Email reply: Use Liquid Deglosser Rather Than Household DegreaserYou did all the right steps, but the one burr under the saddle could possibly have been the household degreaser. Most of them are good for hygienic cleaning, but not strong enough for cleaning for repainting. All it takes is a very minute film of grease to cause a problem with new paint. Even though you sanded there could have been a slight amount of grease left that got slid around, but not removed completely, which could cause the paint to not cure properly and cause the kitchen cabinet doors sticking. A Liquid Deglosser would clean away all the kitchen cooking grease that gets into the air and sticks to cabinet surfaces and it would prepare the surface for the application of new paint. Primer Topcoat CompatibleAnother problem could have been a primer and top coat that weren't compatible. Felt Pads And Thumbtacks To Cure The Kitchen Cabinet Door Sticking ProblemIf the paint feels dry to the touch and you can wash it ok and the only real problem is sticking and chipping where the kitchen cabinet doors hit the frame you could get some little self stick felt pads about 1/4 inch in diameter and put one on the frame and a thumb tack on the door so that it strikes on the felt pad. That should stop the cabinet doors from sticking and chipping and give a quiet closing door. If that doesn't work about the only remedy is to strip the paint off and repaint. Tom
