I recorded most of this kitchen cabinet makeover to share with my sister and then I realized others might like to see it too. I used Beyond Paint - Ash, Soft Gray.
I did not sand, I did not prime. I do see brush marks. I do get chipped paint. I'm absolutely delighted with the result and wouldn't hesitate to do it again.
I did this indoors over Winter months. It probably took me about me about 20-25 hours to apply 2-4 coats of paint on the inside and outside of all the cabinet doors. Then another 3-5 hours to put the doors back up and add the hardware. Approximately 40 hours, all in, over a months time.
Was I nervous, yes. I read a gazillion blog posts and watched a few videos until I felt confident and then I made a plan of action that worked for me and my family to get 'er done.
If you are looking for something permanent, I recommend speaking with a professional about the necessary materials. My kitchen is 30 years old and will likely be upgraded in 2-5 years, so for me this is a short-term solution.
What I did:
1. Wipe cabinets down with soapy water
2. Label cabinet doors (I used blue painters tape)
3. Remove cabinet doors
4. Remove hardware and hinges
5. Brush or roll 2+ coats, to your liking
6. Let dry, cure 30 days
7. Put doors back on
8. Add hardware
