This is a family business. We take care of our customers. Thank you! 🙏
I'm a general contractor, and i do a lot of kitchen and bath renovations, and i have occasional clients who request kitchen refinishing. I typically steer them away from it because of some of the poor jobs I've seen done. But your work in this video has opened my eyes to new possibilities. Thank you for sharing. Great job. I learned from my father as well, and I'm so grateful for his tutelage, as i make a great living doing things he and i shared before he passed. Blue Collar Pride is a real thing!
Your comment is humbling Garrett. I'm just recently venturing out on my own to do handyman/GC work as well and admitting there's always still so much to know is refreshing. Glad you're loving what you're doing and are successful, it helps!
👍🏼👍🏼👍🏼
Me personally I would have waited till the stone top was removed. That would avoid any damage to the beautiful job you did.
Opened my mind into refurbing rather than replacing great work fella
I watch the 36 minutes and enjoyed every one of them! Your a great painter and your a great teacher. Thank you for all the tips and I will be using them this summer to do my kitchen oak cabinets. I know I need to aqua coat first a couple of times, then I will be che king your 36 minute video again and taking notes! I saved your video and now I am subscribed ! Thank you again from 🇨🇦🇨🇦🇨🇦
I am a 60 yr old woman who is renovating my house. I not only watched it i rewind at the good parts and take notes😊
Making a 2nd comment here - I have watched so many of your videos at this point over the last 6 months getting ready to tackle our cabinets. We finally did this week and I just have to say, thank you.
Your advice has been priceless and we followed it to a 'T'. Paint selection, primer, home sprayer type, paint to water ratios, effort put into properly taping/prep, how fast to spray, all of it. I was terrified we were going to ruin our cabinets and I couldn't be more pleased with how they turned out.
Thank you for putting this channel out and taking the time to film it, it made a big difference for us.
Where did you get the sprayer my friend
Nice work!
@@daggerdick073Actually found it on FB marketplace for $100. Used the Flexio 5000 and it worked like a dream
Yes I’ve watched the entire 36 minutes. Very informative. Studying now for when I do my daughter’s cabinets in about a month. I have never used a sprayer but I plan to practice first. Thanks for sharing
Made my day seeing this comment!
As a contractor for years, I am pleased that good contractors like yourself are still out there doing their best. Thank you for sharing all that most never see what it takes to do it right!
As a Construction Inspector and project Manager for many decades I watched and enjoyed every minute of this video. Real "craftsmen" are a rare find these days. Attention to detail, good prep work, keeping the worksite safe and clean, and quality products are all the necessary components to a good job that lasts for years. Nice work! Even if your son never paints another cabinet he has learned invaluable lessons the will apply to any career he chooses. Good job for teaching him these valuable life lessons!
OUTSTANDING! Watched all 36 minutes! Our kitchen is almost EXACT as this kitchen! I was quite nervous to paint white over dark wood. You did an INCREDIBLE job showing and detailing EACH STEP, and why. I loved that you shared all of your tools and paints used! Including the drying rack! I now know what to buy!! You and your son must be incredibly proud of your work and the finished product! I am certain the home owners must be thrilled! Thank you so much! I now have the confidence after watching your video from beginning to end to move forward!
Watching one year later and was impressed by all the care you took. Loved watching you and your son. I will watch more of your videos ! 🎉
Nice job. I painted hundreds of cabinets for 20 years.
I watched the entire video. I’m a 75 yr old woman and want to do a few smaller projects, no sprayers for me. But the painting hints really help. You sure put lots of work into your work, I can tell you’re very proud of what you do.
You should try an electric spray from home depot or something similar. I used one to paint a wood fence as well as the eaves and fascia of the house. Really holds up well and is convenient, especially since brushing or rolling can be tedious. I typically use water based and dilute a bit until a even flow and texture is being applied.
I also watched the whole video and I’m going to watch it again with my husband. Thank you so much. I’m sure I will not find a better one.
Just bought the Flexio 5000. I don’t even have a big project but Amazon had a payment plan that I couldn’t pass up
Hi from Australia. Beautiful job! I can see now why it's not cheap to have my kitchen painted. You've inspired me to wrap out my pergola and give a spray gun a go! Thank you. Great video ! ❤
Excellent video tutorial! Watched the whole thing, was edited well, no extra that didn't need to be in it.
