I have never done this however there is a whole process from removing dirt grease etc. prior to painting. Check the dyi websites for further details.

@Janet, this is a DIY site, which is why @Vicki, came here for help. Vicki, I first need to know whether or not your paneling is knotty pine. Knotty pine is a whole other ballgame when it comes to painting.

I haven't used it on paneling but on wood furniture .. it worked well. Paneling would be labor intensive, I'm imagining a room of paneling.

I work for Lowes and have had a customer do this. Make sure you use a fine grit sand paper to give it an extra smooth surface. Paneling is porous and stained so you need to use an oil base primer before you paint. After that is smooth sailing.
