This is Chris, the Idaho painter. In this video, we're going to show you how we go about painting cabinet doors and shelves. We got a simple system of using cup hook cup hooks and hangers to spray these things so we can spray all sides, top and bottom, and everything without having to set them down on anything. It's a simple little system. So, stay tuned to watch how we do this. So, here's one of the doors right here. And I got these little cup hooks that we've already installed right here. Hopefully, you can see that. And the process is this is a door that's actually this one came off a lower cabinet right here. And so you're going to remove the cabinet door and you're going to decide what side or where you're actually going to put those cup hooks cuz you got to just you got to drill two little holes to screw them into.

And when you unscrew these things, these holes on the bottom, nobody could actually ever see these things. So now, if you had an upper door, a higher door, like a bigger cabinet door, you could probably see the bottom of it. So you wouldn't want to do your holes in the bottom. You'd want to do it in the top. Now, I have asked as people ask me, do you actually go back and fill them and touch them up? And yeah, we have a on on occasion gone back filled them. All we do is just put some spackle in them and touch them up. And it's simple to touch up. But you really don't have to do that because you can actually never see it on these door on the majority of your doors. But if you can see those holes, they're actually really easy just to put a little piece of spackle on them and then take a little brush with your lacquer and touch them up. So, here's this door.
