Kitchen Cabinet Respray to a Factory Finish in Caledon

1. 1

   1. Assessment and removal

   We catalogued and photographed every component, labelling doors, drawers and frames for exact reassembly. Soft‑close hinges and original hardware were removed and bagged; the carcasses stayed in situ where possible to shorten client disruption.

   2. Precision prep and repair

   All components were cleaned with a trisodium phosphate substitute, deglossed, and abraded with 180–240 grit to give modern coatings a mechanical key. We repaired veneer lifting and filled edge chips with a solvent‑resistant wood filler, then sanded and final‑tack‑clothed to remove dust before priming.

   3. Controlled off‑site spray finishing

   To achieve a true factory finish we transported doors and drawer fronts to our temperature‑controlled spray studio. A two‑coat water‑borne acrylic primer was applied by HVLP spray, followed by wet‑sanding; final topcoats were low‑VOC conversion varnish for cross‑linked hardness and chemical resistance, applied in two thin coats to avoid sagging.

   4. On‑site reassembly and adjustment

   After a full cure cycle we returned to the Caledon home for reassembly, fitting doors, adjusting gaps to original specifications, and reinstalling hardware. We matched modern gaskets for soft‑close drawers and verified door reveal and alignment across the run.

   5. Quality checks and handover documentation

   A final inspection included adhesion test points, sheen uniformity checks and a walkthrough with the homeowners. We provided a care sheet detailing recommended cleaning agents, cure timelines and our finish warranty parameters.
