How to refresh kitchen cabinet doors?
want to refresh my kitchen, but a full renovation is too expensive and time-consuming. Is it possible to just clean up and refresh the cabinet doors? I heard there’s a specific term for this—what is it? Also, would this be expensive?

Re: kitchen door
Hello @bschin1
Welcome to the Bunnings Workshop community. It's sensational to have you join us and thanks for sharing your question about refreshing your kitchen doors.
Were you thinking of revamp, makeover, upcycle or refurbish? These are the most common words when kitchen doors are painted over. I suggest repairing the damage to your doors first. For example, the heat damaged laminate cover of your door can be stuck back using Selleys 50ml Kwik Grip Crystal Clear Contact Adhesive. The flaking section of your pantry door handle can be filled in using UNi-PRO 500g Multi Purpose Interior Filler.
I propose using the Dulux Renovation Range to revamp your kitchen doors. Please note that this paint system can be used on your benchtop and wall tiles as well.
Here are some fantastic painted kitchens our Workshop members have shared:
- Painted kitchen cabinets by @Aaina
- Kitchen cabinet makeover using paint sprayer by @nicoleherrick
- Kitchen revamp using paint by @stelz
- Painted laminate kitchen cupboards by @Ari
- Kitchen makeover using paint by @raymond265
Here is a handy step-by-step guide: How to Paint Laminate Kitchen Cabinets.
Please remember to wear personal protection such as gloves, goggles and a mask when working on your project.
If you need further assistance, please let us know.

Hi @bschin1,
Let me also extend a very warm welcome to the Bunnings Workshop community. We're look forward to seeing how you can refresh your kitchen, and what other projects we might be able to help with around your house and garden.
I wanted to add to the resources that Eric has shared that we have a terrific collection of 20 kitchens transformed with paint shared by our clever and creative community members. I'm sure you'll get plenty of inspiration from what others have achieved.
