The kitchen is the heart of the home where many of our most cherished memories are made. Because this room sets the tone for your home, it\u2019s important to keep it looking its best\u2014especially when it comes to your cabinets<\/a>.
<\/p>\n\n\n\n

If we\u2019re being honest, you probably know this already. Your camera roll might be filled with screen shots of dream kitchens, and you probably habitually scroll through design magazines searching for inspiration.
<\/p>\n\n\n\n

The good news is, cabinet refinishing is an affordable way to transform your kitchen<\/a>. But be careful before attempting this project yourself\u2014there are common mistakes DIYers make that can be costly in the long run. <\/p>\n\n\n\n

<\/div>\n\n\n\n

<\/p>\n\n\n\n

#1 – Choosing The Wrong Cabinet Color<\/strong>
<\/h3>\n\n\n\n

Selecting a trendy color or one that doesn\u2019t compliment your space is one of the easiest mistakes to make.
<\/p>\n\n\n\n

Instead, choose a neutral cabinet stain<\/a> or color<\/a> that both you and future buyers will love for years to come. Think colors like a natural wood tone, white, grey, or beige.
<\/p>\n\n\n\n

This opens the door for you to add unique pops of color in other ways\u2014like rugs, curtains, and barstools. These can easily evolve as your style does\u2014unlike a trendy kitchen cabinet color.<\/p>\n\n\n\n

<\/p>\n\n\n\n

<\/div>\n\n\n\n

#2 – Failing To Consider The Size Of Your Kitchen<\/strong>
<\/h3>\n\n\n\n

The square footage of your space is a crucial factor. Remember that dark cabinet colors can make your kitchen look smaller, while lighter, neutral tones can open up your space and make a kitchen feel bigger and more open.  <\/p>\n\n\n\n

<\/p>\n\n\n\n

<\/div>\n\n\n\n

#3 – Unrealistic Expectations For The Time And Effort Required<\/strong>
<\/h3>\n\n\n\n

If planning to refinish your kitchen cabinets yourself, prepare for at least a week of intensive work and a significant impact to your daily schedule. Having a professional refinish your cabinets<\/a> for you can actually be an affordable option\u2014requiring less of a sacrifice for you and assuring the job is done right the first time.<\/p>\n\n\n\n

<\/p>\n\n\n\n

<\/div>\n\n\n\n

#4 – Not Prepping The Wood Properly <\/strong>
<\/h3>\n\n\n\n

This is a crucial step in the cabinet refinishing process<\/a>. It\u2019s extremely important to make sure all grease, oils, and dust is removed from your cabinets prior to finishing and curing them<\/a>. This can be a time consuming task without the proper cleaning solution.
<\/p>\n\n\n\n

Instead, choose a professional like N-Hance who specializes in cabinet painting<\/a>. Our proprietary cleaning solutions turns your cabinets into a clean canvas for optimal results.<\/p>\n\n\n\n

<\/p>\n\n\n\n

<\/div>\n\n\n\n

#5 – Using The Wrong Primer And Paint<\/strong>
<\/h3>\n\n\n\n

Most professional painters and do-it-yourselfers use latex paint made for walls on cabinets. This paint isn\u2019t durable enough for cabinets, and because it\u2019s often brushed on, unwanted drips and brush strokes are often left behind.
<\/p>\n\n\n\n
