The Solution for Kitchen Cabinet Paint Problems like Peeling, Cracking and Bubbling

Kitchen cabinet paint problems like chipping, peeling, water damage, and cracks can make your entire room look unsightly and old. Before you can find solutions for these problems however, you need to find out what caused them, just in case there are other underlying issues such as a water leak or mould that need to be resolved. Here are some of the most common causes of paint problems on your cabinets and how you can find effective solutions.

What Causes Peeling Paint on Your Cabinets

 

Dirty Painting Surface

 

One of the most common causes of peeling, bubbling, or cracking paint is that the surface was not properly prepared by cleaning, sanding and removing grease and dust before painting. Dust, dirt and grime collect on walls, ceilings, and cabinets over time and fresh paint will have a difficult time sticking to the surface if it is clogged with loose particles. Painting over dirt like this will show up under the paint and lead to a messy job.

 

Wet Surface

 

Paint cannot stick to wet surfaces. If there is excess moisture on your cabinets from humidity in the environment or from leaks and/or plumbing problems, water-filled bubbles can form in the paint. This issue is often found in damp areas like the bathroom and kitchen, where condensation quickly forms and presents itself on surfaces.

 

Forgetting to Sand and Prime

 

Sanding and priming are two important steps before painting kitchen cabinets. Any imperfections, dirt, and visible grains need to be smoothed out, so the paint appears vibrant and uniform across the entire surface. Primer is also an important step. It covers up any minor imperfections and creates a smooth surface that paint can easily adhere to. It also makes your paint project last much longer!
