I presently have 1/2 m or about 2 ft of bench space which is depressing for me. I'm a bit jealous of all your cupboards & benches. Definitely a reason to buy a house.

The spray gun you recommended caused the paint to splatter and drip everywhere. I reread and saw that I didn't add any water to the paint. Can you provide some insight our guidance around how much water you added to the paint to thin?Anonymoushttps://www.blogger.com/profile/16389248900693830954noreply@blogger.comtag:blogger.com,1999:blog-669760569451633246.post-85649292614768802232014-04-17T17:37:19.302-06:002014-04-17T17:37:19.302-06:00I followed the directions on the paint can.

However, it is not very noticeable on mine, unless you look really close. I have furniture that I have brushed and you can see the brush marks. Spraying makes it very smooth and even. The more coats you put on, the less you will see the wood grain. <br /><br />Good luck, it is a lot of work, but so worth it. I would love to see your kitchen when it is done and hope you link it up to my Penny Pinching Party and leave me a comment.Jenhttps://www.blogger.com/profile/18308560277184475375noreply@blogger.comtag:blogger.com,1999:blog-669760569451633246.post-32900642673097572712013-06-25T23:28:24.789-06:002013-06-25T23:28:24.789-06:00Hi!

I am getting ready to paint my oak cabinets, and after looking at what seems like millions of before and after pictures I am a little put off by being able to see the woodgrain in other peoples pictures. Is it noticable on your cabinets? Does spraying them make the difference?
