For you Cabinet Coat fans: new product coming soon from Insl-x

18 years ago

Thanks to amyzboyz3 for passing along this info! She emailed me with some questions about applying Cabinet Coat and mentioned she had emailed Insl-X inquiring about dealers and if they would be coming out with any new colors for Cabinet Coat. Here is a copy of the email amyzboyz3 received from Insl-X that she passed on to me:

"Because of the Urethane Resin in the product (the

material that give CC its hard self leveling finish)

the colors are limited to pastel colors. We do have a

new product coming out this spring that will offer

similar results to CC, but will be available in all

colors. Watch for STAINMASTER Paint. It should be

available around April. Thanks again for your

interest.

Frank"

As a huge fan of CC, I have longed for the identical product in black! :) So I'm curious to see what this new product is going to be like. (Sounds like it won't be quite as self-leveling, which is my favorite characteristic of CC.) Nothing comes up at Insl-x website yet, but after googling I found a dealer in Florida that's advertising it in their "what's new" section. (See link below).

Oh, wait, I found one more. This dealer in Maryland is advertising it. Although the can has the Insl-X logo, it appears to be somehow tied into Dupont's Stainmaster? (Both dealers tout its stain resistance, but the dealer in Maryland makes reference to it having 'the same lasting beauty as your carpet'.)

Okay, so that's only a four hour drive for me. No big deal. ;-) I can probably get Mustangs to come with me!

It would be great if they could somehow produce a barn red color.

We're definitely doing white or off-white CC in our rental unit, but I would love a barn red for at least the lower cabinets in our own kitchen.

Can't wait to see what they come up with...

Thanks for posting this, moonshadow.

Something interesting I discussed with the Miami store was the possibility of mixing the CC colors. None of those pastels appeals to me, right out of the can. But, I thought about using the gray to knock the blue or green down a bit. He said it was doable.

I still don't think I will paint my cabs though. They're such crummy quality, it hardly seems worth the effort. Maybe I should think about eventual re-sale. Or just do the bathroom vanity for fun and to get that leveling experience. Geez, I can't believe I paint for entertainment!

Does anyone know if Cabinet Coat came out with the darker colors as it was mentioned in prior posts that this was supposed to happen last spring. Can't find any additional information - Thanks. PS-emailed Stainmaster but have not as yet heard from them.
