Cabinet Painting in Belmont, MA
Doors come off and get sprayed with cabinet-grade enamel for a factory-smooth finish. Degreasing and bonding primer are what make it last.
How this plays out in Belmont
Most of what we paint in Belmont is colonials and hillside estates. Large Colonial Revivals and Tudors on Belmont Hill, 1920s–1940s colonials through the centre, and two-families toward the Cambridge and Watertown lines. The Hill houses are large and detailed, with dormers, bays and extensive millwork. Prep alone runs days longer than a standard colonial.
What actually happens on site
Doors come off and get sprayed with cabinet-grade enamel for a factory-smooth finish. Degreasing and bonding primer are what make it last.
Doors and drawer fronts come off, get labelled, and get sprayed off site or in a controlled space. Boxes get degreased with a TSP substitute, scuffed, and brushed and rolled in place. Bonding primer on everything, sanded between coats with 220, then two coats of cabinet-grade enamel.
What usually fails
Grease is what kills cabinet jobs. Kitchen cabinets carry years of cooking film, and enamel over unwashed grease peels off in sheets at the door edges inside a year.
