possible saves money, and some deglossers may not work as well on laminate surfaces.</p></div>

Q: Will paint peel off laminate cabinets?

• <div><p>Preparation is the most crucial and, really, the only secret to a lasting paint job on laminate cabinets. Paint will peel off laminate surfaces that aren't clean and grease-free. Paint will also peel off if there isn't proper etching on the cabinet surfaces. Taking time to deep clean and lightly but thoroughly sand before priming and painting will greatly increase your chances of success and help keep the paint from peeling. </p></div>

Q: Can I use vinegar to clean cabinets before sanding?

• <div><p>You should not clean cabinets with vinegar. While many homeowners think it is a natural cleaner, vinegar is a mild acid, not a degreaser. Since it does not cut through greasy grime, it won't effectively remove it from kitchen cabinets. For best results, use a degreasing cleaner designed for prep work, then rinse and dry thoroughly before sanding.</p></div>

R.V. Not only paint the interior of our home. They also replaced the flooring of the whole house. Change the cabinets of the kitchen.. turn down the wall to make an island. I also upgraded the porch and extended it and make it larger.. I highly recommend them.

After setting the appointment they arrived 2 hours late. After inspecting the house I found dusty cabinets, drawers and lamps that were not cleaned. I am not happy with this service at all after paying $200.00 and the job was very simple cleaning.
