🛠 These 4 Tools Make the Biggest Difference
Cabinet Prep
Degreases and dulls your cabinet surface—so primer and paint stick (and stay stuck).
Cabinet Mud
Fills the oak grain and levels out imperfections—essential for a smooth, “factory-like” finish.
Cabinet Brush
Designed specifically for painting cabinet frames and edges with fewer brush marks.
Cabinet Shine
Protect your finish and gently clean painted cabinets after the job is done.
📦 Cabinet Kits That Make Life Easier
Want to skip the guesswork? I built three cabinet painting kits with the most essential tools—no fluff, just what works.
Basic Cabinet Kit
Just the essentials for a small kitchen or vanity.
Advanced Cabinet Kit
Full setup for prep, paint, and pro-level finish.
Pro Cabinet Kit
Includes everything from the Advanced Kit, plus Cabinet Prep, Mud, and Shine—our most complete system.
