Painting Cabinet Door Hardware
The next step is to paint your hardware with a metal primer and a paint color that complements your cabinet colors . You can buy spray paint and primer all in one .
Just lay the hardware out on a drop cloth and spray all of the hinges and screws and allow them to dry thoroughly before flipping over and painting the other side .
The Last Step : Sealant
After all the paint is thoroughly dry on your cabinet doors , paint them with a coat of sealant like Varathane to keep the paint from chipping off .
When your clear coat is completely dry , install your new cabinet handles , reinstall your cabinet hardware , and put your cabinet doors back on .
That ’ s it your beautiful new RV cabinets are done !
