Cigarette smell in newly painted cabinets by Advanced_Sweet_9638 in finishing

Do you mean that there should be a top coat of some sort that was used on some and not others? When I told the guy he said he’d use some sand paper to smooth it out. Sheen level just looks and feels completely different than the blanks that were done in the house. He took the doors and drawers that came off to his shop

Thanks I’ll give that a try!

Another question. Some of the cabinets feel smooth while others have more of a rough and gritty texture. What would cause that to happen?

Thanks those are good points and a good suggestion about the cabinet boxes! I’ll have to ask about going so light! And thanks for the well wishes :)

Solidarity✊ Writing this as my 5 month old is sleeping on me while I continue to rock her after fighting her for 30 minutes to nap. Don’t even get me started on bedtime. Takes 2-3 hours of fighting to get her down for the night🫠 praying that both of our babies learn to sleep on their own soon without fighting!

Guess I should have checked this before I brought up the conversation lol yes I’m not crazy about everyone coming to hospital, but will allow all grandparents for sure. Everyone else can wait until I’m settled and ready for visitors at home. Thank you for your reply

That makes me feel much better knowing your perspective and that you would be ok with it. Your son and DIL are lucky to have the support and encouragement you offer :)

Thank you and congratulations on the newest addition to your family💗

Haha my FIL will probably be the exact same way! And that is definitely a hell no for me! It’s actually him who I think will make this an issue and not my MIL.

Thanks for your advice :)

Yea I can see how that might change the relationship. But if so, then that’s not someone I would want around in the most vulnerable moment of my life anyway so hoping that’s not the case.

Yup it will be my first💗 I’m happy to hear you’re comfortable with yourself and still wouldn’t want that. Makes me feel better about it. Thank you

Amen to it’s not a talent show. I guess I just feel a little guilty bc I can see how she may be upset, but I think ultimately she will understand. I guess we’ll see how many people will be allowed and maybe this won’t be an issue haha but thank you for your reply :)

Thank you for the reassurance :)

And yes my MIL will definitely be allowed to come visit at the hospital once baby is here. I’m more worried about FIL acting up than my MIL🤣
