Cabinet Painting in Chelsea, 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.
On Chelsea properties
Most of what we paint in Chelsea is dense two- and three-families. Two- and three-families on very small lots, brick multi-family blocks, and converted industrial buildings near the waterfront. Chelsea sits on Chelsea Creek and the harbour. Salt accelerates coating breakdown, and the tight lots mean you cannot easily stage to get at the affected elevations.
The way we work it
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.
Common failure we see
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.
