How to paint kitchen cabinets without sanding
-
Lori Bryant on May 29, 2013There is a special kind of cleaner you can get at Lowes or home depot. Can't think of the name of it. Think it is something like SPE?? You wash your cabinents with it and dry them thoroughly. There is also a liquid sandpaper you can paint on and paint over. You should be able to find it at the same places above.Helpful Reply

Melissa on May 29, 2013Think she may be thinking of TSP. It is something you use to clean the grease, dirt, grime, off of the cabinets before painting. It leaves a rough finish that holds paint well.Helpful Reply

Jeffrey Whitmer on May 31, 2013No. It is probably finished with an alkyd (oil) product.. Prime with oil based (flat) primer.Helpful Reply
