HVLP Technology: How We Achieve a Factory Finish on Kitchen Cabinets in Barnsley

HVLP (high-volume low-pressure) spray equipment produces micro-fine droplets that create a smooth, even film with no brush marks and no roller texture. Every kitchen cabinet door ColourHaus refinishes in Barnsley is sprayed off-site in a clean environment, then reinstated. This is the same method used by kitchen manufacturers and is why the result looks factory-produced rather than hand-painted.

Kitchen Cabinet Refinishing Barnsley: Frequently Asked Questions

What preparation is done before kitchen cabinet refinishing in Barnsley?

We degrease all surfaces with specialist solvent, sand to 180 grit to key the substrate, fill any chips or damage, and apply a professional primer before any colour coat. This preparation is included in every kitchen cabinet refinishing project in Barnsley.

How do you degrease kitchen cabinets before refinishing in Barnsley?

We use a specialist degreasing solvent that removes cooking oil, cleaning product residue and hand grease from every surface. Standard household cleaners do not achieve the level of cleanliness needed for paint adhesion, which is why professional degreasing is a critical step in Barnsley kitchen cabinet refinishing.

Do you sand kitchen cabinet doors before respraying in Barnsley?

Yes. Sanding to 180 grit is standard preparation for every kitchen cabinet refinishing project in Barnsley. This removes the gloss from the existing surface and gives the primer something to bond to, which is essential for long-term adhesion.

What primer is used for kitchen cabinet refinishing in Barnsley?

We use a professional adhesion primer specifically formulated for kitchen environments. It is compatible with MDF, solid wood, vinyl-wrapped and previously painted surfaces, and provides the foundation for the colour coat and protective topcoat.

How many coats are applied during kitchen cabinet refinishing in Barnsley?

A minimum of three coats are applied: primer, colour coat (typically 2 passes) and protective topcoat. The exact number depends on the colour change and the condition of the existing surface.

How do you ensure kitchen cabinet refinishing is chip-resistant in Barnsley?

Chip resistance comes from correct preparation, correct primer and a hard-wearing topcoat. ColourHaus uses professional-grade topcoats designed for kitchen environments, which are harder and more resistant to impact than standard decorating paints. All work is covered by a 5-year written guarantee.