Best video I've found. Excellent work! Came out beautifully!
We own a plastering & stucco company so I appreciate the quality of your work! Good stuff!
Watched all 34 minutes. There are very few videos that show how much effort goes into this level of full size kitchen update. I love how you clearly defined how important and time consuming the prep work is, and the quality of work shows through at the end. Now when homeowners say, it's just paint, there's a way to convert that into money... (5 days x two people x hourly rate) + materials and all of a sudden it makes sense. And thanks to your helpers. Very well done.
thats why it would probably be cheaper and faster to have a new kitchen put in
@@ritmolatino1627 Cabinet prices have skyrocketed. A PAINTED three drawer base cabinet "ready to assemble" is $700+ at Lowes.
Yes. I echo that sentiment. There's a ton of time and effort required in achieving results everyone can be happy with. This is a great illustration of that. I think I'll use this video as a sales tool for upcoming jobs. It really will help clients justify the price in their own minds without me having to do any convincing.
If $1000/day/person x5 days that’s $10K. Can’t get new cabinets and installation anywhere near that for that size kitchen, IMO.
@@AscDrewAgree
Amazing video. More amazing was seeing you speak whilst you were painting and prepping. Very clear and a very clean job. Watching all 36 mins was well worth seeing experienced workmanship.
I could watch you paint all day long. Quite therapeutic. Thanks for sharing.
😂
I was once advised that painting white on white is very difficult. To ensure complete coverage it helps if you add a touch of yellow paint to the first coat allows you to see exactly where you are up to.
This was one the best “How to…” videos I’ve seen for kitchen painting. Although still challenging for a very novice painter like myself. I feel you explained in great detail especially the preparation steps.
I watched the entire video! It is 36 mins but you keep things moving along and your voiceover is great and easy to understand, THANK YOU for letting us know how your mind works when you are doing such great work 👍🏼
I watched all of it during my lunch break! Your spray painting skills were very satisfying! 😅
This is, by far, the best kitchen cabinet tutorial I've seen on CZcams. I've taken notes and will be painting my kitchen cabinets asap.
Wow, this was so thorough. The pride you take in your work is unsurpassed. Great job.
Awesome job! I am 100% with you on preparation, like the old saying, "fail to prepare, prepare to fail". My eldest daughter gets married soon, they have just got their house and we decided the kitchen units needed painting, watching this video opened my eyes and gave me the knowledge I needed. Ps, I am a retired teacher/trainer and loved your presentation👏👊
All 36 minutes here. Absolutely outstanding job. I am ready to renew my 1964 kitchen cabinets
My husband and I watched the entire video! Absolutely superior job. We really want to have our kitchen cabinets painted. If there was someone in our area who could do the job as perfectly as you, we would hire them immediately.
What area are you. I do same steps and quality. He is very good.
My kitchen cabinets look similar, but in worse shape. I have seen inferior work so I love seeing that it might be possible to do a good job with great prep work.
Great quality work! Very impressed. 32 year contractor myself. Wonderfull to know the quality craftsmanship is being carried on. What a wonderful message for your son.
I enjoy watching a true craftsman at work, making a ridiculously difficult and frustrating job look easy and sound fun … great work!
Omg! Watched every min....paused & wrote down choices of paint types & why! Truly appreciated & didn't realize just how much work is involved!
I have to say this has been one of the best kitchen spraying videos I've seen. Great info. Great pace. Answers a lot of questions. And of course the work was top notch. I also liked the humility shown about missed tasks or missed spots. Very true to life.
Thank you for this video. After watching it perhaps one more time, I'll be ready to tackle my kitchen cabinets. My bravery is based on the fact that, if I mess up, they're mine and I am more than willing to do whatever it takes to come out with a near, if not flawless finish. Thanks again for the inspiration.
My favorite thing to paint is kitchen cabinets as a pro painter. This is the first video I have seen that is awesome quality and done the right way. You are so right, its all in the prep. The prep is the worst, hardest most technical part of the job. The outcome is 100% dependent on the quality of the prep. Love how you explained everything. Did I say I love painting/refinishing kitchen cabinets. The best part is the reveal to the home owner and even seeing the outcome for myself. I always feel like I can step up my game with little touches to do a better job. Your video was awesome to help with that. You are a huge credit to the industry.
