Repainting kitchen unit doors   
I'm considering repainting my rather dark kitchen unit doors to brighten up 
my kitchen.  They're a dark wood, quite heavily varnished and with a strong 
grain.

I'm planning on taking each door off its hinges, sanding and painting them, 
then remounting them once they've fully dried.  Are there any particular 
precautions I should take when repainting them beyond lightly sanding them? 
And in addition (you can tell I'm no expert at this), do I need a particular 
type of paint?

Many thanks.
