FAQs

Do I need to prime before painting?

No, Rust-Oleum Kitchen Cupboard Paint does not require a primer on most surfaces, saving you time and effort. However, proper surface preparation is still essential.

How many coats of paint are needed?

Two coats are recommended for optimal coverage and durability.

Can I use this paint on varnished surfaces?

Yes, this paint can be applied to varnished surfaces. Ensure the surface is clean and lightly sanded before application for best results.

How do I clean the painted surfaces?

You can clean the painted surfaces with a damp cloth. The satin finish is designed to be scrubbable and resistant to everyday stains.

Is this paint suitable for all kitchen surfaces?

The paint is suitable for wood, melamine, and laminate cupboards. Always check the manufacturer's recommendations for your specific surface before applying.

What if I want a different sheen?

Rust-Oleum Kitchen Cupboard Paint is available in a satin finish. Other finishes may be available from the manufacturer, so check the product range.

How much paint do I need?

The 750ml tin provides good coverage. The amount needed depends on the surface area of your cupboards. Use the coverage information on the tin as a guide.

What should I do if the paint sprayer clogs?

If the paint sprayer clogs, immediately stop spraying and clean the nozzle, and thin the paint according to the manufacturer's instructions. Ensure the paint is properly mixed before spraying. Dilution of 10-20% is recommended.

Troubleshooting

Paint is not adhering properly.

Ensure the surface is properly cleaned, degreased, and lightly sanded if glossy. Apply a thin first coat, and allow it to dry completely before applying the second coat. If needed, a bonding primer may also be needed for very challenging surfaces.

Paint finish is not smooth.

Use a high-quality brush or roller. Apply thin, even coats, and avoid over-brushing or over-rolling. If using a sprayer, ensure proper dilution and technique.

Paint is dripping or running.

Apply thinner coats of paint. If spraying, ensure correct nozzle settings and distance from the surface. Check the dilution ratio.

Poor coverage after two coats.

Ensure thorough stirring before application. Make sure the surface is properly prepared. Consider a third coat, or try a different application method to ensure an even coat.
