I would imagine you could but you sure are creating a ton of work for yourself. Painted wood paneling -grooves and all is being done a lot these days and looks great. I think I would consider covering the paneling with 1/2" sheet rock if a smooth surface was the goal. After all - what price sanity?!

∙ 10y agoI am painting my garage door and was going to attempt to use a paint brush to go over the door cracks with joint compound before I painted to make the surface look flawless. Would this work?
No it will not work, because when the drywall compound dries totally it will lose adherence and crack each time the door is moved. It will soon look bad again. Much better to use an acrylic caulk like Alex ll or similar.

How should I prepare the surface of my kitchen cabinets for painting?
Use gripper as a primer before painting your cabinets. I made the mistake of putting paint over cabinets with out gripper and the paint easily chipped and would even scratch with as little as a fingernail when opening a door or drawer. The next time I painted cabinets I used gripper and after 5 years the cabinets still look like new.
Can I use glossy white spray paint to make the Ikea Linnmon Flat Color Desk into a Glossy One?
With proper surface preparation, yes. To prepare the surface, you should very lightly scuff all surfaces you plan on painting. A sanding sponge would work great for this (220 grit or close to it) - your end goal is to just rough the surface up enough to give the new paint a better surface to adhere to. Make sure you wipe all the sanding dust off before painting and be very careful not to get too aggressive while sanding as you do not want to expose the raw material of the desk. Testing first on a small, inconspicuous area is never a bad idea :)
