If you’re painting cupboard doors or drawers, the easiest way to do this is to take them off the units and lay them flat. If your wood is in good condition, just give it a light sand with 240grit sandpaper. This’ll help the paint stick.
If the paint is flaking or cracked, you’ll need to sand it back to bare wood. Use 120grit sandpaper and sand in the direction of the woodgrain. Remember to wear a face mask. Vacuum any dust and wipe down with a damp cloth.
Fill any holes or cracks with our Multi Purpose or High Performance Wood Filler. Be careful preparing any wood that was painted before 1960, as it may be coated with lead paint.
Give the paint a really good stir. Then paint it on with a synthetic brush or foam roller in the direction of the woodgrain. It’ll be touch dry in just 1 hour.
Most of the time one coat is all you ever need. But, if you’re painting over a bold colour you may need a second coat. If this is the case, leave the first coat to dry for 4 hours. Then give it a light sand with 240grit sandpaper and wipe with a damp cloth. Once the surface is dry put the second coat on.
