Yes, it is possible.
You will need to get to a good Craft/Art supply retailer and find the paints recommended for painting on glass and porcelain.
Next you must remove the knobs from the cabinet and clean them carefully to remove any traces of oils. Then paint away... the manufacturer will have instructions on the bottle for "setting" the paint. This usually requires baking them in an oven for a set time. Once this is done, just remount them and you have a whole new look.
NOTE, this works best if the knobs you currently have are white as most of the glass/porcelain paints I have found are not completely opaque, and multiple coats increase your chances of streaks or other flaws in the finish.
Yes, you can definitely paint porcelain. It is best painted with modelmakers enamel paints available in Hobby stores. I personally favour the Humbrol range, but there others almost as good. These paints give a good smooth, hard surface and a huge range of colours. Even though they are hard, I would overspray the finished result with a hard enamel gloss spray, such as Krylon Clearcoat.
Maybe, but I think there is a special paint for glass. I would think that porcelain paint wouldn't be quite thick enough.
Answer: If you use a two part epoxy made for porcelain, it should have no trouble sticking to glass, If you prefer a single component paint, XIM makes a primer that will allow you to paint any type of paint as a second coat. Also, PPG makes a water based paint called Break-Through that can be directly painted onto glass, ceramics and porcelain without a primer.
Yes but it wont bond in the long term... Might look good short term but it will eventually scratch off
No, it will drop off.
Yes, you can use urethane paint on porcelain mugs.
In any good craft or artist supply store you can purchase paints specifically made to paint on porcelain and glass. Read and follow the directions carefully. There are some steps you have to follow to make the paint durable. Read the cautionaries carefully as not all paints are dishwasher safe or safe for use on surfaces you will eat off of.
Aluminous porcelain. Porcelain is a glass product with a crystalline internal structure. In the case of porcelain used in sinks and toilets, the crystalline inclusions are mostly aluminum oxide which makes the glass tough and difficult to break. It also makes the porcelain opaque. Aluminum oxide is also used in the formulation of the glass matrix as a stabilizer. In this form, the aluminum oxide does not affect the translucency of the glass, but, rather makes it stronger and reduces the solubility of the glass.
It does seem to shatter glass rather easily. That being said it may just be a matter of density. I am not a scientist by any means but think about it. If porcelain has a greater density than glass it is almost as if you are throwing a brick at the glass.
Sure, just don't expect the paint to stay on very well. Porcelain is a very hard surface and don't really take paint particularly well.

Porcelain:-)
No, because the oil in the paint isn't compatible with the slick porcelain surface. It would be like pouring vegetable oil on a porcelain mask, it would slide right off.
Not really. I have seen it done, but the work is so fragile it peels chips and damages at the slightest touch. It is for this reason I use a glass pallet when I paint - really easy clean-up. There are several water clean-up type paints out there specifically intended for use on glass, porcelain, tile etc. better to use one of those.

Does paint come off glass?
Porcelain is actually glass. Iron castings in the shape of your sink are covered with powdered glass then "fired" to melt the glass to the iron. I don't know of many paints that can stick to glass, so painting a porcelain sink is almost impossible. That is, conventional painting... you can, however, contract with companies that use a powdered paint or other processes to coat a bathtub. I don't think the process has held up well on kitchen sinks. If the sinks are stained brown from rust, the stain could be coming up from a crack in the porcelain. That's difficult to remove, but you could try CLR or some other calcium and lime remover. Some of them work on brown rust stains as well. Sometimes it just gets to the point where it's not worth the trouble and you just have to give up and buy a new sink.

They are all solids.
