My husband and I just had a big debate. We want to repaint out kitchen cabinets. He likes a finish that allows the wood texture to be slightly shown (not fully visible like in a staining job). I thought painint the cabinets would have that effect, but he insists it's some special type of staining. Can somebody please help out settling our arguments? Is that painting or staining? Thanks!
Hello FallingWind!
I've produced this video just for you to demo two products that will help settle your debate!
In the first video, I reference another video that shows "How To" prep and apply these products.
Have a look:
Finally, your cabinets can also be painted using an oil-based primer followed by water-based paint.
