I did it! Finally! I have been flip-flopping back and forth over glazing the sink cabinet in our downstairs powder room. I really wanted to do it, but was afraid how it would turn out and if it would look good or not. I know it is just paint, and the cabinet could be re-painted, but the original paint was applied with a professional sprayer, so the finish would not be the same if I had to repaint it.
Anyway, here is a photo of the Glazed Cabinet. I couldn’t get a direct shot from the front, because the space was too narrow. I am still not sure how I feel about the result, it didn’t come out quite as good as I imagined it, but it is been growing on me.
I bought this paint several months ago and had been putting the project off. I think I heard that Home depot quit carrying Ralph Lauren paint, but I bet that they kept the formulations of this glaze and could reproduce it.
I did not get a picture of the cabinet before I painted it, but this is a shot of our other bathroom cabinet:
I have not decided whether to glaze it or not. Should I?

I liked it better clean white!! But I love the tips for glazing. I have a piece of furniture that I want to do it with and I hope it turns out just like your bathroom cabinets!

These cabinets are "paint grade": wood boxes with MDF doors. I did not notice any difference in the way the different materials took the paint.

Yes. Glaze! Question–are these thermofoil builder cabinets or are they painted wood cabinets? I'm redoing my kitchen cabitnets complete unexpect gut due to water damage….I opted for white thermofoil in stock cabinets. I wanted antique white, but had to buy everything ASAP so I could have a functioning kitchen. . .I'm thinking of glazing them to customize their stark white appearance.
