Default kitchen cupboard doors

Hi
I was wondering if it's possible to paint or recover kitchen cupboard doors. They are the standard doors that you can wipe clean not wooden ones that you can sand.

Hi. You can paint basically anything one you give it a good cleaning and a coat of primer. Standard cabinets, if not wood, will be simply laminate and paint may or may not take to it easily as it's a smooth surface. You'll need to remove the smoothness by either giving it a very light sanding (even use wire wool) or by applying an undercoat, either of which will allow your final top coat of paint to stick to the surface....!

if you use chalk based pain you don't need to prime, I did my wardrobes with Authentico, have a look at Re-loved.net Ursula's shop is based in Trim and is a mine of information!!
