What happens here
Before final installation, apply the desired finishes to your assembled wood components. Paint the cabinet carcasses white (as seen in the video), ensuring even coverage and a smooth finish. For the floating shelves and countertop, apply a wood stain and protective topcoat to achieve the desired wood-toned appearance and durability. Allow all finishes to dry and cure completely according to product instructions.
Goal: Paint the cabinet carcasses and stain/finish the shelves and countertop.
