Just prime and then paint with gloss/semi gloss ultra white paint.

Make sure to caulk all of the trim before you paint, will make for a nice seamless line.

Depends on how good the finish is on it now, if it is a hard poly, just rough it up some and the primer will stick to it fine.

Cabinets are done and ready to be installed, outside should be completely closed in by the end of today. I normally refuse to work on a Sunday after church, but the ox is in the ditch, and things have to get done. Here are pics from yesterday.

Garage and back


Front Door with stain applied


Pantry Cabinet


Lazy Susan (that I put together with no directions)
