Hi, because the doors are varnished you will need a primer to adhere to the varnish. otherwise the paint may chip off over time fight down to the varnish

zinsser bin is what a lot of painters would use for this job,then its a matter of undercoating maybe 2 coats and again topcoat of your choice, again maybe 2 coats

a light rub down between coats etc etc
