The job here
Cabinet refinishing in Madisonville has the longest cure times of anywhere we work, and it is worth knowing that before the schedule is agreed, not after.

A finish needs real time to harden between thin coats. On a lot with the Tchefuncte in front of it and heavy canopy over it, the air holds moisture for more of the year and dries out more slowly than it does inland, so that hardening takes longer here than the same job would in Hammond.
Doors handed back before they are hard chip at every edge within months. So we build the time in and say plainly what it means for the date, because the alternative is a kitchen that has to be done twice.
The method is the same discipline it is everywhere. Doors and drawer fronts off and numbered, hardware off instead of being cut around, and everything degreased properly, because no primer made will stick through the cooking oil a kitchen deposits over its lifetime.
Camp kitchens are their own case. They are often unconditioned for stretches of the year, which affects both what goes on the doors and how the finish behaves afterwards, and it is worth mentioning when you call.
Hinges get checked while everything is apart. A door that has dropped will not sit square in its opening however well the face of it has been finished, and on a waterfront property where the whole building moves a little with the seasons that is worth looking at properly instead of assuming.
Boxes are done in place with the room contained. You lose the cupboards, not the room.

Why the quote says two
Painting a house here is a different job from painting one in a dry climate. Humidity changes how long a coat stays open, and it decides how much film you need on a wall before the weather starts taking it back.

First coat
The first coat is doing a different job from the second. It bonds to what is underneath and it tells us where the substrate is still drinking, which is information you only get once paint is actually on the wall.

Second coat
The second coat is where the color goes true and the film reaches the thickness printed on the tin. One coat over a sound wall looks fine from the driveway and looks thin on the north side by spring.
