ok, I'm remodeling Lil G's bathroom, stripped all the wall paper
, prepped and painted the walls (red red wine color w/ sand trim.... very bold actually), new lights and fixtures are IKEA brushed nickel, rialto beige tile replaces the carpeting...... but we have wood finish cabinets that just won't look right, looks like a light oak stain on them.......... I bought some deglosser and was going to lightly sand them before painting them in the trim color......
so, my questions would be.......
is that enough prep work to get the paint to stick????..... and would a heavy coat of paint look best or more of a whitewash effect with the grain showing thru more???
