I have some of those metal cabinets in my garage also, they came out of a rental years ago that my dad was redoing and they work well in the garage.

I had some freebie cabinets from a display case company that I gave away when I built my shop. I miss them, if for nothing else because I didn’t care about keeping them looking nice.

I have three different kitchen cabinets in my place. Painted them grey with black doors. Looks awesome IMO

I like that color combo, I painted mine white for the sole purpose of reflecting more light.

I actually thought about sanding them down and painting them but I should probably do my car first so it might be laytex and a roller for now

Those look like "Youngstown Cabinets" made by Mullins Manufacturing. After WWII, wood was in demand and metal cabinets, aluminium siding were popular in easing the wood demand. A local division of Republic Steel, "Truscon" even made all steel houses, they were small ranch type houses. Those cabinets hold up pretty good. Nice job on re-purposing them.
