Hi, we have access to an Abac air compressor and would like to use it to paint our clear varnished pine doors white.

Firstly, can this be done?

2) I want them done in gloss, can I just use normal gloss paint? I actually already have quite a lot of non drip gloss, can I use this?

3) Do I have to thin it down or add a conditioner like Owatrol oil to it?

4) We would have to get a spray gun, but which one (gravity fed?) and which size nozzle 1.4mm?

Also I have read about something called ESP which would cut out the sanding and undercoating stages, is this any good?

We also want to do the fences and shed with it, can we use the same gun?

Any help and advise would be greatly appreciated.
Thanks
