A good quality paint brush i used this small angled trim brush. Start with the cabinet drawers and doors then proceed to the cabinet boxes.
Sanding also smooths out any rough areas or splintered wood. Lay drop cloths to protect surfaces. Make sure you aren t taping on the cabinets. A second coat of paint is always required for a smooth quality finish.
Place trim wood in an area that is safe and protected from dogs cats dust and kids so your cabinet drawers and doors can dry in peace.

Remove the hinges from the doors. This provides a much stronger bond than if you were to prime and paint directly over the surface without sanding. Sand the doors and the exterior surfaces of the cabinets. Apply tape to adjacent surfaces you are not painting.
After the primer dries sand it perfectly smooth again. Sanding is important because it removes the protective lacquer coating on cabinets to expose the bare wood for primer and paint.
