How to easily remove grease build-up from your cabinets
Since you plan on repainting the cabinets anyway, try using liquid TSP to clean them. It will also provide roughing for the base coat to adhere. You may need to apply several times, wipe off and apply again if there is a heavy build up of grease/dust.
FYI I would opt a more natural solution. TSP is very toxic.
Try cleaning them
And then, I would pick your favorite chalkpaint color and go to town on them! This way, you don't need to sand or prime, just clean![](https://cdn-fastly.hometalk.com/resources/design/emojis/263a.png)
I bought restore a finish at hardware store check it out
There is a non-phosphate TSP solution for cleaning. A tsp/hot water solution will work well (wear gloves just in case you have sensitive hands). Then a clean rinse, allow to dry, lightly sand with 600 grit, wipe off dust, prime & paint! Enjoy your new cabinets!
