How to get a factory paint finish on kitchen cupboards?

Hi , I am wanting to paint my kitchen cabinets. I have previously painted my cabinets with Dulux renovation range using a roller . The finish product turned out terrible. I am just wondering how cabinet makers paint their cupboards and get a factory finish . There are no imperfections whatsoever it looks like it hasn’t even been painted . My cupboards you can tell that there is a layer of paint and that they have been painted but with factory finish you just cannot tell it’s that perfect . For example kaboodle how do they get their cabinets perfectly painted like a factory finish . I am wanting to repaint them and I want to get a factory finish . Does anybody know what cabinet makers use to make their paint finish so perfect . Thanks

Thanks for that . What would I use to dilute the primer and the actual paint?

Hello @kayoparata 

 

Depending on the paint that you use each product has a specific rule printed at the back of the container. It will specifically tell you if the product needs to be diluted or what percent it can be diluted to. When you've decided what product to use, have a quick look at the back of the tin for more details.

 

For example, some water-based paints can be diluted with more water, some oil-based paints need paint thinner.

 

If you need further assistance, please let us know.
