Gloss enamel Steve.

Do a nice thin brush coat getting into the corners and allow to dry for a short while. Put brake cleaner or lighter fluid on an industrial type paper towel. Stretch it over a flat wooden baton and wipe over changing the towel after each pass.

Repeat as necessary. Two coats should be enough.
