@@MrHelkish I don't think he is worried about the time it takes. More so that it is very irritating and uncomfortable. I agree it's obviously much better for your health to wear one.
50 grit too rough you will never get rid of those sand scratches. The old paint isnt peeling so id just sand it smooth and call it prepped. If removing old paint was desired then chemical paint stripper is your best bet. If you must sand use your shop vac equipped with a dust bag. That sander will easily accept the hose and boomski dust extraction.
Jeff, your videos are awesome. You remind me of all the great videos that my grandpa loved, but I was too young to appreciate. Don't get me wrong, I enjoy watching the HGTV/Magnolia Network/etc as much as the next person, but they're entertainment. You sir, you are a teacher. Thank you.
Absolutely love your content. Thanks to you ive rebuilt my basement bathroom from the ground up, tiled floor, custom tiled shower and all DIY. Your videos give people the confidence to do these larger projects. Coming from Sudbury Ontario area, we love you here!
Tack cloth is good for removing the dust and waterproof shelf liner can help afterward. Maybe its just me, but I prefer the inside of the cabinets to be lighter so you can see inside more easily when looking for things. The hook thing to hang the doors up is interesting. Wish I'd thought of that for my vanity doors but they are old plywood. Another way to do it would be to have two hooks so the doors don't move around so much. I don't usually paint the insides of the doors so I'd probably use loops on the back and S hooks to hold it on the bar. I don't have strong fingers so a drill bit or screwdriver would be good for moving the hooks. I'll have to see if I can set up something like this in my workshop but I'd use regular spray paint as I don't have the fancy paint sprayer. I'd probably hang stuff a little bit higher up so I wouldn't have to bend as far to spray underneath- I don't bend well. LOL. I'd rather have to use a stepstool or ladder to paint the top than have to bend down.
If you’re around the corner from Home Depot it is definitely more efficient to hold off on starting to sand for 15 minutes while you run out and get proper grit sand paper instead of wasting your time pushing through with 220 to tear through two layers of paint one of which likely being latex based
Also never sand material directly beside wet paint or primer… that’s a simple one even a diy guy knows that, you’re kicking up dust and particulates and they’re falling in the wet paint now you have tonnes of floaters and spots that to get a professional finish you have to sand out or in your case, landlord special and paint over
I would have used the fine finish tips if using an airless sprayer, and a much smaller spray pattern to reduce wasted paint in over spray. Also, the Sherwin Williams Gallery Series paint is specifically designed for cabinets, especialy kitchen ones.
I love your teaching style. Thanks for sharing the small tips and tricks as you go. You've helped me so much in my DIY home renovations. I appreciate you. 🙏
As a contractor you should be setting the example by using a respirator homeowners are going to be spraying and inhaling paint over spray which is not good for them
First things first he's trying to teach DIY people how to do this. People don't know you should wear a respirator and are unable to take care of themselves due to ignorance. If you want to spray without a respirator and inhale multitudes of chemicals that are not good for you go ahead and do it but if you purporting yourself as a teacher you should be teaching the correct thing I've been a painting contractor for 40 years oh my guys wear respirators I tell everybody that I interact with to wear a respirator Read the paint can and it'll tell you the same thing
@@urloverbaby219I did watch the entire video and he uses the dust mask for sanding and not spraying. Did you bother reading my comment about spraying. And do you understand the difference between spraying and sanding?
I would have started sanding with a small belt sander and 120 grit paper then switched to a palm sander with 120 then moved up to 180 then 220. Much faster that way. At least set a box fan in the window to blow the dust outside. Even better is to attach your shop vac to your sander.
If spraying cabinet boxes it’s always a good idea to poly of ceiling and walls / windows. Guaranteed buddy had overspray on the ceilings and wall lol this video was the ultimate landlord special
All his videos are landlords special. It all seems like he’s kinda doing it for the first time but pretending he isn’t. The fact he ran all that spray without a respirator 🤦♂️
N0 -if you change colors by just shoving the pickup in the new can the paint ends up being a blend of the 2 colors. You end up with a paint job where the color is a gradient changing from the old color to the new. It can take 1/2 gallon to get all the old paint out. You'll end up with a different shade until all the old color is gone. Just clean the machine, or have your primer tinted to the finish color. Also, you really ought to wear a mask. Breathing aerosol paint, even latex, is dangerous. That is a stupid way to save a few dollars.
