Points to be considered

Enamel paints ...
... can be applied with the help of a brush, roller or spray equipment. Study the directions for application methods and drying time and also do remember that more than a few quotes are better one or two thick quotes. However, while using a glossy paint keep in mind the higher the sheen, more imperfections will show up, so adequate preparations is crucial.

Expert Comments

Oil-based enamel takes 8 to 24 hours to reach optimum hardness. Water-based enamel takes up to a month. Till then care must be taken with washing and handling. Oil-based enamels dry inside out, so if you feel absolutely dry that means they are fully cured. Alternatively, water-based enamels dry from the outside in. In fact a skin forms on the surface of the paint, which give a feeling that the paint has dried. However, the underlying paint dries very slowly. In cool conditions, it can take quite a few weeks to dry.
