    Yes, you need to lightlysand,then get a good gripping stain blocking primer. For a more professional look use a paint sprayer. If that is not in your budget get several good mohair small rollers

    Hi Red! After cleaning and sanding, I recommend Lila for the first coat.

    Easy, peasy, as cabinets go. The easiest way is to: Clean (grease and grime from daily use); Sand (only if you have slightly broken or splintered areas); Paint with CHALK PAINT (it may only take one coat, depending on how much you change the color); Accessorize (paint or shine the hardware or change it altogether). Best wishes, Red, and be sure you takes pictures and post your project on Hometalk!
