Thinking about giving your kitchen a fresh new look without splashing out on a full renovation? Laminated kitchen doors are a common choice for their affordability and durability—but over time, even the sturdiest surfaces can start to feel dated.

Good news: you can spray paint laminated kitchen doors, and it’s one of the most affordable ways to modernise your kitchen. At J&D Sprayers & Makeovers, we specialise in professional cabinet spraying across Scotland, turning tired laminate into sleek, showroom-ready finishes.

Can You Spray Paint Laminate Kitchen Doors?

Absolutely. With the right preparation and products, spray painting laminate is a smart and long-lasting solution. That said, laminate is non-porous and naturally resistant to paint—so technique is everything. A rushed or poorly prepared job won’t last.

Step-by-Step: How to Spray Paint Laminate Kitchen Doors

1. Surface Prep is Crucial

To get professional-level adhesion, every door must be:

• Thoroughly cleaned with a degreaser

• Lightly sanded using fine-grit sandpaper

• Wiped clean of any dust or debris

Skipping this stage means your paint may peel, flake, or bubble down the line.

2. Use the Right Primer

Laminate requires a specialist bonding primer to ensure the topcoat sticks properly. Don’t use regular wall or furniture primers—they simply won’t last on laminate surfaces.

3. Choose Professional-Grade Paint

Not all spray paints are created equal. For laminate, we use high-performance paints that are specifically designed for kitchen cabinets. These paints offer better durability, chip resistance, and an even, smooth finish.

4. Technique Matters

Apply multiple thin coats rather than one heavy coat to avoid drips. Each coat should be allowed to dry thoroughly before applying the next. Ideal drying conditions in Scotland can vary, so ensure your workspace is well-ventilated and free from moisture.

5. Let It Cure

Once painted, the doors should be left to cure fully before rehanging. This step ensures long-term durability and a flawless finish.
