Can I brush stain on oil paint to give it an antique look if I want to make the paint darker as well as even darker highlights in the grooves of my cabinet?
I'm answering my own question, but other opinions welcome. According to my local paint store, a gel stain will work (but not a liquid), or also paint. I'm going in there today with my paint sample and also another cabinet that's been pickled as a sample, to see what they suggest would be better for the look I want.

Can i paint over latex paint without priming with latex paint and3 shades darker?
Yes. The only qualifier is that if it's a glossy paint it is always good to sand and prime. Three shades darker won't be a problem at all. Darker will always cover better than lighter. If it were three shades lighter you wanted to go, I would say prime, prime, prime. You may need to put three coats on, but if you have a good paint, two will do nicely. If anyone tells you it is possible in one coat, don't listen. There are no one coat paints, I don't care what the can says.
