In reply to Kristy Drum. I have done it both ways. If you are concerned that the flooring installation could damage the paint job, I would do the cabinets after the floors are installed. But I don't see LVT being a big issue, so I think you could go either way.

What do you think about the order of things when painting cabinets and replacing flooring? Removing old tile to replace with LVT. Should we paint first or do floors first? Thanks for your thoughts.

In reply to Linda Beaton. BIN is tintable, but there is a limit to how dark they can make it. And no, it's not meant to be a primer and topcoat all in one. You still need to top coat it with a high quality product.

I noticed that the BIN product is tintable? Can i tint that navy and just be done?

Thanks for the great post! Do you recommend using both the aqua coat wood grain filler and the Bin Primer? Or would the aqua coat filler be sufficient by itself? Thanks!

In reply to Jamie. I use BIN shellac based primer. It sands really well and is easy to brush and roll.

Hi ya Jenny. Thanks for the great tutorial. I have a Graco Truecoat Plus II so was excited to see you mentioned that. However, I can’t use it to apply the zinnser Primer you recommended. Would I still get a smooth top coat finish using the advanced BM if I apply the zinnser Primer sealer with brush and roller? I have Oak cabinets:)) thanks

In reply to Centered in the Saddle. The BIN should be just fine. :-)
