Full question:

What is the best way to paint over a laminate surface? I did it once before on a cheap table and book shelf and over the last 6 years the paint has chipped really badly. Actually, it started chipping about as soon as it dried and we set anything on it. I sanded, primered, and painted but maybe I didn’t do it right.

My answer:

You need to use a special sealer on surfaces like this - I would try Kilz available at Lowes.
