    Cleaning and preping is almost more important than the top coat. Wipe the door with liquid sand paper or a towel with laquer thinner and then prime with Zinsser's Bullseye 1-2-3 After that two coats of a good name brand water based acrylic enamel should be what you need. A good china bristle brush or short nap roller but not foam. I add Floetrol to help the paint to flash which makes a very smooth finish. Floetrol® Latex Paint Additive
