DIY Kitchen Island Makeover | Benjamin Moore Kendall Charcoal
Вставка
- Опубліковано 28 сер 2024
- This is my DIY Kitchen makeover. I've never painted a kitchen before. I started off painting my island first to learn the process before moving onto the main kitchen. I hope this video can help others, give encouragement and insight. I'm far from being a professional painter, just a regular guy doing regular things.
Here are some of the products I used to redo my Kitchen Island:
Paint: Benjamin Moore Advance Satin - Kendall Charcoal HC-166
Primer: Bulleyes 1-2-3
Sandpaper: 120 Grit, 220 Grit, 320 Grit
Sprayer: Wagner Flexico 3000
Overall, I'm pleased with how the island turned out. The Wagner airless sprayer was definitely a time saver. The detail finisher attachment did a good job. There is a very slight texture on the finish but the surface did came out great compare to a roller or a brush. It was learning process/trial and error using an airless sprayer for the first time but the end result exceeded my expectation. For the main kitchen, I'll probably use a different sprayer, maybe a Graco, that can switch out the tips, example 209 or 210 FF (fine finish) spray tips. I want to test it out and try to get it as smooth as possible for a DIYer.
Total cost was around $315 which includes the paint, primer, sprayer, sandpaper, plastic cloth, microfiber cloth, goof off(degreaser), brush and roller.
Total hours was around 28 hrs of work in a span of 5 days:
Day 1: Degreased, cleaned and sanded. Removed all the cabinet door, drawers. Prepped the kitchen and garage with plastic drop cloth for primer/paint.
Day 2: Primer the kitchen island, cabinets and drawer. Waited for it to dry and sanded with 220/320 grit sandpaper.
You can probably do Day 1 and 2 together to save a whole day. I wanted to take my time and take it slowly.
Day 3: First and Second coat of paint went on the island and the backside of the cabinet/drawers.
Day 4: First and Second coat of paint went on the frontside of the cabinet/drawers.
Day 5: Installed everything
I honestly think it turned out better than expected. I hope to do the rest of the kitchen in white. Thanks for watching. Please smash the like button if this was helpful and comment below, I would love to hear your thoughts.

What a nice transformation love seeing these kind of videos. That white stuff did not want to go away lol
Beautiful job! I think your kitchen will look very nice when you're finished.
Thank you! The white cabinets and gray island goes very well together, happy with how it all turned out. Thanks for watching! 👍
Lol the Will Ferrel clip was hilarious. I never know what to do with my hands 😂
Hahaha, I still don't know what to do with them lol. Appreciate you checking out my DIY vid 👐
Came out great, I saw on IG but UA-cam didn’t notify me of the upload
No worries. It definitely was a lot of work and learned a lot. But I can live without seeing a paint for awhile 😁
and he's back! 😀
Haha let's hope for the long term 😉
It turned out soo good!!
Thank you so much! I appreciate it 👍
Very nice job!
Thank you! Appreciate you checking out the video! 👍
Liking the finished island and at only the material cost of $315....great deal and job! 😀👍
Thanks! Appreciate it. The cost saving is definitely worth the time and effort 👍
What’s good Charlie! This came out great man!
Yo Anthony! Appreciate it! I ain't gonna lie, as my first time painting kitchen cabs, I was a little nervous 😅 Hopefully this video helps others get the courage to DIY. I just bought a new sprayer for the main cabs, 🤞 those come out even smoother 🤞 I post the progress on my Instagram.
This looks awesome! Did you prime the cabinet doors/drawers with the 123 and roller as well?
Thank you! Yea used a roller with 123 primer and then sprayed the paint.
Great job man!
Thanks! Appreciate it 👍
@@SpendingJar did you end up doing the kitchen cabinets too?
@@Popcornbeetle yes, I painted the kitchen cabinet white to go with the theme. I didn't make a video on it but if you check out my Instagram @spendingjar I have pictures on there. Also did my fireplace which is also on my IG.
Wish I made video on both 🤦♂️
@@SpendingJar turned out great! Looking at a new home that needs just the island and fireplace make over. This gives me confidence!
@@Popcornbeetle congrats on the new home! Best of luck on the makeover 💯
Love following your progress on instagram and this too. Are you switching your channel to more vlog or home improvement?
Did you do two coats or three? Did you primer and sand between coats ? Thanks
@mindyabiznesspeople hey! It's been a long time since I did this project, but if I remember correctly; I did primer, sanded, and applied two coats. Hope this helps.
I just recently used the same paint code for my office and it turned out great. It's a great color.
It looks vey neat and clean! I am thinking about doing so, but Is the paint smell strong after finish?
Hi and thank you! It definitely takes a lot of prep but the end result was worth it. It has its usual paint smell but not too strong. It was bearable, no dizziness or headache. I did of course, left the kitchen windows open for a few days.
Hope this helps and thanks again for checking out my video.
Do you need to use a certain kind of paint?
Hi I was wondering what’s the measurements of your kitchen island please
Hi and thanks for watching my video. My island is 78 1/2 long, 38 1/2 wide (measured at the counter top) and 36 inches high. I hope this helps 👍
Did this consume a lot of paint? Looking to paint some cabinets hopefully a gallon will do
Hey thanks for checking out my video. I believed I used 2 gallons of paint. It depends on how big your cabinets are and if you plan to spray or roll. I was spraying so it uses more paint than rolling. Hope this helps.
@@SpendingJar thanks for the reply, did you think the paint or just use from can ? I’m thinking of the graco vsp or the Wagner sprayer
@@inkman411 I didn't want to paint by brush or roll since I wanted the smoothest looking surface as possible. I decided to spray from the beginning using the Wagner in the video. I ended up upgrading to a graco magnum X5 with graco FFLP310 tip for the rest of the kitchen. In my humble opinion, prepping your cabinets is very important to have the best results.
@@SpendingJar thank you , yes the prep work is very important thank you for the information I will most likely go with Graco For a cleaner look
@@inkman411 awesome! Let me know how it turns out. Best of luck on it! 👍
