I have a entire kitchen.. 27 doors and 5 drawers of nothing but the flat faced honey oak cabinets. Exactly like what youve refinished. Haha Ive been stuck on stupid with these cabinets for 10 yrs. As I like the timeless warm tones of wood vs going with a color. This is such a informative video! I cant thank you enough!!

@@shellbells339 Yes, sand and sand and sand! Please test a swatch of your cabinet if you aren't going with a slight color stain. Just want to make sure you don't end up with something too golden! And please be sure to use the water base "poly" because it truly dries clear.

This is one of the first good tutorials for what to do with my kitchen oak cabinets. I love the wood look, but want to bring my kitchen out of the 90's without painting an opaque color over the beautiful oak wood. You have inspired me. Crossing fingers I'll get started next spring when I can sand outside in the garage, and not indoors.

@juliaschirmers278 Thank you for saying so! I am so happy these videos have been inspirational to so many people! If you have some free space in your garage I suppose you could sand there as well. The dust does travel a few feet though.

So I have the end caps on my cabinets that are laminate. Would you just go ahead and try and match the cabinet stain to a paint and paint the end caps?

That is tough. I think you could also replace them with or add on top a thin veneer of wood that could be stained to match the cabinets.

Looks like it came out kind of splotchy.
