Cabinet door dilemma: spray them hanging… or lay them flat 🎨🪵 Lets settle this. #DIYProjects

What happens here

Position smaller cabinet components, such as drawer fronts or trim pieces, on a dedicated paint stand for horizontal spraying. Apply multiple thin, even coats of paint (shown in a darker color in the video) using the HVLP spray gun, ensuring thorough coverage on all surfaces. Allow each coat to dry to tackiness before applying the next, preventing solvent entrapment and promoting a smooth finish.

Goal: Achieve a consistent, smooth finish on horizontally placed cabinet parts.
