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.
Clean with TSP, prime with Kilz Original, then paint with a high quality paint.
I agree with both Kathy and William
Wash down with TSP, wear glove sit is very strong. Next day, use Kiltz primer. After that is dry , paint with desired paint. Buy the best paint you can afford.
