Painting kitchen cabinets

You could replace the flourescent fixture with a track lighting system that uses the existing junction box. There are fixed and flexible tracks, and a variety of trackheads and lamps to choose from. Using a combination of wallwashers and spots would give you both ambient and task lighting exactly where you need it.

It may be time to put a price tag on your irritation level. Get a few quotes from the pros and you'll soon know how much the cabinets really bother you.

3 months later, and i've taken fresco's advice.

my painter tells me that it will be 700 to do the cabinets with oil-based paint. it's a go. there's no way in hell 700 isn't worth the aggravation of tackling it myself.

the cabinets are officially painted. funny thing is the invoice said 1100 instead of 700. i guess i misheard him. but, that still seems reasonable.

i kinda miss the old cabinets. :unsure:
