How to paint oak cabinets FAST/EASY

What happens here

After all grain filling and sanding steps are complete and surfaces are dust-free, prepare for the topcoats. Pour the catalyzed pigmented lacquer into the spray gun, ensuring it's properly mixed. Apply the first top coat to all cabinet doors and face frames, spraying in a systematic manner to achieve even coverage. Allow sufficient drying time. After the first coat is dry, apply a second top coat, spraying in the opposite direction to ensure optimal coverage and a smooth finish. Once all coats are completely dry and cured, reassemble the cabinet doors and drawer fronts onto the cabinet boxes, using the labels created earlier for correct placement. Ensure all hardware is securely attached.

Goal: Apply two coats of catalyzed pigmented lacquer to all cabinet doors and face frames, then reassemble the cabinets once fully dry.
