Kitchen Cabinets Restoration

The south house needs a lot of works.   Without a lot of money to toss at it there are still some things I can do.   First on this list is the kitchen cabinets.  They have enough paint on them that they do not operate correctly.

Prior to starting.

Current state.  Storing stripped doors on countertops to keep them flat.


I have removed the paint from the front and back of 13, about half of the doors.  The uppers came clean to the wood.   The lowers are retaining some paint in the grain. The 2nd door from the rear is a lower.

The doors are the easy part.   The drawers then the rest of the cabinets will be harder.

I am setting up the living room to use for painting.  Current plan is to spray with Alkyd Enamel.  Maybe with a hardener.

Mostly missing a heater atm.   When I get to spraying paint with a gun I need to bring the compressor over and setup a fresh air supply hood or resperiator.

Update:
pulled the rest of the doors and all the drawers on the kitchen units.  Still need to pull the dozen or so doors on the pantry.
