We at JS Decor, we believe in the transformative power of paint. Recently, we had the privilege to work on A Vinyl kitchen Transformed in Longridge that was showing its age. The culprit? Peeling vinyl on the kitchen units, revealing a tired MDF base. It’s a common issue, and one that can significantly detract from the overall aesthetic of a home. However, with our expertise and a meticulous approach, we turned this kitchen around, creating a stunning space that the homeowners now adore.
The problem was clear: the vinyl wrapping on the kitchen cabinets was deteriorating, peeling away and exposing the raw MDF beneath. This not only looked unsightly but also made the surfaces difficult to clean and maintain. Rather than resorting to a costly full kitchen replacement, the homeowners opted for a professional repaint, trusting JS Decor to deliver a high-quality, durable finish.
The JS Decor Difference: Preparation is Key
Our approach to any project begins with thorough preparation, and this Longridge kitchen was no exception. We understand that a successful paint job hinges on a solid foundation.
First, we meticulously removed any remaining loose vinyl, ensuring a clean and stable surface. This step is crucial, as any lingering imperfections would inevitably show through the final paint layers. Next, we sanded the entire surface, creating a “key” for the primer to adhere to. This process roughens the surface slightly, allowing the primer to grip firmly and create a strong bond.
MDF, being a porous material, requires a specialised approach. We applied two coats of a high adhesion primer, specifically designed for challenging surfaces like MDF and previously vinyl-wrapped units. This primer not only sealed the porous MDF but also provided a robust base for the topcoats, preventing any potential issues such as bleed-through or uneven absorption of the paint.
The Colour Transformation: Dimpse Perfection
With the preparation complete, it was time for the colour transformation. The homeowners had selected Farrow & Ball’s “Dimpse,” a sophisticated pale grey with subtle blue undertones. This colour choice perfectly complemented the kitchen’s existing features and brought a sense of calm and elegance to the space.
We used a specialist hardwearing paint, specifically formulated for furniture and kitchen cabinets. This paint is designed to withstand the daily wear and tear of a busy kitchen, ensuring a long-lasting and durable finish. Two coats were applied, allowing each layer to dry thoroughly before the next. This meticulous approach resulted in a smooth, even, and flawless finish, showcasing the beauty of the Dimpse colour.

At JS Decor, we pride ourselves on our attention to detail and our reviews. We understand that it’s the little things that make a big difference. From ensuring clean lines and sharp edges to carefully inspecting the final finish, we strive for perfection in every project.
The transformation of this Longridge kitchen was remarkable. The peeling vinyl was gone, replaced by a sleek, modern finish in the beautiful Dimpse hue. The kitchen felt brighter, more spacious, and undeniably refreshed. The subtle blue undertones of the paint complemented the existing features of the kitchen, creating a cohesive and stylish look.
