Hi
I've used both acrylics and enamels with good results. I put it on after I glass so the lines stay sharp and put epoxy over it so I don't inadvertantly sand it off when preping for varnish or when I sand the varnish down to re-coat. Also to make sure my epoxy bond with the wood is as good as possible. It would probably work just as well to paint over a sealer coat that had been sanded.
good luck
