Yes you can paint laminate with the proper prep. You must lightly sand them and clean off any residue left. A good primer is also required followed by a paint specifically for bathroom vanities and then seal making sure you do not use a poly that will yellow.

Yes you can.....I just got through with a similar project where I stained instead of painting my kitchen cabinets. You will need to sand to rough up the surface, this allows the paint/stain to adhere to the surface better.

Yes you can, but use a bonding primer. This makes sure your paint will not flake off. I would also use liquid sandpaper before the bonding primer.

Rustoleum do a kit for $150[Canadian] which contains everything you need plenty of colours to choose from and it is all low odour, we did our kitchen almost a year ago and we are still very happy with the result, it is very hard wearing and easy to clean.

Yes, they have paint for that. I suggest you use a primer first. Friend has done it twice.