Thanks so much for the kind words! I really appreciate it!
Worth the 33 minutes of my life. Achieving a smooth finish is always my biggest concern when painting cabinets but feeling a lot more confident now. Great job!
I've been doing kitchen cabinets with advance for many many years. This is my process, almost, to a T! Great work from both of you
It was only 33:56, but I watched every second. The cabinets did look great! Thank you for sharing the video.
36 minutes--I did it!! I learned: it's a heckuva lot of work to paint cabinets; there's more prep time than painting time; there's more cleanup/touch up time than painting time; a lot of costly supplies are needed and then thrown away; high quality equipment is required to get a high quality end result; and, I should not do this myself! Thanks for doing this video!
We are buying our first home and I want to redo the original oak cabinets, so I'm doing my homework on youtube. You're the only person I've seen that actually shows the preparation process really well. Thank you!!
Such a fantastic video! From how much to cut the paint to the product recommendations to the wisdom behind ear protection. Thirty-six minutes well spent. Thank you.
I’m remodeling our new home, and we are painting the cabinets ourselves. I’ve seen some bad outcomes for DIY painting on tiktok, but I feel so prepared now! This was the most thorough video I have found, and I watched every minute!
I was all in once you started taping up the areas. Watched the whole video. I’m a mom of 4 just got a house and I’m diy my kitchen cabinets. Thanks for this
I watched the whole 33.56 minutes of your video. You and your son did a fabulous job! I am in the stage of planning to pain my own kitchen cabinets. I love how your cabinets turned out. They look so professional and glass like. I will invest in a good paint sprayer, and prep materials. Thank you for this video!
Watched it! You are SUCH a good teacher. I read everything at your website and watched your previous videos (multiple times!). Finally went for it and painted my kitchen cabinets 6 months ago. I then ventured on to my master bath, and am just putting my 'public bath' back together as we speak! It all came out absolutely gorgeous - such an amazing transformation. I especially love the grain filler trick on my ancient oak cabinets. What a difference THAT made. Thanks so much for sharing your knowledge and expertise.
Did you use sheetrock mud for the oak filling?
@@angryw4nderer Yes I did. Could have gone heavier on it because I can still see some grain, but a big improvement as is.
I had no idea just how involved something like this is. The prep work is insane but I can see where the attention to detail here leads to a great final product! Congrats on a job well done!
I'm a new painter starting out, and this video was incredibly helpful. Thank you for taking the time to make it.
I did watch the entire video. I have 1950 ‘s wood cabinets that I’m contemplating painting white. They are pine or cedar and they look very orange. I like to see the grain, but I just don’t like the orangey wood. I got some very helpful tips from your video and really do appreciate your attention to detail. Thanks for posting!
Hi,yes I watched the entire process, enjoyed your commentary, I'm a retired carpenter and I have fitted many kitchens, but I must say you've done a great job on this makeover, watching from the other side of the world, Cape Town ,South Africa, stay safe.
I’m about to do this to my kitchen all by myself. You are my inspiration! I wish it’d be as easy as you made it look, but I appreciate the whole 34 minutes of tips!
How did it go?
Me to what color are you going with I have dark marble top and dark hand etched floors
Frog tape will take paint off the wall.
I built the rack and it was wonderful. I would suggest slightly thicker dowels
as the 1/2" dowel does sag under the weight of the doors. Plus the 4" distance between dowels is tight. You have to really be careful when sliding the doors in.
GREAT VIDEQ I AM THINKING ABOUT HIRING SOMEONE AND THIS LET ME KNOW WHAT TO LOOK FOR AND QUESTIONS TO ASK. THANK YOU
I stayed for the whole time. Beautiful job. It’s nice to see the dedication required for a PERFECT JOB. The Prep work looked like a horrible job to have to do. You all did a wonderful job. You and your son worked well together.
Beautiful video! Great to see your son there :) You are a master house-painting artist 👨🏼🎨. Thank you for the diligence you represent. My favorite uncle (Jake) was a WW2 army veteran who became a house painter. I’m glad to see you protecting your lungs & brain! God bless you!
