I* would like to paint my kitchen cabinets. They are particle board with a vinyl overlay. The only paint I casn find is Krylon spray, but I'm afrain of "runs" on the doors. How can I do it with a brush? Do I need a special primer? I have a gallon of porch & floor {Latex} enamel that I want to use as a top coat.

Light coats of spray are recommended.

This would limit the 'run' effect.

Are sure its vinyl? And not just a laminate facing or a plastic ? This could make a big difference on what paint you can use. Nothing much stick to vinyl for daily use that I know of maybe I am wrong. I am just thinking car seats, arm rest etc. If is truly vinyl they make a type of stains for that. They redo car vinyl car dashes with them The stain flexes better than any paint. Just maybe check into a car paint supply house and not the PEP boys or Advance. A real supplier of car paint and stains. Look at our bumpers now and the type of materials in them and what the do to "paint that" Check it out maybe.
Happy Holidays

I think Dulux do a paint range especially formulated for kitchen cupboard doors. Have you ever considered replacing the doors altogether? You may think it's expensive but I did it in my old house, it was a massive kitchen & it only cost me about £500 & it looked like a brand new kitchen. It would have been even cheaper if the cupboards had been a standard size as I had to have the doors specially made instead of just buying them "off the peg".
