I'm refinishing new, prefab, painted kitchen cabinets. My plan is to scuff the existing coat with 220 grit, prime with Zinsser BIN, then two coats of Glidden Ultra Hide High gloss. I have small children so durability is most important.
I noticed that in some places the Zinsser is easily scratching off with a fingernail. Did I apply it too thickly on the first pass or not scuff the existing finish enough?
on side note, anyone have a good starting point as far as how much to thin the oil paint so I can spray it? I added a pint of Penetrol and the viscosity does not appear to have changed much.
