If you’ve ever stood in a newly renovated kitchen and admired the silky-smooth cabinets, chances are they were spray, not brushed or rolled. At Number1 Painting, we recently completed a cabinet respray in a Melbourne home that left the owners speechless. Want to know how we did it? Let’s walk you through the process.
Why Spray Painting Is a Game-Changer!?
Unlike traditional methods, spray painting delivers a factory-finish look,no brush strokes, no roller marks, just a buttery smooth surface. It’s perfect for modern kitchens, especially when you want a fresh, clean vibe without replacing your cabinets entirely.
Our Step-by-Step Process
1. Surface Preparation: We start by removing doors and hardware, cleaning off grease and grime, and sanding thoroughly. This is the foundation for smoothness.
2. Priming: We apply a high-adhesion primer using a spray gun. This step evens out the surface and ensures strong paint grip.
3. Spraying the Topcoat: Using professional HVLP sprayers, we apply two to three thin coats of premium cabinet paint (like Dulux 2Pac or Natural White). Each layer is allowed to dry and lightly sanded before the next.
4. Finishing Touches: Once fully dry, we reinstall the doors and polish the finish, leaving the kitchen glowing.

How This Fits Into the Bigger Picture
Cabinet spraying is just one piece of what we do. Whether you’re planning to paint your walls, ceilings, or need a full kitchen refresh, everything connects. In our previous article about Choosing the Right White for Your Kitchen, we discussed how colour affects mood and brightness, something you’ll notice even more with professionally sprayed cabinets.
