   Commercial cabinet makers use catalyzed lacquers for such finishes and they are about the toughest thing available.  You really need a good HVLP gun to apply it and you must have a good chemical or fresh-air supplied mask.  You can spray these in the garage if you can have a window open with a fan running and a door or other window cracked open.  They are too dangerous to spray inside of an occupied home.  Suppliers for such finishes are sparse.  They cater to the cabinetmaker trade and you may have one locally or you may have to buy them from a more distant supplier (you can find one online).  Some paint suppliers in your area may rent HVLP units, I know I could get them here.   Standard sprayers put out so much overspray that it is pretty inconvenient to use them and also increases the hazards considerably.

   Minwax polyurethane, just brush it on, numerous thin coats, do some sanding between coats.  You can take usually take the doors and drawer fronts off and spray them in the garage or even outdoors.  The overspray is a significant nuisance because of the slow drying time, so cover everything that matters.
