Thanks everyone.

The reason I asked about wood filler was because it seemed the
cheapest way to cover the entire cabinet, which would be about 50
square feet.

I don't know how many coats I'll need to apply, but how much Zinnser
or Bondo would I need?


You don't want Bondo. You'll just make way more work for yourself, and for
no good reason. Can't tell you how much Zinnser you'll need. It all
depends on how much the particle board soaks up, and how well it builds up
with subsequent coats. I suppose I'd get a couple of quarts and see how far
that went.
