How to Paint the Kitchen Cabinet

* Take a fine quality washable paint and smear the cabinet. Use medium to high gloss paint, as it makes the kitchen appear more vivacious.
* Place the doors of the cabinet on a flat surface in a room, where there is adequate provision for ventilation. Using a brush, paint the outer edges. For giving it a finishing touch, use a roller. Let it dry properly. It is always preferable to apply atleast two layers of paint.
