Q: Do I need to sand cabinets before staining?

• <div><p>Yes, sanding cabinets before you stain them helps the new stain better adhere to the surface. If you&rsquo;re adding a darker stain to previously stained wood, you only have to sand them lightly enough to remove any finish and rough up the wood to improve adhesion. On the other hand, if you&rsquo;re trying to stain wood that is a darker color or that has paint on it, you need to sand down to the original wood, or the color will show through the new stain.</p></div>

Q: Can pros match repairs to existing cabinet finishes?

• <div><p>Yes, professionals can match repairs to existing cabinet finishes by employing color matching techniques and using high-quality materials. They ensure seamless integration with the current aesthetic, maintaining the appearance and value of the cabinets.</p></div>
