John Shearer This is a typical Seattle kitchen cabinet update. The owners had contracted Shearer Painting to paint their existing oak kitchen cabinets with an update off-white paint scheme. This process includes the de-greasing, sanding, priming, and painting of the wood cabinet boxes, drawers, and pantry doors. In addition to painting, Shearer was asked to replace the existing plastic hardware with polished brass hardware; this included removing existing pulls, filling holes, and symmetrically mounting the new hardware.
