Why Conversion Varnish is Preferred Over Traditional Paint
Cabinet Renew can save you tens of thousands of dollars by refinishing your existing cabinets instead of you having to replace them. We will coat your existing cabinets and doors with a conversion varnish that is much more durable than paint. Here are some reasons why conversion varnish is preferred over traditional paints and stains.
- Durability & Hardness
Conversion varnish creates a much harder surface than paint, making it highly resistant to scratches, dents, and daily wear, holding up exceptionally well in high-use areas like kitchens and bathrooms.
- Moisture & Chemical Resistance
Unlike paint, conversion varnish is designed to resist moisture, household cleaners, and chemicals, so it won’t easily peel, bubble, or discolor when exposed to spills or humidity.
- Long-Lasting Finish
While painted cabinets can chip or fade over time, conversion varnish maintains its appearance for many years. It also resists yellowing better than oil-based paints.
- Professional, High-End Look
It provides a smooth, furniture-grade finish with excellent clarity that enhances wood grain (if applied over stained wood). The finish looks richer and more refined than painted surfaces.
- Fewer Coats Needed
Conversion varnish has high solids content, meaning it builds a strong protective layer with fewer coats compared to paint.
- Heat Resistance
It tolerates higher temperatures without softening or becoming sticky, which is valuable for kitchen cabinets near ovens and stoves.
