Refresh an old cabinet

Step 1
Start by removing the handles of the cabinet and give the cabinet a good sand with a medium grit sandpaper. Wipe away the dust with a rag or cloth.

Step 2
Use a small microfibre roller to apply one coat of Resene Quick Dry. Once this is dry, give it a light sand with a fine grit sandpaper and wipe away the dust with a cloth.

Step 3
For the main body of the cabinet, paint on two coats of Resene Rock Spray, allowing the first coat to dry before applying the second coat. For the top surface of the cabinet, apply two coats of Resene Strikemaster.

Step 4
Measure and use some painters tape to tape off sections for the third colour. Fleur ignored the lines of the trim and panelling of the cabinet and made rectangles with tape and painted them with two coats of Resene Roxy.

Step 5
To finish, use tape again to make a second, smaller rectangle shape and paint this with two coats of Resene Red Berry. Fleur extended this up on to the top of the cabinet.
