Mid-century kitchens are charmingly quirky. They feature one-piece metal cabinets and era-trendy colors like aqua, green, pink, and yellow. While these designs were on point at the time, they can be difficult to repair and maintain 70 years later. When a homeowner needed help matching her aqua-colored metal cabinets to the existing bank, she called paint expert Mauro Henrique for help.
Where to find it?
To prep the cabinet surface, Mauro cleans the cabinets using degreasing spray cleaner [https://homedepot.sjv.io/eKJno1]. To protect the surrounding area, Mauro lays out a drop cloth [https://homedepot.sjv.io/VmROnj] onto the countertop and tapes off the edges of the cabinets with painter’s pre-taped masking film [https://homedepot.sjv.io/1roGjD].
To smooth out the texture and remove any remaining rust, Mauro and Molly sand the rusted areas of the cabinets with 220-grit sandpaper [https://homedepot.sjv.io/vN1DL3].
To prep the bare metal surface on the cabinets, Mauro and Molly apply rust-resistant primer spray [https://homedepot.sjv.io/75LXAY] for metal surfaces.
To prep the entire cabinets for painting, Mauro and Molly sand the surfaces with 800-grit sandpaper.
To paint the cabinets, Mauro uses a semi-gloss acrylic Direct to Metal (DTM) paint. To apply the paint, Mauro uses 6” foam rollers [https://homedepot.sjv.io/eKJnD1] and applies 2 coats.
All supplies used for this project can be found at most home centers.
