1. A universal oil base primer, like Zinsser Cover Stain, is best. You can use a good acrylic primer; You will need to do a little more prep, lightly sand if possible to increase adhesion.

2. I prefer an alkyd primer over an alkyd finish. Most paint manufacturers will label their acrylic primers as adhering to alkyd finishes, but I am old fashioned and prefer alkyd primers. Sand and/or clean with TSP prior to applying the primer.
