Painting Kitchen Cabinets in Fairfax
Let’s face it. Painting kitchen cabinets can be daunting if you have never done it before. I remember the first time I painted a customer’s kitchen cabinets in 1992; I was nervous and didn’t do a perfect job. However, we have learned something about painting kitchen cabinets and have even reviewed the nine popular cabinet-grade paints. I’m proud to say it is one of the internet’s most watched cabinet paint videos!
And if you want to paint your kitchen cabinets, I have a video on how to do just that without using a sprayer.
We typically spray our cabinets to get the best finish, but brushing them is the second best option if you have never sprayed before.
5 Year Warranty On Painting Kitchen Cabinets
The confidence in our products and process has allowed us to give 5-year warranties on kitchen cabinets against chipping and peeling.
The Klappenberger & Son Cabinet Warranty covers all labor and materials necessary to repair damaged areas to cabinets due to improper paint application or adhesion.
You can be confident that if you choose Klappenberger & Son to paint your kitchen cabinets, you are covered under our 5-year warranty.
Why Is Painting Kitchen Cabinets So Hard?
One issue is achieving the desired outcome. The quality of the finish should look like a piece of furniture, smooth to the touch, and durable.
The kitchen cabinets arrived at your house with a factory finish. Consequently, it just won’t look the same if you see brush marks or roller marks.
The kitchen cabinets came from the factory with a clear coat of lacquer for protection. Any latex or oil primer will bond initially but fail over time. The best choice is to use a shellac-based primer.
In short, there is more to having beautifully painted kitchen cabinets than just priming and using premium-grade paint.

What Makes Painting Kitchen Cabinets in Fairfax Difficult?
Two Factors:
First, most cabinets come out of the factory with a lacquer finish. While many primers stick to lacquer for a while, once the oil from our hands penetrates the paint and reaches the lacquer finish, the paint scratches off easily.
Secondly, the cabinets should be sprayed to achieve a true factory finish. Then choose a premium grade cabinet grades paint like C2, Ben Moore Advance, or PPG Ultralast and add a latex conditioner.
With over 30 years of painting kitchen cabinets in Fairfax and beyond, we learned what works and what doesn’t. We are so sure of the durability of our painted kitchen cabinets that we offer a 5-year warranty.
FYI – This is not the best time to try if you do not own a sprayer and have never operated one.
