we have thin wood paneling in hallway which am wanting to paint over - slight vanish on it
have given it a light sand and now want a sealer - would really prefer a sealer that is acrylic as I just cant paint with oil due to smell etc.
any recommendations or would i need to use an oil based (have been around a few different places asking and seem to be getting differing opinions)

I would suggest the Zinsser Bulls Eye 123 primer sealer. Has good adhesion to glossy surfaces and has a stain blocker in it also, so if your wood is stained it wont bleed through. Its water based also. Any of the hardware stores will have it and probably some paint shops will also.
I use a undercoat that has a sealer in it. I can't remember the name now. It's great to, use it indoors and outdoors.

The shellac based one is better as it's stain blocking capabilities are 2 nd to none,also adheres to any surface,would'nt look at any other product,tried & proven for mysel

That Zinsser Bulls Eye sealer is so amazing. I strongly recommend it as suggested by nzmax and kenw1. I was lucky to get from Mitre 10 at 2 4L cans for $90 just before Xmas.
