    Been really wanting to upgrade our kitchen cabinets for a long time. Out of the blue my wife stumbles across milk paint. I guess it's typically used for furniture but some people have had good results doing their cabinets. So this weekend, I got motivated and started the project. No more cheap, honey oak finish, say hello to..........Seagull Gray. This shit is amazing though, covers so well.

    • We're putting an offer in on a house that has wood trim throughout that is that color. Will have it all painted white and love some examples I've seen.mg33
    • Thanks bklyn. The bottom pic is only one coat of paint. We did three and the coverage is flawless, with no brush marks.stoplying
