If these are new cabinets and you have a choice, use a Thermofused Melamine Panel and edgebanding.
Real clean, no fuss, no muss. Water resistant and fairly durable.

If these are existing cabinets or made of Particle Board or MDF, find a good white primer and then apply a topcoat finish. I prefer Precatalyzed Lacquers myself.
