Strip it with acetone, fill in the dings, holes, gouges and corners with bondo, or resin, sand, and you have a new cabinet. It's really simple to make an old cabinet look new again.

Quoted from Bryan_Kelly:If you want it done right, no, it is not that easy.
I'm curious as I've done them and In the process of two more. What's so hard? Unless it was dropped or completely trashed, all of the existing wood is still as good as the day it left the factory. Maybe clamping a corner? I don't know...
Quoted from Bryan_Kelly:Are you doing the inside also? What does your final result look like?
I didn't take any pics of the inside, but it was done. I think it turned out good enough. All of the corners were shot, gouges in random places. The paint isn't perfect, but it was covered with radcals anyways.
