Scuff it first

You're going to have to get the lacquer off. Go to a Ace Hardware or Home Depot and buy a stripping product. Follow the directions. Ace Hardware employees are really helpful and know their stuff. Then you'll need to lightly sand it with sandpaper and then steel wool. Then it will be ready to paint. Good luck!

You can either sand and then prime and paint or apply a product called Liquid Sandpaper and then prime and paint. The Liquid Sandpaper provides a slightly roughened surface, or tooth, to the lacquer so the primer and paint will adhere. Use a high adhesion primer as well. Should work out just fine for you.

You want to rough-in up the finish by sanding otherwise you will have trouble with the new paint adhering.

Lightly sand it or use Liquid Sand so that you'll have a surface that will take paint.

Just clean it with a dipped cloth in cerosine oil
