In my last post, Kitchen Makeover Part 1, we painted the oak cabinets that had come in the house when my parent’s purchased it {well only the bottom cabinets}. We just finished painting the top cabinets and a few things have changed in the process. In the first post I had said that priming was not necessary, and technically it’s not. However, after many many coats of paint, I decided to go out and buy primer for the cabinets and it changed my world! Instead of painting 5 coats, I painted two coats of primer and 1 {sometimes 2} coats of the Behr Ultra Premium Ultra Pure White Satin Paint on the top! The cabinets were done in half the time it took me to paint the bottom cabinets and they even looked better! I also skipped the sanding process once I decided to get the primer and the paint is holding up great!
