What is the most durable finish for kitchen cabinets?

How to Prevent a Painted Kitchen Cabinet From Chipping

3. Sand entire doors and cabinet boxes if the paint chipping is widespread.

When painting your cabinets, you don't have to paint the interior of the cabinets themselves.

However, you will want to paint both sides of the cabinet doors.

The higher the gloss, the more durable the paint. Although satin paints are scrubbable and stain-resistant, semigloss paint wipes clean and withstands more abuse. Easy maintenance makes it a better choice for kitchens that get heavy use.

Should you put a top coat on painted cabinets?

I do not always use a top coat and some paints are perfectly fine without it. For high traffic pieces (any table top, kitchen cabinets, kids furniture), I definitely recommend a top coat to provide the best protection to your painted furniture. For almost all dark matte paints, I like to use a poly or wax as well.

Should you paint the inside of cabinets?

You can paint the cabinet doors on or off the cabinet, but removing them eases painting. Remove the hardware from both the cabinet and the doors. If you prefer to leave the doors on, you probably won't need to paint the interior of the cabinets. If you do paint the interiors, work from the inside out.
