It's total crap, just like their countertop paint. I personally tested it because my friend at HD mentioned it & I wanted to see what it would do. It's difficult to work with, and the results are far less than spectacular. Same with their countertop paint that just peels right off.

There are primers and spray paints specifically for laminate/plastic now so you might have better results with those. Laminate is tough to refinish because paint doesn't stick well. A good sanding to get the gloss off will help too.

I totally understand your concern. We all want to be on alert for spam and there's been quite a lot of it lately. Just please be careful not to insult legit users.

Thank you, live_wire_oak and steff_1, for your responses. marcydc, I have no idea what you are even talking about. I wasn't aware that my question was offensive. I am not affiliated with that product or company. I was honestly just interested to find out anyone here had any experience using it. I can assure you that I didn't create this username to pretend to be someone else. Though I haven't been on GW in a while, I used to be very active on some of the gardening forums.

I purchased the Rustoleum Cabinet Transformations today. I am curious if anyone has personal pics from using this product. I loved the pic of the Cabernet color but am going to use the Linen for my kitchen. I know it's gonna be alot of work but I don't wanna spend alot on my oak cabinets I just need to tone down the heavy graining.

I have decided to go with Cabernet afterall. I just can't get away from loving the rich color. I sure hope someone posts some pics. I can't start until my husband gets my new faucet installed. I have to begin by washing the cabinets.

I don't know why some folks assumed that this was a product placement question...I searched this just to see if anyone had used it yet. I realize that THS gets spammed...but I thought it was a reasonable question. And it didn't read as spam to me.

I'm going to see if there are any other threads on this stuff...

Click link below for pics of this makeover. This transformation was taken from 1992 Builders Grade Oak Cabinets which came with our home to Cabernet colored cabinets using the new Rustoleum Cabinet Transformation products sold at L*we's and HD. The cost was about $160.00 for 2 kits. I did have a few things left over but paint and antiquing was not one of them. The process is to wash then degloss your cabinets after removing hardware. Then use basecoat (they said 2 coats) I used 4 for a great finish. Then use antiquing glaze and lastly you seal with a (sweet milk) colored finish coat which dries to a clear coat. Careful not to get this too heavy or it will dry alittle milky. I can not atest to the durabilty as I just completed this. But it turned out lovely. We also cut out the wooden panels of our small doors and had glass inserted. The cost for this was $107.00 for 4 doors. The glass company used silicon for installation. I am painting the inside a creamy color to let the light show through. Also, our backsplash has not been installed yet. It is Jeffery Court (Fire & Ice) quartzite and glass tile. I am experimenting with Pebeo Vitrea paint to make my own garnet color glass tiles which you bake in the oven for permanence. There is no toxicity in this product. Our granite is black pearl. It is becoming hard to find at this time. I have stainless and black appliances. Although I am only part way through with this kitchen, I thought I should post pics. There are no personal makeovers that I could find online when I began this project in January 2011. I hope this is of some help to someone. I did this transformation all on my own except for the installation of glass in the doors and the change in cabinet door hinges which required a drill press and new part for drilling new holes in the doors. Our hinges were outdated and not made in brushed nickel or pewter. I am a stay at home wife. If you have some time and don't mind the mess for awhile it's a great time consuming & money saving project. I could have done this much sooner but between getting kids from school, taking loved ones to the Dr. etc. etc. I worked hit and miss until finished.
