I'm going to be putting a refrigerator surround up for the LOML with a top cabinet and long side cabinet. Cabinets are going to be painted white to match the existing cabinets which are not great (probably not even good) quality but they are there and might get replaced somewhere in the future. (Yeah right! the list gets longer every day ). For all of you who have tackled the painted kitchen cabinets, what have you used for the carcasses of the cabinets. The existing cabinets are 1/2" something (not MDF). I was looking at both birch and oak faced plywood at the local Borg and Lowes. Neither seemed to have A/A sanded pine (best I could find at Lowes was B/C - B sanded). While I don't mind the cost of the oak and birch faced plywood , I was wondering if I am missing something. Not looking to do MDF, especially on the long cabinet. The face frame will be a suitable aspen or decent select pine. Thanks
