hi,
I could'nt find your pics, but..
It all depends on the look you want. You can strip the doors and frame with paint stripper or have them dipped ( dipping my raise the ply layers tho, not recommended). The doors anc be removed to be stripped, sanded and sprayed or brushed. spraying will give you a bettter finish. Min wax makes a poly acrylic finish and it comes in sm spray cans as well as qts and gallons. It is waterbased and easy to use. It is very similar to the finish I use for high end cabinets and furniture. Working with the doors removed is easy work, the hard part is the frames as the work has to be done in place. Depending on your taste, and the condition of the frame, you may want to paint the frames . To maintain the natural wood can be done, it just taakes lots of work. The doors could also be replaced with new doors for a reasonable amount using baltic birch plywood. or a hardwood veneer plywood (actually a veneer on MDF)
