Why Cabinet Painting Goes Wrong When You Try to Do It Yourself
Cabinets are not walls. The surface is smooth, non-porous, and gets touched dozens of times a day. Paint that isn't applied correctly on cabinets peels at the edges, chips around the handles, and starts looking bad within months. Most failed cabinet paint jobs come down to two things — wrong prep and wrong products. Our cabinet painting process treats every door and frame the way a furniture finisher would, not the way a wall painter would.
Grease Soaks Into the Wood Before You Even Start
Kitchen cabinets collect years of cooking grease. If you don't degrease and sand properly before priming, the paint won't bond — it sits on top of the grease layer and peels off in sheets within weeks.
Brush Marks Show on Cabinets More Than Anywhere Else
Flat walls hide minor brush strokes. Smooth cabinet doors don't. Getting a clean, even finish on cabinet surfaces needs the right applicator, the right product viscosity, and the right technique — not a standard paint roller.
Cabinet Doors and Frames Need Different Approaches
The doors come off and get painted separately. The frames stay in place. Treating both the same way leads to drips on the frames and uneven finish on the doors. Each part of the job needs its own process.
Hinges, Hardware, and Handles Have to Be Removed First
Paint around hardware always looks rushed. Every hinge and handle gets removed before we start. Paint bleeds into hinge gaps and under handles when they're left on — and that's the first thing people notice when they open a cabinet.

What You Get When You Book Cabinet Painting With Adamson Painting
Cabinet painting with Adamson Painting is a full process — not just paint on wood. Every step from hardware removal to final reinstall is handled by us.
Hardware and Door Removal
Every cabinet door comes off. Every hinge, handle, and knob gets removed and labeled. Nothing gets painted around or over.
Full Degreasing of All Surfaces
Cabinet frames and doors get degreased with a professional cleaner before anything else. This is the step most DIY jobs skip — and why they fail.
Sanding for Proper Adhesion
All surfaces sanded by hand to give the primer something to grip. Smooth factory finishes won't hold new paint without proper sanding first.
Bonding Primer on Every Surface
We use a bonding primer built for slick surfaces. This is what keeps the paint from peeling at the edges and around corners after months of daily use.
Two Coats of Cabinet-Grade Paint
We use Sherwin-Williams, Benjamin Moore, and Behr cabinet and trim lines — products formulated for high-touch surfaces, not interior wall paint applied to wood.
Hardware Reinstall and Full Cleanup
Doors rehung, hardware reinstalled, kitchen left clean. We don't leave cabinet doors stacked in your hallway for you to figure out.

What Happens on Cabinet Painting Day — Every Step
Cabinet painting done right takes longer than most homeowners expect — because the prep takes longer. Here's exactly what we do from the moment we arrive.
Step 1
Inspect Every Door and Surface
We check every cabinet door and frame for damage, peeling old paint, and surface condition before we touch anything.
Step 2
Remove All Hardware and Doors
Every door labeled and removed. Every hinge, handle, and knob taken off and set aside. Nothing painted around or masked over.
Step 3
Degrease All Surfaces
Full degreasing treatment on every door and frame. Cooking grease soaks into wood and primer won't bond over it without this step.
Step 4
Sand Everything by Hand
All surfaces sanded to scuff the existing finish and give the primer a surface to grip. Smooth factory wood doesn't hold paint without this.
Step 5
Apply Bonding Primer
Bonding primer on every door and frame. This is what keeps the paint from chipping at edges and corners after months of daily use.
Step 6
First Coat of Cabinet-Grade Paint
Even first coat on all doors laid flat and all frames in place. Doors stay horizontal while drying to prevent drips and sag.
Step 7
Light Sand Between Coats
Light scuff sand after the first coat dries. This removes any dust nibs and gives the second coat a perfectly smooth surface to go onto.
Step 8
Second Coat, Rehang, and Reinstall
Final coat applied, doors rehung level, all hardware reinstalled. We walk the kitchen with you before we leave to make sure every door closes right and looks right.
