What is the difference between kitchen cabinet painting and kitchen cabinet refinishing?

There are major difference between painting and refinishing from the installation process to materials used. Most people who paint cabinets use a locally sourced trim paint meant for interior walls or trim, while a refinisher uses something actually designed for kitchens and hard use. Paint has a short lifespan and sets up the homeowner into a cycle that requires repainting every 3-5 years due to coating failure . A refinisher can give you a true wood coating that will last double even triple that due to its ability to withstand kitchen chemicals, grease and daily wear and tear. We scoured the market to find the best wood coatings product that was safe for the environment, yet able to hold up to the daily grind of the typical family kitchen. The product we chose gets baked on in our state of the art spray booth. This provides you with a factory style finish that you can be proud of.


Why we like Enviorlak wood coatings products.

• It’s environmentally friendly. No harmful fumes for you or your family.
• Durable. It uses a hardener to create an extremely durable, rock hard finish that can stand up to the toughest kitchen messes and their clean up requirements. Believe it or not, there are several painters in West Michigan that use a paint that comes off with window cleaner! Yup! Not Envirolak! It won’t even come off with nail polish remover.
• Envirolak can be baked. Paint does not like be baked-on. It bubbles up. Ask us how we know!
• Envirolak allows us to color match the primer. This gives you a superior finish with no chance of bleed through. Even on the toughest oak stain.
• They stand behind their product. We have used some big brand finishes in the past. We were sick and tired of seeing finish failure with big brand names that refused to stand behind their product. These were extremely expensive finishes that would often times fail inside of 3 years and be called normal life expectancy. The last thing we want is for you to have to call us back in 2-5 years due to finish failure.
