New look for older kitchen cabinets?

Question

I have older kitchen cabinets. They originally were dark brown, not wood, but some kind of veneered, particle board. They are still pretty solid. I painted them about 7 years ago with white semi gloss melamine paint. How would I paint them with an antique white finish? They are showing wear, but I think this look would work.

Answer 1

You'll need to sand the cabinets, for starters, even if it's just to dull the gloss finish.  If you want an antique white finish, experiment with using an off-white or cream color paint over what you have.  Sand the edges slightly for a worn look.
