I want to pin-stripe highlight my kitchen cabinet doors with glaze on the corners and crevices?
Can I do that on already finished doors. Will the glaze stick or will it peel off?
Why would I replace perfectly good cabinets that are only a few years old? That would be even more ridiculous. I'd just as soon replace the doors. I saw a video on youtube that showed how to highlight them, only they didn't clarify if it can be done on pre-finished doors.

More than likely it will peel off. You would have to sand the cabinet doors down all the way thru the finish. Then apply the glaze and refinish them. It’s very time consuming.
I’m a kitchen contractor, and I’m not too sure about the sand then antique idea. Sanding through the original finish might make the delicate antiquing you’re thinking of doing look ridiculous.
I would probably suggest replacing the cabinets altogether. I get almost all of the cabinet I use from http://www.cabinetgiant.com, and they offer a really nice antique white cabinet at a really great price.
Remember that replacing will guarantee a great result, and will increase the value of your property too!
I would try the antiquing myself probably and then if it fails, then look at replacing
