Kitchen cabinet painting is one of the highest-value investments in a home renovation budget. For a fraction of the cost of new cabinetry, a professional cabinet refinish completely transforms the look and feel of a kitchen. The result — when done right with proper prep and spray application — is indistinguishable from factory-finished cabinets.
Cornerstone Pro Painting uses a spray-applied finishing process for all cabinet painting. Doors and drawer fronts are removed, sanded, primed, and spray-finished in a controlled environment for a smooth, brush-mark-free result. Frames are masked and sprayed in place. We use durable enamel topcoats — Benjamin Moore Advance or Sherwin-Williams Emerald Urethane — that cure to a hard, washable surface.

All surfaces are sanded to remove gloss and improve adhesion. A bonding primer is applied — this is the most critical step for long-term durability.
Doors are spray-finished in a clean, dust-free environment. Frames are masked and sprayed in place. Multiple coats are applied with sanding between coats.
Doors are rehung, adjusted for alignment, and hardware is reinstalled. We do a final inspection for runs, sags, or missed spots before we leave.
Most kitchen cabinet painting projects take three to five days — door removal and priming on day one, finish coats over the following days, reinstallation on the final day.
We use Benjamin Moore Advance or Sherwin-Williams Emerald Urethane Trim Enamel — both are waterborne alkyd products that cure to a very hard, durable finish ideal for cabinets.
With proper prep — sanding, bonding primer, and quality enamel topcoat — properly applied cabinet paint holds up to daily use for many years. Skipping prep is the cause of most cabinet paint failures.
Yes, with the right primer. Laminate requires a bonding primer designed to adhere to non-porous surfaces. We assess the material before specifying the primer.
Yes. We can paint cabinets any colour — from white to navy to sage to black. Very dark colours going over very light backgrounds may require an extra coat.
