Applying veneer to existing cabinet face frames?

Q: We are in the process of refacing our kitchen cabinets (all new doors/drawers/hardware). The site has answered most of our questions and given us all the pricing, but because our existing frames are painted plywood, we wanted to know if it's still possible to use your veneer products or are we stuck with the painted look and should order paint grade doors/drawers.

A. You can use a veneer to reface the existing face frames. In my experience this can be a messy process that is very time consuming. I do not want to make you think it is impossible, but most people tend to simply repaint the doors, or order new doors, and repaint the entire kitchen in order to achieve the updated kitchen look. Painted kitchens are very popular at the moment.
