A kitchen renovation is one of the most significant improvements a home can get. It can be the most costly renovation, with many different components to consider.
Are you looking to save money? One way to do so when upgrading your kitchen is to keep the cabinets and paint them. It makes a kitchen look new and improved at a fraction of the cost. With many different kinds of paint, it can be tricky to know which to use. That’s why you should hire a professional cabinet refinishing company. Here are more types of cabinet paint:
Chalk paint
If you are looking for a matte or satin finish on your cabinets, chalk paint could be the way to go. One benefit of using chalk paint is that it doesn’t require lots of preparation. You won’t have to sand or prime your cabinets before using chalk paint unless the surface is smooth and shiny. This paint thrives on the look of imperfections and gives a rustic look to the cabinet. If you want a unique look with a bit of an edge, chalk paint is the way to go.
Enamel paint
Enamel paint is a durable and complete coverage kind of paint for your cabinets. It’s oil-based and made to withstand for years, resisting any damages it may face. You will, however, need a primer before applying this paint to help it last and adhere to the cabinets. Enamel paint makes cabinets easy to clean while continuing to hold their colour for years to come.
Alkyd paint
Alkyd paint is a combination of primer, as well as the paint itself. They are oil-based and provide complete coverage to conceal the old colour, and bring on the new. It can help keep stains to a minimum and is long-lasting. On top of that, alkyd paint keeps its durability, keeps moisture away, and resists wear and tear. If you are looking for paint to withstand a busy family and maintain its hold, this could be the paint for you.
