Prime with Kilz or some stain-blocking product like it, preferably oil based, first. This is absolutely necessary for a good paint job.

I moved into an older manufactured home covered in paneling "felt like I was in jail". I primed with Kilz them used Glidden eggshell finish with primer. Came out great, I also did the "stripes" with a brush before rolling.

I used a brush to fill grooves and used a paint that had primer in it.

You might have to use a brush to get the paint in the lines of the panel then rolling paint worked well with me. You might have to do two coats. I think most people skid the roller on the paneling in some areas...another reason to back paint

I have always used primer then paint. Brush to fill the grooves then a roller. The next time which will be next spring/summer, I plan on filling in the grooves and skim coating with something like joint compound first so that it doesn't look like paneling once it's all done.
