The Project: Modernising a Billericay Kitchen
The brief for this Essex home was to take a pale, dated kitchen space and transform it into a striking, contemporary masterpiece. Because kitchen cabinetry has to withstand heavy daily wear, grease, and frequent cleaning, we knew a standard paint job wouldn’t cut it.
To deliver a pristine look that would stay flawless for years, we turned to a full, professional-grade Tikkurila coatings system.
The Manufacturer-Approved Process
Achieving an industry-featured finish requires patience, expertise, and the right materials. Here is exactly how we executed this transformation:
- Meticulous Preparation: We fully degreased, washed, and meticulously sanded all the cabinet doors and framework to ensure a perfectly smooth surface.
- The Ultimate Foundation: We applied Tikkurila Otex Adhesion Primer. This solvent-based primer creates an unbreakable bond on tricky, smooth wooden surfaces, ensuring the topcoat will never flake or peel.
- The Hard-Wearing Finish: For the final look, we applied Tikkurila Helmi 30. This water-borne, semi-matt finish cures to a rock-hard, scrub-resistant film. It provides a beautiful, soft sheen that can easily be wiped clean of everyday kitchen spills.
The client requested a custom colour-match, which Tikkurila’s advanced tinting system achieved perfectly, giving the space a completely bespoke, luxury feel.
