DIY Kitchen Painting Ideas for a Budget Makeover

April 30, 2019 By Julia Carlisle

Painting your house is like cooking. If you plan and organize the material, it can be easier and more exciting.

This is because the drawing does not require many things and resources to start. The new painting can make you stay fresh and pleasant.

Here are a few tips from Newline Interior Painting to do the painting as a professional and save you money.

Start by preparing the tools

You need a roller with an extension column for the wide and high wall sections. It is necessary to set a brush to paint the edges of the ceiling and the panels of the base.

It also includes stir sticks, trays, paint gloves and paint buckets in your inventory.

Quality selection

When you do your painting yourself, there is a high probability that you need to repaint it earlier than you think. The upper coating provides coverage and flexibility superior to the economic one.

High-quality paintwork may last 6 to 7 years, except in the kitchen, where it may be less due to deterioration.

Retouching old walls

If your walls are fragmented, you must have a primer and two coats of paint to obtain clear colors. Cracked areas should be corrected first with the seal and then sanded.

Determine the required paint

You can always calculate how many gallons of paint you need to paint your home. First, estimate the area of the walls and ceilings and then discard areas that do not need painting, such as doors and windows.

It can give you the rough square footage that you need to paint. A gallon of paint covers about 350 square feet.

Don’t worry about buying more than you need when buying by the gallon. It’s is definitely the greatest value. Besides, you can always use additional touch-up paint later.

Types of paint you can use

There are two types of paint you can use to paint your place of residence. One is the latex paint, a water-based coating that can be easily washed with water.

The other is the oil-based paint that needs to be removed using a thinner. Both types of paint come in non-bright, semi-glossy and bright colors.

For those who have no experience, it makes sense to use a semi-gloss latex coating because it is easy to use, cleans quickly, dries quickly and does not exude excess smoke.

The ventilation of the room is essential for all types of painting work. The use of oil-based paint requires the use of a special mask on a dry, sunny day. Oil-based paint will take a little longer to dry compared to rubber paints.

Paint your kitchen cabinets

If you are thinking about repainting your kitchen cabinets, you will be pleased to know that there are many ideas available for paint cabinets.

Before you start painting cabinets, you should take a good look at the ideas available so you can choose the right preparation for a great looking kitchen.

Painting makes your home look new and worth constantly doing.

Just make sure you do this accurately to save time, expense and hard work. Affordable painting can add a real price to your home and can make you enjoy more of the amenities it offers for many years.
