Don't Risk Damaging Your Beautiful Painted Cabinets!
Here's a Safe and Gentle Cleaning Method.
Painting your kitchen, bathroom, or any built-in cabinets can completely transform a room! Painting existing cabinets (rather than tearing them out and replacing them) offers so many benefits: it’s less expensive, less disruptive, and offers more color choices. But if you want to keep your cabinets looking their best, you need to clean them properly.
Avoid Harsh Cleaning Products
Harsh cleaning products can damage painted cabinets – both the paint and the wood beneath it. Avoiding harsh cleaning products keeps your painted kitchen cabinets looking good and lasting longer while also keeping your family safe from volatile organic compounds (VOCs) most cleaning products emit.
Cleaning up Messes
As you prepare meals, clean up as you go. If you see something splatter on a cabinet, immediately wipe it with a damp microfiber cloth and mild dish soap. Rinse it with a clean, damp microfiber cloth, and then wipe it dry.
Regular Cleaning
A buildup of grease, grime, dust, fingerprints, etc., can wear the paint down, and lingering grease collects more dust and grime. The more you let the dirt build up, the harder it will be to remove (which can also be said for unpainted cabinets).
Avoid a buildup by regularly wiping down all of your cabinets with a microfiber cloth and mild dish soap. How often you should do that depends on how hard your kitchen is used. Be sure to click below for more details!
