This kitchenCRATE features refinished cabinets in Kelly-Moore Cannery Park in Semi-Gloss Enamel. The new creamy finish pairs perfectly with the countertops and backsplash. It’s hard to believe this transformation happened in just a few days!
But don’t just take our word on how well this job turned out. Look below for the extensive before and after pictures and the project specifications!

Day by Day Progress Timeline
Here’s how we did it:
Day 1 – The CRATE team set up plastic walls to protect the home from dust and paint overspray and protected the path from the entry door to the kitchen. The appliances were removed along with everything attached to the cabinet boxes such as the cabinet doors, drawers, hinges, pulls, magnetic strikes, felt or rubber bumper pads, etc. The doors and drawers were taken to an off-site painting booth.
Days 2 & 3– Since all the walls and the ceilings had been protected, our painters began preparing and priming the cabinets. Prepping includes caulking, setting protruding or flush nails, filling nail holes, sanding wood surfaces, and cleaning thoroughly to remove dust or oils. Once the cabinets were prepped, the priming process began. Using a high-grade primer, every inch of the cabinets were primed. This is the first (and perhaps most critical) step of creating a durable paint finish.
Day 4 – Now that the cabinets were clean, sanded, and beautifully-primed, the painters began the cabinet painting process. Two coats of Kelly-Moore Dura-poxy paint in Cannery Park were applied to the thoroughly sanded and primed kitchen cabinets. This same priming and cabinet painting process was used on the doors and drawers, which are painted off-site in a climate-controlled paint booth for the highest possible quality.
Day 5 – The transformation then hit the home stretch with the installation of the freshly-painted cabinet doors and drawers. The cabinet pulls and knobs were installed on the freshly-painted cabinet doors and drawers, the homeowner’s appliances were installed and the entire project was cleaned.