Just watched this entire video. I'm about to do my kitchen cabinets and this helped me so much! I hope my kitchen cabinets turn out as nicely as these did.
I’m getting ready to paint my kitchen cabinets and I definitely will use some of the tips you recommended! I did watch the 34 min video, it was well worth it and thank you for taking the time to go through it all in such great detail. It really only felt like 10min! I also liked the rack you put the doors on.
36 minutes here! One year later. Great video. Thank you.
Very patient and professional work. Love the detail.
Wow, beautiful work! I love when folks take the extra time to do the boring work like preping very good and all the cleaning bc someone that has true experience and is a professional will take the time for that amazing end result. Amazing. I am just wondering how much did this all cost? That was a lot of work. You did amazing. BRAVO!!!
This was such an amazing video. I loved every minute of it because you & your son were so thorough in all the steps you took to paint the cabinets. They turned out so beautifully & your customer’s kitchen looks so awesome. Time for them to have a nice dinner & show off their new kitchen. Great job guys!
36 minutes. Easy viewing. Great instruction and narrative. Thanks!
I watched the whole thing man. Good Job!!! I now feel confident enough to do my own cabinets and take all the extra steps to make sure it is done right.
It’s great you’re bringing your son on and teaching him how to work and do things himself. My dad and uncle always had me help them at work and those skills I learned brought me very far in life
This was really neat to watch! So much detail and work in painting the cabinets. It’s like art, really though. Fantastic job !👏🏼
I watched the whole video. Loved every minute of it. Thanks for sharing.
Your organization and teaching skills are fantastic. Excellent job, Ryan!
This was brilliant to watch. What an amazing transformation 😮 you’re fantastic. Such care and attention to detail. It’s so lovely to see someone take so much pride in their work! Well done 👍🏽👏🏽🤩🤩🤩
I honestly can't believe I watched the entire video! Your method of instruction, process etc was flawless! Great information and final product!
That's a LOT of work. Excellent job.
Great job!! Love the narrative while watching rather than talk as you go it turned out so nice - such a difference than in the brush method. And loved your son’s attention to detail while sanding - he looks like a perfectionist - what a great trade to know. Thank you all for your work - it’s just lovely. Enjoyed your video. 🌻🌻👍
That looks amazing! I’m a sucker for before and after projects. Nicely done!
So glad I found this channel. I resurface counters and tubs full time but have started dabbling in the cabinet world recently and haven’t had anyone teaching me the right way to do it so this is super helpful lol
@joseph Chubb can you offer some tips on resurfacing tubs and kitchen sinks? I’m tackling that soon
I would Love to know how You painted Your Bathtub
What Paint and preparations have to be done
Plastic, Metal & Fiberglass so this last & also a Sink.
Any Tips on this would be Greatly Appreciated.
I watched the entire video. You do an awesome job explaining. Thank you!
I watched every second of this video! I love the white! Looks perfect!
Beautiful transformation. Thank you for explaining your process. I will definitely implement your processes when I repaint our kitchen cabinets.
Awesome awesome video! I'm a weekend worrier interior roller painter who's slowly developed a love for the art. My plans are to eventually shadow someone with cabinetry/HPLV experience. Watching your video was like the next best thing (2 thumbs up). I really loved how you shared details on time, things to look out for, tools used, etc. Actually your 30 minute video didn't feel long at all. Your work is amazing! Again great job to you, your son and your son's friend.
I watched the whole video twice!! Thank you for all the information.
I watched all 36 minutes, very informative. Thank you
You do great work. The cabinets look amazing!
I watched the whole thing and BOY you are the guy everyone needs to do their cabinets!👍🙏🏼👍🏽💕
Your attention to details, the care you took in every step, I just loved watching this video.
Thank you so much for taking the time to film and edit this video. It was all perfect🙏🏼💕
Wow a lot of prep work. I m so glad I watched this!
Definitely watched this while video because it had so many great nuggets! Thank you for taking the time to do this!
We are so glad we watched the entire video! We loved the amount of tips you gave, from the drying rack, to the caulking. We bought some used cabinets and are planning to paint them all for use in our remodel and I am certain so many tips from you will make the difference!
Thank you so much for taking the time and effort to record this job and share it with us.