Note that may have been missed is to put the hole that you drilled out of sight. So on the top for uppers and bottom for lowers so no one will see those little holes.
DIY tiled my kitchen backsplash, watched all your videos on that. So helpful. We just bought a cabin and the kitchen needs a facelift on a budget. This video is for me!!
HomeDepot has a citrus paint stripper that comes in a spray can. Works like a charm but be careful cause whatever you spray it on or over spray on it is coming off.
This may be a dumb question, but why here do you say dust must be cleaned because you can't paint dust, but in a wall painting vid I saw, you said there's no need to clean the dust after sanding between coats because the dust will simply add to the solids already in the paint?
Entertaining but - you should switch to RAC FFLP tips for cabinets - finish will be significantly better with much less overspray and spray texture. Very close to HVLP. I just sprayed Satin Emerald Urethane Trim on all my upstairs 6 panel doors and the finish is as good as factory lacquer cabinets. Uses much less pressure and paint pretty much runs at less than 1800 psi at tip. You have to get a BLUE guard to run the RAC X. Also Titan tips will also work with you existing ORANGE guard. God - please use a mask - you really don't want that overspray in your lungs.
Some good tips for dyers, all ill add is if you're young and spraying, if you touch that trigger you better have an actual respirator on if you want to dodge the risk of cancers at a young age, just cause you see Jeff over here winging it doesn't mean it's okay for you to also wing it and be as reckless as this. Jeff you're a mad lad for 22:30 lol, that sticky chemical overspray micro paint particles going right into your lungs. Well anyways, besides the health risks the end result looked like a great improvement, great job =)
Painting the builder's cheap pressboard kitchen cabinets white to cover the ugly dark stain was my first major reno project. Primer was my friend, I used a sprayer on the doors. It looked good for a decade and a half. My budget was miniscule so I used $1 sq. ft. tile on the countertops. No one told me I could rent a wet saw so the tiles were cut with a breaker bar.
Jeff, im going to repaint a dark solid wood TV cabinet. I tried to follow your steps exactly the same as the video you taught, the wood patterns still can’t hide. Any suggestions please?
Is the Airless spray gun, not to much? Perhaps great for walls. But you dont have a lot of time to get use to it as an beginner, its putting somuch paint and pressure on parts?
Our garbage company in Wash State requires us to put cat litter in empty paint cans. The litter absorbs all the paint and hardens, making disposal more eco friendly.
I love these videos. They encourage people to tackle projects way over their skill level. Meaning they have to pay more to have a pro fix it. Well done.
Jeff, I absolutely love watching your videos! The worst part is, you make everything look easy, then I get ideas that are beyond my reach. 😂 Regarding this kitchen paint job, I would love to do something like this in my current kitchen, but dust & overspray would be an issue. Yours was obviously a complete kitchen renovation - did you tape off much or have issues with overspray? Other than for the videoing purpose, did you not need a face mask or was there not much spray blow back? Thanks so much! Keep up with the great videos!
Hello, thank you for these informative videos. My fiance and I are currently in the process of purchasing a new build. We want to paint our cabinets and have questions. Since they will be brand new cabinets, are there steps we are able to skip in comparison to used cabinets?
I agree with a lot of the comments on this video. This is a pretty poor how to video, and there are plenty out there. I like a lot of Jeff’s videos but this one is a bit hard to get behind. Sanding after spraying primer…seems like he realized after the fact that he should’ve done this. Moving the intake from primer into emerald urethane without cleaning, and at the very least it should be flushed with water, but the proper way would be to clean it completely. Using a much too large spray tip, looked to be in the 500s, and not wearing a respirator when spraying, especially into a cabinet opening which ensures blowback. Why not spend a little extra time to teach viewers the correct way? Because he’s a smart guy and knows how. Not great on this one. I hadn’t even got to the door spraying before this comment. My god man. That might be the most awkward set up, not to mention the single hook, the drying right in the spray zone, and the height. Despite saying “plan it out to make things easy, it just makes sense,” nothing makes sense here.
@@muzic4lyfe2005you do know Jeff started off his career as a painter right? The thing op doesn’t realize is yeah he cut some corners but that’s the whole point of this series. He’s renovating under a budget and under a time crunch. He’s showing people it’s okay to do some things and it’ll be alright in the end. He said that when he put the white primer filled pump in the green canister. Op didn’t listen clearly. This series isn’t really a how to step by step. It’s a showing the process to make some people more comfortable with the idea of doing something without a big budget
@@Warpgatezworking under a budget doesn't mean cutting corners on safety. Just use a respirator when dealing with small airborne particles, for both sanding and spraying. I like a lot of his videos but this one felt like a newbie was awkwardly achieving a task without thinking anything through.
