Cabinet Painting Master Bathroom

Cabinet Painting in Master Bathroom. See the progress of my mini makeover and some of the tips that I use when stripping paint off of cabinets.

Good news, the master bath walls, and trim are finished….now it’s time to focus on the cabinets. Click here to get caught up on my plan for my mini makeover and some of my before and progress shots.

Cabinet Painting Master Bathroom

Of all the DIY projects that I have done around here, stripping and prepping cabinets for painting is not on the top of the list of favorites. Not that it’s a tough project to tackle, it’s just time-consuming and suffice to say I want this project done! Because I want the cabinets to look amazing and last as long as possible, I’ve decided I  am doing it right this time and start off with a clean slate to paint on. The previous paint job was done with the intention of it being very temporary until we did a full reno in the bathroom, but that didn’t quite happen.

The easiest way to remove layers of paint

I am using this product and this method to get the majority of a couple of layers of paint off the cabinets.  I used it on this project and it was a godsend.  Since I am filling the holes from the existing hardware ( the new cabinet handles are bigger) I will use wood putty before sanding the entire cabinet down. I’ll use my orbital sander ( 120 ) and give the cabinets a quick once over. A good clean off and then I will be ready for paint. I am using Agreeable Gray in a Satin Finish on the cabinets. The same color is on the walls but at 25% so there would be a slight contrast but the same color.

When the cabinets are done I will be installing new pulls and knobs. I got these knobs and these pulls in a brass finish.  They will be a good complement to the new brass mirrors and lights that I added.

I wish I had more to share but taking it one cabinet at a time.

Enjoy the long weekend! You know what I’ll be doing.
