Cheap + special. Kitchen cabinet doors & drawer faces... Latex over Semigloss-issues with peeling paint on cabnit doors because someone oainted over dirt greese ect. Plus they replaced some cabnit doors with partical board & painted it. Cheap & easy fix ideas for a lady that walks with a cane & a Mr who is having back issues.

    Problem is,the latex over oil with no prep. They will continue to peel until you can sand off the old latex or strip it off. Sorry you are in for a big mess.

    Sand them lightly and paint them, we painted it white and the doors black, put new hardware and it made our kitchen much nicer

    Take one of the drawers or cabinet doors to the paint dept. at your home improvement store and ask for their advice on products and methods to repair...they will give you ideas you may have never thought of.

    I'm kind of leaning towards trying something new. Material-pleated to look like a curtain. But, I havent figured out how to attach it where it wont come down till I'm ready to launder them, or easy change out....
