Can you paint over pvc trim?
Hi Marcus,
Yes, you can paint over PVC trim. We recommend sanding the surface with 220 grit sandpaper to create a better profile for adhesion and then applying either BEHR Multi-Surface Primer & Sealer or BEHR Bonding Primer prior to application of Cabinet, Door & Trim Enamel.

Can the marquee line of interior paint be used on smooth/vinyl coated cabinets?
Hi Liana,
With the right surface preparation and primer application, any of the BEHR® premium interior paints, including BEHR MARQUEE® Interior Paint, can be applied to smooth or vinyl-coated cabinets. However, our BEHR PREMIUM® Cabinet, Door & Trim Enamel would be the optimal choice. We also recommend BEHR® Bonding Primer for primer application.

My kitchen cabinet doors are laminate. Can I use the Behr cabinet paint on them? If so, how should I prep them?
Hi Sally,
Yes, you can use BEHR® Cabinet, Door & Trim Enamel. To prep your cabinets:
• Clean the laminate surfaces thoroughly with a mild detergent or TSP solution to remove grease, dirt, and grime. Use a degreaser for stubborn spots. Wipe with a clean, damp cloth to remove any residue and let it dry completely.
• Lightly sand the laminate surfaces with 120-grit sandpaper to roughen the surface. Wipe off the sanding dust with a tack cloth or a damp rag.
• Apply BEHR® Bonding Primer.
• After the primer has dried for at least one hour, apply the first coat of BEHR® Cabinet, Door & Trim Enamel (Satin or Semi-Gloss).
• Let the first coat dry for at least two hours before applying a second coat.
NOTE: For optimal results, lightly sand the surface between each coat (primer and first coat of paint, and between the first and second coats of paint) with 220-grit sandpaper to smooth out any brush strokes or roller marks. Wipe away the dust with a tack cloth. This step will require each coat to dry longer than the times mentioned above.

What size Graco spray tip do you recommend for using this product on my kitchen cabinet doors?
Hi Glenn,
For this type of project, where the surface areas are small, we recommend a spray tip that delivers a smaller spray fan. It’s best to use a 311 spray tip as it will deliver a 6-inch spray fan that is perfect for cabinets and smaller doors.
