Keep the uppers in place, remove the lowers.

Replace the doors and drawers, it’ll only cost a couple thousand and you’ll be glad you did it.

Sand everything with 210 grit paper to get good adhesion. Then use Benjamin Moore Advance paint. You can thin it to spray it or roll it on, it levels really nicely. The devil is in the prep: if you screw up the sanding there isn’t a layer of primer or paint you can apply to fix it, so make sure the foundation is solid.

So:
Sand
Prime
Light sand with 300 grit
Prime again
Light sand
Paint
Light sand
Paint
Light sand
Paint

And to reiterate: get new doors and drawer fronts, get them from someone who can match your paint color.
