What type of paint to use on laminate cabinate and where to purchase

preparation to paint will be the key to the success of the job, and as tto 'what type' of paint -- if in your kitchen, or bathroom you will want something durable and washable -- a good paint store ( not a Big Box store ) will have technicians to advise you ..

I would check with your local paint store for suggestions...there is a paint at Home Depot specifically formulated for laminate. You could also use either chalk paint or fusion paint sealed with polycrylic for durability

I would go with chalk paint. It's really good at adhering to most surfaces

Chalk paint requires little or no prep on laminate. I did my kitchen laminate cupboards. I used chalk paint but it took a lot of coats and was kind of expensive. I write in my blog post that I probably would go with a primer like Kilz and then semi-gloss paint over that. It's all labor intensive but a really inexpensive fix for ugly laminate cupboards. Here's the link to my kitchen makover post.
