This durable, fast-drying paint is perfect for DIY enthusiasts and professionals alike. Follow these steps to achieve a beautiful, long-lasting finish on your kitchen cabinets.

Step 1: Gather Your Supplies

Before you begin, make sure you have all the necessary supplies:

  • Wise Owl One Hour Enamel Paint
  • Wise Owl Stain Eliminating Primer
  • GreenEZ Cleaner
  • Microfiber cloths
  • Soft-bristled brush
  • Sanding block or green scrubby sponge
  • Painter’s tape
  • Paint Sprayer, brushes or rollers (microfiber 3/16 inch roller recommended)
  • Drop cloths or plastic sheeting
  • Gloves

Step 2: Prepare the Cabinets

Proper preparation is crucial for a smooth, professional finish.

  1. Empty the Cabinets: Remove all items from your cabinets to ensure you can clean and paint every surface thoroughly.
  2. Clean with GreenEZ Cleaner: Spray GreenEZ Cleaner onto a microfiber cloth or directly onto the cabinet surfaces. Wipe down the cabinet doors, handles, and inside surfaces. For stubborn stains or grease, let the solution sit for a minute before wiping.
  3. Rinse and Dry: Wipe down the cabinets with a clean, damp cloth to remove any residue from the cleaning solution. Dry the surfaces thoroughly with a dry microfiber cloth to prevent water damage.
  4. Sand the Surfaces: Lightly sand the cabinet surfaces with a sanding block or green scrubby sponge to increase adhesion. Wipe away any dust with a lint-free rag or use a vacuum cleaner. Do Not use a tack cloth.

Step 3: Prime the Cabinets

  1. Apply Primer: Use Wise Owl Stain Eliminating Primer to ensure the best adhesion and to block any stains or tannins from bleeding through the paint. Apply two coats of primer, allowing each coat to dry completely before applying the next.
  2. Sand Between Coats: Lightly sand between coats of primer to ensure a smooth surface. Wipe away any dust before applying the next coat.

Step 4: Paint with Wise Owl One Hour Enamel Paint

  1. Stir the Paint: Stir the One Hour Enamel Paint thoroughly before use. Avoid shaking the can to prevent bubbles
  2. Apply the First Coat: Use a paint sprayer, microfiber roller or a high-quality paintbrush to apply the first coat of paint. Apply the paint evenly, covering the entire surface. Feather out the paint gently to avoid brush marks
  3. Let It Dry: Allow the first coat to dry for at least two hours before applying the second coat.
  4. Apply the Second Coat: Apply a second coat of paint, ensuring even coverage. Let the paint dry completely.

Step 5: Reassemble Your Kitchen

  1. Remove Painter’s Tape: Carefully remove any painter’s tape from the cabinets.
  2. Reattach Hardware: Once the paint is fully cured, reattach the cabinet doors and hardware.
  3. Replace Items: Return all items to your cabinets and enjoy!!
