Beyond Paint All-in-One Refinishing Paint, No Sanding, Matte Finish for Cabinets, Countertops, Furniture and Doors, 1 Quart, Bright White

Product Information

According to Woolsey, almost any color, shade, or tone can work for kitchen cabinets—though the right choice depends on the rest of your kitchen and overall home design. "White palettes and stained woods are timeless crowd-pleasers, while deep greens are on-trend and work with almost any design aesthetic," she says. "For older homes, I love saturated hues from historic color palettes." I highly recommend this product. Yes, it costs more, but it also saves a lot of effort in not having to sand the entire area. I’m no longer able to do a lot of physical work, so this was well worth the cost to me.

offering 15 years experience working with well known brands worldwide on a variety of technologies, proof of concepts, and on new or existing products and services. The best paint brands for kitchen cabinets allow you to choose from multiple finishes ( sometimes called sheens). For instance, Valspar is available in a flat, eggshell, or semi-glossy finish. When it comes to kitchen cabinets, your best bet is satin or semi-glossy, as both are generally easy to clean. As noted, satin and semi-glossy finishes tend to be easier to clean than flat and matte paints. But many interior paints are also formulated specifically to be easy to clean, which is crucial for splatter- and fingerprint-prone kitchen cabinets. For instance, Sherwin-Williams and Glidden boast scrubbable formulas, and Benjamin Moore paint features a special stain-release technology. Sherwin-Williams has been operating for over 150 years, and it remains a trusted paint brand to this day. The brand makes various paint-primer combos ideal for kitchen cabinets, many of which only require one coat. DIYers and contractors alike rave about the buttery-smooth application that automatically levels out and dries into a perfectly even layer. No matter your skill level, the finish will look good from any angle, and you won't have to worry about roller marks or brush strokes. The formulas are also a breeze to scrub clean.Easy-to-use paint and primer in one: Self-leveling water-based acrylic formula leaves no roller marks for a slightly textured matte finish The Rust-Oleum Tub & Tile Refinishing Kit is a great option if you're looking to resurface ceramic or porcelain tile counters.

It does say it takes 7-30 days ti fully cure so try to be careful during that time, I plan on using this product again and will finish my other bathrooms and then my kitchen. My go-to for most kitchens is satin," says Woolsey. "As the name would imply, a satin finish has less sheen than the semi-gloss cabinets but is still durable enough to withstand the wear and tear of a much-used kitchen." I ended up getting a foam roller as well, found it works way better than the one that comes with it. Founded by the Moore brothers in the late 1800s, Benjamin Moore has been a go-to interior paint brand for over a century. If you want to skip the primer when painting your kitchen cabinets, this is the company to go with. Though most shades require two coats, the self-priming formulas cover imperfections and conceal any existing paint colors. Many of the brand's paint lines are also mildew-resistant and easy to clean—some even have a stain-release technology that repels spills and splatters.Before painting your kitchen cabinets, you’ll need to deconstruct them as much as possible. Remove the doors and drawers, as well as hardware, then set up a sanding station outside. Using 120 to 180 grit sandpaper, lightly roughen the front surfaces and visible edges. You don’t need to sand off the old paint entirely; you just want to roughen the surface to give the new coat of paint a clean base to grip to. Remember to wear a dust mask and safety goggles.

Some countertop refinishing kits, especially certain paint formulas emit volatile organic compounds (VOCs) that have a strong smell and can be harmful to inhale—when they are heavily concentrated indoors. Look for kits that tout low or no VOCs, and always wear a mask when applying a substance that may contain chemicals. As an added step, make sure to open a window or two for proper ventilation in the process.

We’re a family run business in our 40 thyear and we’re partners with international supplier Eguchi Iwao High-quality coverage: One quart covers 10-12 cabinet fronts and facings with 2 coats, enough to makeover an average-size kitchen or twin bedroom set The application process for this kit is much more involved than the other products we've featured in this roundup, but Giani provides incredibly detailed instructions to guide users through the experience. Although daunting, we can appreciate the freedom that comes with creating your own "granite" sponge pattern across countertops. The high-shine finish is comparable to real granite, making this kit even more worth the effort. Keep in mind that the layers require 24 hours to dry to the touch (refrain from using your dishwasher during this time) and you can replace light appliances on your kitchen countertops after 3 days. The full cure time is 14 days, which is incredibly long, but ensures the formula completely dries and seals to withstand regular wear. Since this is a water-based formula, you can only use soap and water to clean it, and prolonged water exposure can result in the top coat dissolving. If this happens, allow the area to dry fully before touching it, and then reapply the top coat. I love how this turned out!!! With using white I expected to use more than 2 coats, so I ended up using 4 coats total and let each coat dry for 4 hours and it worked really good and looks amazing!! This photo shows a before and after. You really can’t tell that the tub surround was painted - it just looks brand new. There are no brush or roller marks. This is not a high-gloss finish. We may apply a sealant down the line, but it looks beautiful without one.

This formula is meant to be used on vinyl, metal, or wood, so you apply it to surfaces like laminate countertops, metal bar tops, or wooden workbenches. Keep in mind that you will need to prime wooden and metal surfaces with Rust-Oleum Painter's Touch Flat White Primer or Rust-Oleum Clean Metal Primer. This formula covers as much as 25 linear feet, which is slightly less than what other refinishing kits can cover. It is dry to the touch in just an hour but requires 3 days to fully cure. This curing time is also longer than other formulas, but we still think the payout on this formula is worth the longer wait, especially given its simple roll-on application method.

To better understand application methods, Phelps conducted extensive research on popular kit brands, necessary tools, dry time, and coverage possibilities.
