Our Cabinet Painting Process

Step 1: In-Home Consultation & Evaluation

Every successful cabinet painting project begins with a personal, on-site consultation. We assess your cabinetry’s condition, discuss design goals, and recommend the best colors, finishes, and techniques.

We walk you through our process, share trends and finish options, and provide a detailed quote based on size, material, and complexity—so you feel confident and informed from day one.

Step 2: Surface Preparation & Protection

We protect floors, counters, and appliances, then remove doors, drawers, and hardware—labeling each piece for precise reassembly. All surfaces are cleaned to remove grease and residue, lightly sanded for adhesion, and minor damage is repaired.

Step 3: Priming for Durability

We apply a high-quality bonding primer formulated for cabinetry to ensure long-term adhesion and chip resistance, creating a smooth base for a flawless finish. For older woods or tannin-rich species, we use stain-blocking primers to prevent bleed-through.

Step 4: Cabinet Painting & Finish Application

After primer cures, we apply multiple thin coats of premium cabinet paint for a factory-smooth, durable finish resistant to moisture and daily wear. Choose matte, satin, semi-gloss, or high-gloss. Sprayed applications are standard; brush/roll available on request.

Step 5: Curing & Reassembly

We allow proper dry and cure time for maximum durability, then reinstall doors, drawers, and hardware (including new hardware if upgrading) with precise alignment. A detailed quality check ensures every surface meets our standards.

Step 6: Final Walkthrough & Satisfaction Guarantee

We conduct a final walkthrough, review care and maintenance tips, and address any touch-ups immediately. Rangel Painting Inc. stands behind every project with a satisfaction guarantee—built on honesty, reliability, and craftsmanship.
