You can go to a paint store and they will guide you to the correct products needed. You will want to prime it first so the paint will stick to the table because the high gloss will be too slippery to paint alone. You may need to lightly scuff sand it first. There are paints made for cabinetry that have a primer mixed in already too. Places like Sherwin-Williams are very knowledgeable.

You need to sand it well. Then put on a top quality oil based sealing bonding primer, and then paint with either cabinet paint, or furniture paint. Follow the directions on the can. Some of those paints say 24 hours between coats. Check, what your primer says, and also what the paint can says, and follow that information. Primer in paint is a joke. It wont do what you want it to, and it is always best to use regular primer, especially, when you are doing furniture.
