Cabinet Paint (92 items found)

A fresh coat of paint can give your space new life, whether it’s the kitchen cabinetry, living room trim or bedroom doors. From bold and bright colors that make a statement to subtle neutrals that compliment any decor style, Ace Hardware has cabinet, door and trim paint that’ll help you achieve the look you're after.

What Kind of Paint Should You Use on Cabinets?

Manufacturers produce paints for specific applications. For example, the interior paint you use for your living room walls might not be suitable for other surfaces in your home. For example:

• Ceiling paint tends to be thicker to reduce the risk of drips and splashes
• Wall paint has a lower viscosity that makes it easier to brush on
• Furniture and craft paints are specially formulated to adhere to surfaces other than walls, such as metal and wood

Like other types of paint, cabinet, door and trim paint have unique formulations. Some options, like an all-in-one cabinet paint, combine primer and paint for faster application. Others have protective enamel paint formulas or special ingredients that allow the paint to resist fading and scratching. The extra durability of cabinet enamel paint helps the finish withstand the effects of frequent opening and closing. These products can also hold up to scuffs and scrapes when used as trim paint on baseboards and similar areas.

Is Door and Trim Paint the Same as Cabinet Paint?

Door and trim paint is specially designed to provide a durable and smooth enamel finish on doors and trim, withstanding frequent contact and wear. Ace offers protective enamel paints that are designed for cabinets, doors and trim, but you can also find door and trim specific paint. Find paint rollers, brushes and other paint supplies for easy application.

How to Choose Paint for Interior Cabinets and Doors

To choose the best door, cabinet and trim paint for your needs, consider the following:

• Blendability: Some cabinet paint products contain additives that enhance blending, making brushstrokes less visible. These formulas are ideal for those who want a smooth finish.
• Coverage: Coverage levels for door and trim paint vary. Lower-coverage options may require additional coats to achieve your desired results.
• Self-leveling: Certain cabinet and door paints are self-leveling, becoming smoother as they dry. They work well on detailed molding but may cover the wood grain. If you want the wood texture visible, high self-leveling paint may not be the best choice.
• Care: For cabinetry and trim that often gets splattered, choose paints that can be scrubbed once cured to simplify cleaning.
• Moisture-resistance: For durability, select moisture-resistant cabinet paint for humid areas like bathrooms.
• Color: Choose a color that coordinates with your palette. Testing paint samples can help you find the perfect shade.
