You would need to sand your cabinets before painting. If your cabinets have a factory finish just sand lightly with 120-grit sandpaper or a sanding sponge.

When I paint furniture, after repairing then scuff with steel wool, clean with alcohol or tsp, prime, and paint. If it has flaking or peeling you will have to sand. If you need to strip, citristripnus a good product. If it’s shiny you will need to degloss.

Sand down any paint coming off chipping take knobs off and handles and hinges or cover hinges with tape after you sand then lightly then you paint them or stain them which ever then varnish then so you could wash them PS before you paint wash whole pieces with Murphy’s oil soap to take off all wax and oils .
