How do I paint particle board kitchen cabinets and doors ?
I have a small 7 year old kitchen that has some scratches and chipped parts on the kitchen cabinet doors. I would like to repair the chips and scratches and paint the doors and cabinets with a great wipable sealed paint. What do you suggest? I know I need to clean them and fill and sand, but is there a paint that won’t show brush strokes and will give a solid finish that is strong?

Take one of the cabinet doors to the paint department of the home improvement store and ask them to select paint/stains and other finishes and application tools that will work for your kitchen. They have the best selection, the most up-to-date materials and most important, the most informative sales staff to get you what you need for a professional job.
The easiest way to paint without showing brush marks is to buy a paint sprayer. I have a Wagner but many people love the HomMax. They are not expensive and you will get the look you want. Also use a good acrylic paint from BM, SW and now Behr makes one. Do not use cheap paint or chalk paint. Too much work to repaint your kitchen and those paints do not last. Hope this helps
Or try chalk paint, will cover minor imperfections