Where did you get the door and drawer fronts? did you measure and custom order or did you make them? I missed that in fo but am very interested in this project…..the wife saw it and guess what…..yea…..i’m doing ours to shaker style also….argggg!
All your videos are fantastic! I have been learning lot from your videos, I wanted to learn painting cabinets and you showed hot these cabinets are painted, I have calling for painters for cabines, they are asking ton of money to paint my cabinets, I recomment anyone who is looking to get paint cabinets. Please can you list your paint machine and what kind of machine we should buy? It is important to know about machine what to look for in machine specs. Thank you very much!
You absolutely can paint it with a brush and with a very small roller. That’s what I did and the result was excellent, and I didn’t compromise my lungs like he did here.
Watching this reminded me of the misery of refinishing my kitchen when I sold my house, sure looked good after though but man sanding and painting inside cabinets is just not fun.
How long did it take you to finish the cabinets? And they look great. I've been painting for some years and what I've learned from older guys who have been painting for 20+ years is that I've seen people who are "professionals " take weeks to do a job like this and in the end the cabinets turned out to look the same.
If you don’t know you don’t know. But don’t throw trash at professionals that do their job as they should. Painting cabinets is not a day or couple of days project. It can very well take a week+ . But if you’ve never done it before it’s understandable that you wouldn’t necessarily comprehend the amount of prep needed and the crazy masking involved if everything else stays in place such as countertops , backsplash tile and frankly all the paint around cabinetry. Throw in a picky customer that wants dead straight lines everywhere and if you don’t raise prices you’re going to hate your life painting that kitchen. Been there done that …
@@andrealaphilippe5926 im not throwing shade on professionals in general, but some, yes. And I've been doing cabinets for some years and there are some cabinets that can take a couple weeks depending on the project, and i prefer to do straight lines etc without having to hear it from the customers... learned to do my best going into the job to leave no room... but some do go the extra mile and look for the impossible. But my question and statement wasn't for the obvious things. I asked specifically how long it took for this particular project.
I've got a modular home, the cabinets have some kind covering on it that came from the manufacturer. Do I need to try and remove or lightly sand and primer it Love your videos 🎉❤
@@steve8803 I know it's a common saying but there is no such thing as free time. You're always giving something up by using it on something else. I do plenty of diy... But I don't pretend that time spent is free. Spending an hour to save 5 bucks isn't 5 bucks earned... It's more than that lost that could have been spent on something more productive
What brand of paint? I was going to use the Behr paint from home depot since we used it on our trim and I have leftover (semigloss) but sounds like you think that's a bad idea
Is there a good way to paint cheap laminate cabinets? I tried this expensive stuff called *Beyond Paint* that claimed no sanding or primer was needed, But the paint peels right off 🤦♂️
Yup costs 3 to 10k for a pro to painylt kitchens we have living costs we dont have a salary making 100k a year with amazing health plans and retirement we need to our asses off.
A lot of people don't like using the airless sprayer for small projects because of all the masking and cleanup. Problem solved, this video shows you how to put paint on things with no masking OR cleanup! Just don't do it!😂
To people complaining about the guy not wearing dust mask. Are you reallly expecting to get clear instructions from someone who wears a dust mask and just mumbling something through DIY educational video?.. Are you serious? Gìve him a little appreciation for his efforts to teach us.

When you spray you need to spray with the wide part of your spray fan also try using a smaller tip

Don't need to sand off the old paint since not peeling, just scuff it so the new primer will adhere. People swear by BIN Shellac primer.

If you attach the vacuum to the sander outlet port there will be a lot less dust.
Vacuuming works much better with a natural bristle brush attachment on the vac.
I used the same hooks but I used 2 per door so I wasn't chasing the doors as they swung
I actually appreciate the grit/thicker paint mistake and recover.y. Thats the same kind of mistake I have made before and so easy to forget lol.

Jeff, an airless sprayer is not ideal for kitchen cabinets, pressure at nozzle is above 1000 psi, which is too high for fine finish.
i turn down the pressure to almost nothing. works great
This reminds of that Bruce Lee movie, No Retreat, no surrender, when he throws the wood blocks back at the trainee
Beautiful job. This is how the pros do it
It seems that sprayer does not produce paint breeze, is that right ?
