It's almost springtime so planning some DIY projects in the flat. We just did a massive clear out of stuff in our kitchen. Whilst doing so we realised the cupboards are proper grim to look at and re looking very tired.
I've googled load of videos about repainting with little to no prep. Most seem to say use a primer then can use paint. I have some cover stain Zinsser primer left over from a water leak a few years ago in the hallway but not sure it will be enough and not the right thing for the job anyway.
Most videos online are in the USA and so have products I can't find here. Then I found a link to a UK based supplier and its' called ESP Primer. https://www.owatroldirect.co.uk/product/esp-easy-surface-prep/
Some of the cupbords have some slight chips in the melamine* or whatever is on the cupboards already, definitely paint and not bare laminate.
Not looking for a super pro finish but just want to do enough to make it feel fresh in there and able to change handle etc to give it a different look.
Anyone done this recently and has some feedback?