I did watch the entire video and gained a lot from it, particularly the 20% dilution of the paint for better atomisation (Australian spelling). Wonderful finish to the cabinets.
Great videos, love your attention to detail and discussing equipment and tools that you used. Truly appreciate all the time you spent on this.
Amazing video. I loved how you explained the process in detail and I learned so much from this video.
Great job on the painting and the video. I've done a few kitchens with both airless and hvlp and always seem to underestimate how long it will take. It was good to see this and compare. Thanks for sharing so generously!
I just watched this entire video. I’m not a painter nor am I looking to get my cabinets painted right now but this was fascinating to see the entire process of a job like this. The commentary was fantastic and the results looked great!
I watched from start to finish.. Excellent work
Thank you - planning my kitchen renovation. Your video was excellent. Thanks for all the pointers!
Great video. Didn’t seem too long because of the detail you go into. About to embark on painting our kitchen cupboards & this video has been incredibly helpful for me. Will be my first time doing cupboards and now I feel prepared. Thank you for all the tips, especially caulking, and product info.
I watched all 36 minutes. Absouletly beautiful. I have med oak cabinets that i plan to paint white soon so your tips are priceless. 🎉
I watched your entire video and appreciated the time you took to make it. I’m thinking about doing my own kitchen cabinets and found your video very helpful. Thank you.
I've watched this several times and am so glad I found this! Thank you for making the video!
I'm a cabinet painter and I watched the whole video! You're a wonderful teacher and give great tips! It was nice to hear that other painters make mistakes and have trials and errors on their stuff too!
Nice work! You make it look easy, despite the challenges. I did custom cabinet finishing in a cabinet shop for 6 yrs, and have only thought about taking my skill outside to do the kind of work you did in this video. Yes, I watched the entire length. Thank you!
I watched the whole video- you guys did a great job. Learned so much. You were very detailed. Thank you
I watched the entire thing and loved it! Thank you so so much for all this amazing information and industry knowledge! This is really really helpful! I so appreciate all your hard work and all your prep work!
Great great video! Thank you so much! We are homeowners wanting to spray our cabinets ourselves and this is SO HELPFUL. We appreciate your great explanations and the DAY 1, DAY 2, and DAY 3. Gives us a realistic timeline. Also, thank you for your humility about the black countertops! We all wish we did something different in hindsight. GREAT VIDEO.
Yep I watched the whole thing! Very nice job! I’m a perfectionist and obviously you are too. I find it amazing what you can learn watching these videos, like a thin line of paintable caulking where surfaces meet and painted they look so seamless.
Yes, I watched all 36 minutes! Thanks for all the wonderful tips. Kitchen looks great!!
Looks great! a lot of prep but clean work👌🏼and the attention to detail is superb 👍🏻 loved it!
The cabinets look amazing. Perhaps you could do a mock-up of the different finishes on a door so we can see the difference between them. I enjoyed watching your process.😊😊😊
Thanks! Thanks!Thanks! My father was a Dutch master carpenter- I REALLY appreciate your detailed explanation and pride in your work.
I am hoping to use this video instructional inspiration to paint my small kitchen this year and learned so much I feel confident I can DIY other paint projects.
Also - my brothers and I worked alongside my dad like your son does here and he also worked with some of my brothers friends who have all told me as adults that although they don’t do the same work as when they worked with my father what they learned from him about work ethic has been invaluable and added to their success.
I just watched the hole video. Great job on the cabnet. Love how you explained about the paint and prep work.
Your attention to detail and steps in your work results in a fantastic finish. Excellent work!
I did watch the entire video and am especially impressed with your prep and care for the surrounding ceilings and walls. My dad was a painter by trade and I worked with him for many years so I know the skill and experience needed to do quality work. If you lived in Eastern Ontario I would hire you in a heartbeat.
How much would you charge for a job like this??
@@tommyneal1491 I'd charge $5500 here in Texas for this job. I use Advance with coverstain primer
I watched the whole thing. (Granted, I’m in a hotel room on business with nothing better to do).
Pretty inspiring. I think it’s a safe bet that we will end up doing this to our kitchen sometime in the next 2 years so you’re in my ‘saved to watch later’ list.
Thanks again!
I watched the whole video and have learned a massive amount. Very very informative, great job fella
