Rust-Oleum Matt Kitchen Cupboard Paint is engineered for the demands of a busy kitchen. Its formulation ensures that once dry, the Winter Grey matt finish is not only visually appealing but also highly practical.
Everyday Resilience: The paint is specifically designed to be "tough against everyday wipe downs." This means spills, splashes, and daily grime common in a kitchen can be easily cleaned without compromising the integrity or appearance of the painted surface. Use a soft, damp cloth for routine cleaning.
Surface Transformation: It excels at transforming worn or outdated melamine, wood, and gloss cupboards. For example, old laminate cupboards can be given a sleek, modern matt look, while wooden cabinets can be updated without extensive stripping.
Consistent Finish: The high-coverage property ensures that even with a light color like Winter Grey, previous cabinet colors are effectively masked, providing a uniform and professional-looking finish across all surfaces.
Aesthetic Impact: The matt finish diffuses light, which can help to hide minor imperfections on the cupboard surface and create a sophisticated, understated feel in the kitchen. The Winter Grey shade offers a versatile neutral base, complementing various kitchen decor styles.
Clean Surfaces Thoroughly: Before painting, ensure all cupboard surfaces are meticulously clean, dry, and free from grease, dirt, and loose paint. Use a degreaser for best results.
Prepare Glossy Surfaces: For existing gloss cupboards, a light sanding with fine-grit sandpaper (e.g., 180-220 grit) is recommended to create a key for the paint to adhere to. Wipe away all sanding dust.
Stir Paint: Stir the paint thoroughly before and during use to ensure consistent color and finish.
Application: Apply paint with a good quality brush or roller. Apply in thin, even coats, avoiding over-application. Info needed: [Number of coats typically required]. Allow adequate drying time between coats. Info needed: [Specific recoat time].
Ventilation: Ensure good ventilation during application and drying.
