How do you paint particle board cabinets without sanding?

• <div><p>If you prefer not to sand your particle board cabinets prior to painting, you can use mineral spirits and a rough sponge to add some grit to your <a href="https://www.angi.com/articles/what-is-mdf.htm">medium-density fiberboard cabinets</a> so that the paint will still stick. Keep in mind that using 120-grit sandpaper is still the preferred method for preparing your particle board cabinets for a new coat of paint.</p></div>

Q: Can I paint cabinets myself, or should I hire a professional?

• <div><p>DIY is possible with proper preparation and equipment, but a professional painter ensures smoother finishes, especially for intricate cabinetry.</p></div>

Q: What costs are associated with cabinet painting?

• <div><p>Costs depend on the paint quality, cabinet size, prep work, and labor. Estimates typically range from $800 to $3,000.</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: Do you need to remove the stain before refinishing?

• <div><p>Removing the original paint or stain before refinishing is a good idea, as it ensures the new finish bonds strongly to the wood. If you skip the stripping or sanding step, the new finish may peel or flake away from the railing easily. Using a wood stripper will completely remove the old stain or paint while sanding will help to prime the surface.</p></div>

Jay Nobles and an associate refinished a bathtub and a shower for me on 05 Aug 19. Most of the work was completed the first day with virtually no impact on other parts of the house. Jay and his partner returned the following day to complete the job (the finish had to dry overnight). I found a...

He did not finish the job and my stove is sitting about 4 inches from the wall. The microwave above has a huge gap and it isn't even flush with the cabinet. He hooked up an extension cord ( mine by the way) to deliver power for the clock, etc the oven needed. These men were jokes and had no idea...
