Lightly sand to remove any shine. Prime with KILZ, BIN, or Zinsser primer. Then paint with your color, seal with at least three coats of a water based polyurethane.
clean and prime as above - then use Benjamin Moore's Advance Pearl or Semigloss (two coats) to get a gorgeous finish. It's a hybrid paint and is easy to work with.
Your cabinets are unique, maybe try changing hardware and other trim in the kitchen before painting over them, I know how hard it is to strip paint so I am one that hates to paint wood
chalk paint covers everything, no priming or stripping, just paint. Lowes carries their own brand and it is cheaper than most

I love chalk paint and make my own as Fancynancylee said.
We cleaned ours with rubbing alcohol and lightly sanded. Then we painted them. Be sure to use a protective coat to finish. I used a semi-gloss. Easy cleanup.
Help! I have painted a very ornate dinning room table, china cabinet with chalk paint and waxed. I now want to paint a latex paint over it. Can I paint and then seal with something other than wax. The table get s LOT of heavy wear from my grandchildren. I really don't know how to get the wax out of the crevices.
I would ask at a reputable paint store they are usually very knowledgeable about all paints and stains.
