Walking you through our process - STEP THREE
Priming.
YOU CANNOT BUILD A HOUSE WITHOUT A PROPER FOUNDATION
When painting over woods like oak and maple, it's not enough for your primer to have strong adhesion. adhesion is critical.
But, wood has natural oils, called tannins, that will be drawn up to the surface and pe*****te each layer of paint, creating a blotchy, speckled mess unless they are properly sealed. This primer will keep those tannins buried in the wood, just where we want them.
As for cabinets with a solid lacquer or therma-foil finish, we use just the right primer for them too.
