Thanks for asking this. I don't have an answer but I have the same question. I have been searching for one in my area but not finding much luck on google. Seems like I can only find refacers (who give new doors) or wall painters.

I don't know if this helps you or not, but when we built our house, it was the painter that sprayed all the trim, built-ins, etc., so I would think that any good painting company could do it for you. HTH!

I have heard about people having furniture spray-painted at auto body shops. I don't know anyone personally that has done it, though. Just have seen it mentioned in magazines.

I think it depends on what you want spray painted. Something with lots of metal yes a auto paint shop might do it depends on what it is and how much of a hurry you are to get it back. They sometimes just don't want to deal with small projects.
Something wooden I'd be calling a regular painter.
If you are feeling adventurous go to a rental store and rent the equipment and do it yourself. It's not hard. Get a practice board and give it a test try.

I have been trying for years to find someone to blast the old white paint off, and then repaint my old wicker. So far, no luck.

first: newhomnebuilder, we have old wicker with multiple layers of paint. Some coats were via a can.... the most recent with a sprayer. We bought a used one years ago. It's been handy to have. I'd be afraid a power washer would be too rough on wicker. We've simply hosed off first.
kjmama, I also had my kitchen cabs sprayed by painter. Might be tough to find one for such a small job, but if you're in need of any other painting you could ask him to include the furniture.

Sorry for the glitch!

I painted my own in a previous kitchen and after a while I got some chipping. I guess I didn't do a good enough job with either the sanding or priming. I don't want a repeat and the cabinets have a lot of recessing which means a pain to sand. Will a regular painter (not specifically a cabinet painter) do sanding like that? Or is it not necessary?

Auto body shops spray the type of paint that goes on cars and is ÃÂber heavy duty.

Has any ever heard of an auto body shop coming to someone's house and spraying the cabs on the wall?

regina.......spraying the cabinets on the wall would require the painter hang plastic and cover all surfaces in the room. The mist from spray painting covers everything!

I don't think an auto body person would be knowledgeable about painting wood. Call some painters or call a cabinet maker and ask for references.
I have an excellent painter I use and I found him by asking the Miller Paint Store for references.

A good painter, using the right paint, can do an excellent job hand painting whenever spraying isn't possible.

In my area I know several people who will do these things, but I don't know what city any of you live in. I live in Downey CA. If anyone lives around there, I can point you in the right direction.

Our regular painter guy just sprayed the fireplace. He set up a spray booth, hanging plastic from the ceiling and all around. He is also going to do the kitchen cabinets when we can afford it next year.

Our house is vacant right now. We are having painters paint all the walls and trim with spray which is a common practice. I haven't asked painter yet (waiting for a return call) but I'm not sure I want a painter without experience painting cabs to do it. I've tried calling cabinet makers and refacers to ask but they aren't helpful...probably because it's like saying "hey, instead of hiring you to build me cabs, will you tell me who else I can hire to just paint the ones I have?"

A recent issue of House Beautiful had a designer talking about auto body painting for furniture - as one of his favorite things (or something like that)

My husband is an auto body tech/manager. He has successfully painted our kitchen cabinets and a built in desk and multiple furniture items with his professional spray gun and air compressor. 15 years ago we went to a BM paint store to ask about what paint to use on our kitchen cabinets and they recommended oil based for the paint and primer. They came out beautiful. No chipping EVER. It was completely professional and looked like they had been hand dipped.

jendoeshair - thanks for sharing your experience! So it wasn't uber heavy auto paint but just regular oil paint? I have seen oil paint recommended a lot so is that the best for cabs?

jendoeshair - Really no chipping??? I just assumed all painted cabinets chipped. The prior owner had all our cabinets professionally painted and they are chipping like crazy. They were primed (because some of the chips show the primer, not the paint). Other chips go all the way to the oak. The paint is 7 years old.

Some people use cabinet coat paint.

I've had stuff done at an auto body shop. It's great for a high gloss finish. Personally, I hate sprayed kitchen cabinets as they always end up with little chips around the hinges.

I am looking for a someone to spray my patio table and 2 chairs in Vaughan
