Shaker kitchen, resprayed
24 doors and 9 drawer fronts, routed shakerC2P-0117
A tired oak-look kitchen taken to satin white, with the routed shoulders kept crisp and the whole set sprayed together so it reads as one.

- 2PAC satin
Coastal 2PAC: doors, panels and profiles, sprayed properly. 2PAC spray painting for kitchens, wardrobes and joinery on the Gold Coast.
2PAC spray painting for kitchens, wardrobes and joinery. Describe what you have, show us the edges, and get an indicative range against our published rates.
The difference
is in the finish.
Two panels can be the same colour and the same paint and still be nothing alike. What separates them is how the surface hands light back to you: and that is decided under the coating, long before the colour goes on.
Satin
The default for kitchens, and the reason is practical as much as visual. Satin scatters light across a broad band, which means fingerprints, smears and the small imperfections in a long run of doors stop announcing themselves. It is the finish that still looks good on a Tuesday morning.

Anyone can spray colour. The job is the edges, and the edges are why kitchens fail.
The work
Every project
Fluted island front
Scalloped island panelling, black satinC2P-0124
A continuous fluted front in black satin: the hardest colour on the hardest profile, with nowhere for either to hide.
- Machined MDF
- Scalloped / fluted
V groove wardrobe fronts
Walk-in robe, 8 V grooved doorsC2P-0131
Eight grooved doors finished so the lines stay sharp and read straight along their full height.
- V grooved MDF
- 2PAC satin
Timber veneer panels, clear finished
Feature panels and island end, veneered boardC2P-0138
Two-pack clear with full UV protection over timber veneer: nothing to hide behind, so the preparation is about restraint.
- Timber veneer on board
- 2PAC clear
What we spray
All servicesTwo-pack is a catalysed coating. Base and hardener are mixed by ratio, and once they are mixed the clock is running. That is why the board underneath has to be finished before anything is sprayed.

The carcasses in most kitchens outlive the doors by a decade. Respraying the doors and panels changes the whole room for a fraction of a new kitchen, and it happens off site rather than in your house.

A routed door is bought for its detail. Spray it like a flat panel and the coating pools in the internal corners, softens the shoulders, and you have paid for a profile you can no longer see.

A V groove is a hard line cut into the board. The whole point of it is that it is sharp, and the whole risk of spraying it is that it stops being sharp.

These are the profiles people specify when the joinery is the feature. They are also the hardest to coat, because there is almost no flat surface to work with.

Clear coating over veneer is the opposite problem to colour. There is nothing to hide behind: the grain is the finish, and every mark in the sanding shows through it permanently.

Long, narrow, moulded sections are priced by the metre because that is how they behave. A three metre skirting board is one continuous surface, and it either reads straight along its whole length or it does not.

Colour is the part customers think about most and the part hardest to communicate. A code is exact. A photo is not.

Most doors that come in for a respray need something fixing first. A chipped edge, a swollen corner under the sink, a screw hole in the wrong place. Coating over any of it is money spent twice.

How a job runs
Six stages, in order, every time. Your carcasses stay in your house the whole way through.
01Send the job
Describe what you have and show us. The full run of doors, the edges, and anything already damaged.
02We collect
Doors, fronts and panels picked up from you. Hardware comes off and gets bagged by position.
- 03
Assess and repair
Swelling, lifting and chips found at strip, not at quote. Filled and sanded before anything is sprayed.
04Prep and prime
Edges sealed, primed and blocked until the face reads flat under a straight light. Most of the job is here.

05Spray and cure
Sprayed to ratio and flash times in a controlled booth, then cured to schedule. Whole sets in one session.
- 06
Back to you
Checked under booth light, wrapped, and delivered back. Return delivery is in the price.
Show us
the doors.
Nine questions and up to ten photos. You get the likely process, the rate lines it falls under and an indicative range: then it goes to the workshop for a human to look at properly.
Estimates are indicative only, worked against our published rates. Final pricing is confirmed by Coastal 2PAC after the job has been inspected or reviewed.
