Kitchen
Kitchen cabinets can be refinished using a similar stain and the removal of the pin stripe glaze. Contact NHance for a quote for refinishing. In the meantime, clean them with a cabinet specific cleaner. To try to repair the worn pin stripes on the cabinets, try a cabinet stain pen.
Remove the existing 4 inch granite backsplash and install a simple backsplash using subway style tiles in a warm beige color and warm beige grout. Use the granite colors as a guide and avoid going too light or too dark.
