We often get asked...what's better for cabinetry finishing, lacquer or paint ?
Waterborne lacquers offer fast dry and stack times, spray beautifully without
thinning and meet the stringest of KCMA standards for edge soak, mar resistance,
cleanability and overall durability and performance in a real kitchen.
Trim paints (even Aura or any other advanced acrylic or hybrid alkyd-acrylics
cannot meet KCMA ratings (Often finish and rate below a 2 on a scale of +5 being
the best) and are softer, less resistant and prone to chip-off and peeling.
Pencil hardness testing of latex and acrylics on cabinetry is embarrasing
to say the least and cabinets done with house paint scratch easy, stain
easy and cannot resist humidity and continuous moisture from stove
ranges etc.
We are aware there is a company in Burlington spraying cabinetry with
Aura and Benjamin Moore acrylic paint and wish to advise those considering
painting kitchen cabinets that this is a big mistake when there are far better
products available for that application. We would not want the callbacks
for latex paint on cabinetry and would hope that they eventually see that
they are being disrespectful of what clients really want, and that is a
tough long-lasting, easy to clean and mar-resistant lacquer.
Our lacquer finishes will stand the test of time and we guarantee it !
No other cabinet finishing company in the Halton region offers a 5
year warranty on finishes like ColorScapes Painting and that's why
we recently completed our 85th kitchen project in the last 6 years.!
