Is it ok to use white undercoat instead of white emulsion
paint.

No. It will look very odd, and you don't really want oil based
paint in a kitchen cupboard. If it is acrylic water based
undercoat, there's no harm in it, but it doesn't look
particularly good without a top coat.



I forgot to mention that the undercoat is not oil based. It says it
is alkyd based and takes about 4 to 5 hours to dry.

When it dries it kind of looks like emulsion paint.

If you do a large area with an oil paint - give yourself plenty of
ventilation.
