Cabinet Refacing IdeasFebruary 15th, 2010Before you go looking for cabinet refacing companies just read through this very informative write-up. I will quickly walk you trough very important fundamentals and provide you with something to think about as you make plan to redo your kitchen. As you search through the web you will come across a number of people claiming to be experts on this subject matter but mixing all that different advise can lead to a disastrous output. Let me quickly walk you through the following key points. Defining Refacing Kitchen Cabinets This is a way of making old kitchen cabinets to look new by adding a new coating such as laminate, veneer or thermofoil. In most occasion you may just have to replace the drawer fronts and doors only. Compared to kitchen remodeling, this is much faster to complete. This is probably the cheapest way to own new cabinets as compared to buying new ones. All in all then, this is probably the most convenient way, coupled with affordability and efficiency, of making your cabinets to look new. Let us briefly look at some of the different coating that is used Using Laminate Laminate is primarily made of plastic film or thin sheet formed from resins such as polyethylene and polypropylene. Although it is cheaperbut it is most vulnerable to wear and tear. However, it works well in heat oil resistance and can seal heat perfectly. The Thermofoil Material This is the latest offering in cabinetry. It is basically a new wood-like refacing material. Others call it RTF or Vinyl it comes as quite a thick vinyl film, which is bonded tightly on a warp-resistant engineered wood core. Wood veneer This is a thin slice of wood that is cut from a log with a slicing, peeling, or sawing machine. This is best for giving the wood a nice grain. There are many varieties of this feature. Ideally I recommend that you consult an export before making any decision on these. Tags: News Articles |
