Paint and wax colors

Our Classic Cupboards Paint™ and Classic Cupboards™ Cabinet Wax are mixed and pigmented right here in our cabinet painting studio. We developed 26 different cabinet paint colors and 5 wax colors that update older kitchens to blend with today’s interiors.

Classic Cupboards™ Wax

We formulated our Classic Cupboards™ Cabinet Wax to seal and protect our Classic Cupboards Paint™, creating a water and stain resistant surface perfect for painted kitchen cabinets.

Our soft and creamy cabinet wax, which is hand-applied in multiple layers and buffed to a matte sheen, is offered in neutral and tinted wax colors to complement our paint colors.

Tinted wax colors

Neutral wax creates a clear, protective coating on our whites and lightest colors. The tinted waxes add depth to our finishes and create endless cabinet color combinations. Unlike glazes, which tend to look brushed on or outlined, our tinted waxes are hand rubbed for an authentic look.

The tinted wax shades can complement colors from your backsplash, countertops, floor, or woodwork. We use antique wax on our white painted cabinets to soften the bright new kitchen cabinet color, blending in the wood color from existing floors, baseboards, and doors. Warm or cool grey wax can keep an all white kitchen from looking sterile, and black wax on our darker colors creates a dramatic, metallic look.

Original & Premium finishes

Our 15-layer, 20-step Classic Cupboards Paint™ Process creates a thick, tough cabinet coating and the multiple layers add a unique depth to our beautiful finishes. This durability and depth cannot be achieved with the industry standard of a few thin, sprayed-on coats.

One of our clients said it best, “Simply no comparison.”

We offer 2 different grain-filling finishes, Original and Premium, both of which are backed by our 10-Year Warranty.

Original Finish

The beautiful depth of our Classic Cupboards™ Original Finish is the same smooth painted finish that our customers have enjoyed for years and continues to be our most popular finish with a price point to fit a wide range of remodeling budgets.

Premium Finish

Our sleek Classic Cupboards™ Premium Finish, which requires several additional steps to achieve, feels as smooth as glass and looks most similar to a baked-on enamel factory finish.
