Why We Never Spray Kitchen Cabinets On-Site
Advantages of Off-Site Spray Painting
Controlled Environment
Dust-Free Setting: Doors and drawers are sprayed in a dedicated, dust-free painting shop, ensuring a smooth and professional finish.
Consistency
Multiple coats can be applied evenly, resulting in a consistent, high-quality appearance.
Drying and Curing
Optimal Conditions: Freshly painted pieces are placed on drying racks in a vented environment, allowing for proper drying and curing to achieve a satin-smooth finish.
Enhanced Durability
Off-site spray painting ensures that each coat is applied uniformly, creating a durable finish that is resistant to wear and tear.
Time Efficiency
Spraying doors and drawers off-site allows for multiple pieces to be painted simultaneously, speeding up the overall project timeline.
Healthier for Homeowners
By performing spray painting off-site, it minimizes exposure to fumes and chemicals in the home, ensuring a healthier environment for homeowners and their families.
Advantages of On-Site Cabinet Painting
Precision
Detail-Oriented: Hand-painting the exterior sections (face frames, exposed cupboards, shelving, crowns, valances, gable ends, kick plates) ensures meticulous attention to detail.
Seamless Integration
Hand-painting allows for seamless integration with the fixed parts of the kitchen, preventing issues like over-spray and uneven build-up.
Durability
Proper Preparation: Ensuring all surfaces are properly cleaned, sanded, sealed, and undercoated in place to prevent issues like old stain exposure and gaps around walls and ceilings.
Flexibility
Using high-end caulk and acrylic paints that expand and contract with the wood to prevent cracking over time.
Overall Benefits
No Mess
Minimal disruption to the homeowner, as cupboards don't need to be emptied and the process avoids excessive taping and masking.
High-Quality Results
Combining the precision of hand-painting with the smooth finish of off-site spraying ensures cabinets look brand new and are durable.
Customer Satisfaction
The attention to detail and commitment to quality guarantee that clients will be thrilled with the transformation of their cabinets.
