Clean really well to be sure all dust and dirt have been removed. Use a good primner such as Zinsser Bullseye 1-2-3 and then put on your finish coat. You can tint the primer to the same shade as your top coat. That way you will require only one top coat.
Make sure the paneling is clean and dry. Prime with a good stain blocking primer like Kilz. Then paint like painting regular walls. Acrylic latex paint will work. If the paneling has grooves you can fill them with non shrink drywall patching compound. Just put on enough to fill the grooves. Let it dry overnight. Next day use a damp sponge to smooth the patch. Then prime and paint.
