Cabinet Finish and Paint

Cabinet finish and paint are essential components of a long-lasting cabinet. If the finish is weak, the cabinets will show wear more quickly and potentially begin to rot if they are exposed to unsuitable conditions such as moisture. The same goes for paint. Paint should stand up to your everyday tasks and should not come off of your cabinets easily unless this is the look you are going for. Distressed cabinets feature streaked or spotty paint and sometimes finish intentionally. Some cabinets feature natural wood grain, which means that you will not want them to be painted, but a high-quality finish is even more important. If you are looking to learn more about the ways that cabinets are painted and finished, read our featured articles. We go into detail about the most popular paints, primers, and finishes used within the industry and other things you may want to know about them before making a decision.