I have problems with my particle board faces. Like in the kitchen when washing dishes water drips down and warps it. It's awful
Could you tell me why can’t use a brush to paint？ must use a sprayer？

Looks great... but no masking of the windows?
Jeff loves to live on the wild side. You'll see when you get our age lol.
just don't spray at the window no problem. Cheers!
All that 220 dust straight into your primer!
60 grit for the prep? 220 grit for the finish. Correct?
yup!
no mask! love it!
Like breathing toxins?
??
Did he say SW Evergreen Moss? That's a pretty color.
Evergreen FOG "Got it!"
I've got a modular home, the cabinets have some kind covering on it that came from the manufacturer. Do I need to try and remove or lightly sand and primer it
Love your videos 🎉❤
when in doubt scuff and prime with a flat oil. Cheers!
I can do two of these in a day easy
Have you ever painted thermafoil cabinets?
B4 or after the thermofoil delaminated. Lol
Painting over stained cabinets?
Most people have know idea what the color is in side their cabinets.
Had me at "pain in the butsky". 🤩
Drink when he says
- Less is more
- That's not goin' anywhere
- Know the end from the beginning
Any other Jeff sayings??
Perfect every time!
That's money in the bank
Here we go with another banger!!!
Cheers!
bro this is 4000 in sweat equity. its a wash. not to mention it being done right.
A favorite color and a classy look
Great job , What tip did u use Jeff ?
the one that comes with the sprayer. Cheers!
Is that the project plus or x5, x7
If it cost you 600 on a 4000 quote...how many hours did you spend and what would you bill yourself out at per hour?
@hoorayforyoutoob diy'ers tackle projects in their FREE time. A Penney saved is a Penney earned!
@@steve8803 I know it's a common saying but there is no such thing as free time. You're always giving something up by using it on something else.
I do plenty of diy... But I don't pretend that time spent is free. Spending an hour to save 5 bucks isn't 5 bucks earned... It's more than that lost that could have been spent on something more productive

Bring your left over paint to the recycle rather than let it dry out. It is free to you and the solvents get reused.
What brands of primer and paint did you use? Thank you
sherwin williams , prep rite and latex enamel.
What brand of paint? I was going to use the Behr paint from home depot since we used it on our trim and I have leftover (semigloss) but sounds like you think that's a bad idea
He is using Sherwin Williams paint
find a good smooth finish with enamel.
You say home depot paint is bad, but what paint is good? What store do you go to?
He is using Sherwin Williams paint
I like C2, Sherwin Williams , Dulux, PPG, Pittsburgh paints, Benjamin Moore
@@HomeRenoVisionDIY Thanks!
Is there a good way to paint cheap laminate cabinets? I tried this expensive stuff called *Beyond Paint* that claimed no sanding or primer was needed, But the paint peels right off 🤦♂️
always scuff the surface and then prime with a flat oil. Cheers!
Dust mask and kitchen enamel work for me
Thanks bro. Good job.
Maybe a 4 grand paint job would get you a better color? 🤣
There's no accounting for taste.
It's not a terrible color
The cabinets look great!
Cheers!
So knowledgeable. Thank you!
Cheers Sue!
Holy crap! So many triggers in this video. The worst being the dirty spray gun and then switch from primer to paint. Such sloppy careless work
Yup costs 3 to 10k for a pro to painylt kitchens we have living costs we dont have a salary making 100k a year with amazing health plans and retirement we need to our asses off.
thanks n God bless u for share this.
Happy to be of some help. Cheers!
A lot of people don't like using the airless sprayer for small projects because of all the masking and cleanup. Problem solved, this video shows you how to put paint on things with no masking OR cleanup! Just don't do it!😂
Should definitely use a blue housing with a fine finish tip much better finish
Anyone else think his voice is the exact same as red green 😂
I do !
So how much do you price your time? 0
Lets see what they look like in 6 months.
Use boat paint. It will never peel.
oh ya did! haha watch whole episode then comment. I get it
To people complaining about the guy not wearing dust mask. Are you reallly expecting to get clear instructions from someone who wears a dust mask and just mumbling something through DIY educational video?.. Are you serious? Gìve him a little appreciation for his efforts to teach us.
Cheers Andy.!
Can I repaint melamine white cabinets??
