Graco NAR311 would be the perfect tip for enamel for cabinets and baseboards. I sprayed most of my cabinets w/ enamel (eggshell) came out beautifully. Very useful for small jobs such as wood works and cabinetry. Good Luck!

Use a gloss black primer, and then paint *extremely* light coats of chrome, building it up slowly. I find that 2-3 coats works best, and it dries very quickly in between coats. I have looked everywhere for a "manual" or directions, but have not found one, so the info I am giving you is based on my own tests. I tried it many different ways, and only gloss black with light chrome coats gave me the high polish results I was looking for. It should also be sealed if it's going to be even lightly handled, and again the sealing should be done with a very light hand. I would recommend testing on plastic spoons to make sure you have things right before you go to model, as stripping this stuff is a real PITA. Happy Painting!

This is one of my favorite tools In my collection.Be aware of significant overspray so tape them off well and maintain a consistent speed and distance. If cabinets are not yet mounted any tip would work but if they are installed, go with the finest tip to minimize overspray. Since the cabinets are likely very smooth watch for any drips to form and roll or brush them off.

Sorry I used mine on an enamel tub. Chip was size of a ladybug. Cleaned surface with alcohol, let dry and put a couple of coats letting it dry in between coats. Worked very well for enamel.

Howard's Clean-A-Finish may be used on white kitchen cabinets, be they painted metal or wood. It is a good choice for use in the kitchen as it removes grease as well and grim without scrubbing. Follow the directions when it states to rub (not scrub) the surface in a circular motion. Do not scrub too vigorously or you may remove some of the top finish on older, weathered items. Let the product do the work.

You can use stain, but it has to be cleaned as any solvent based sprayer. These are normally used for laytexez, but enamels are not a problem. Check the Titan web site. It's full of information too.

I think no matter what product you use to clean the cabinets, you need to sand and prime.....sorry, I know that takes more time:(. Chalk paint may be worth considering.

Just get a standard-size bottle variety pack of military flats paints, and a decent enough variety pack of brushes, too. Use Testor's glue -- it's great for moderate builders -- it's a little more forgiving.

As a metals specalist, enamel is not in the realm of my expertise, but I believe on the tube it does not reccomend using on painted surfaces. Enamel is a baked on finish, so if you purchase the polish, I would suggest trying it on a small section of a generally unseen area to test the effectivness. But I can tell you that you will find many more uses as this is a fine polish that requires very little effort.

Lightly sand it and just wipe clean. That's what I did. My cabinets are amazing!

Polycarbonate Spray Paint. Many brands such as Tamiya, Pactra are good options. I personally prefer Tamiya.

I built kitchen cabinets, book cases and various other furniture, and I had used this sprayer straightly to satin and varnish those furniture. I only use oil base paint with this sprayer and for water base paint, I use my Graco paint sprayer. I set the spray volume to close to minimum to avoid over spray. One additional note, for oil base satin, always wipe out excess satin or even wipe off the entire surface to make the spray even.

I have used Oz Cream Polish for years on all types of finishes with great success. Contact the folks who refaced the cabinets.

I am using the polish on an indoor cast iron stove, but if it gets moisture, it still rusts. I think it is more intended to improve the appearance of the stove. Maybe a high temperature paint would be more suitable for outdoors.

I have used Wenol polish on my pots and pans and have had great results; however, they do not have a painted baked on enamel finish. This polish works wonders on silver, both present day and old tarnish pieces. The secret to maintaining a long polish is a clean soft cloth and rubbing small areas at a time (after it dries) until the cloth no longer shows any black - your object will shine for months. Also, for your enamel cookware have you tried using the soap from an SOS pad but using a non-abrasive cloth/sponge?

Go to Home Depot and ask about the type of paint... I know certain brushes fall apart so be carefull

I have used oil based paint and it worked great. Make sure you clean it well afterwords.
