Did you try HomePro, Global House, Lotus's, Big C or one of the many Jotun etc paint shops?.

Take the door off and at least paint it out in the open air so the odour is not too overpowering.

Any vinyl, then top coat with RTB gloss polyurethane. It works well and I use this option.

I just painted some cabinets white gloss oil base using two brands.  Toa brand at little paint shop on Thepprasit road and nippon brand from one of the big homestores.

  

And Ran into many problems with the paint and application.  Roller fuzz came out on first cabinet leaving unpleasant splotches.  Plus I applied it too thick and running drips formed even though I smoothed them out many times.  About 100 paint brush hairs fell out and got imbedded in cabinets, leaving ugly marks.

 

It still looks much better but not perfect. No where near professional. I bought the best quality brushes and rollers.

 

Oil paint is much thicker and stickier than water based paint so you need proper rollers and brushes.  Plus apply thin coats or unsightly drips and runs will form.  It is a week later and many cabinet doors are sticking and hard to open.

What is difficult about the regimen I suggested? It has very little smell and is very fast.

 

Also if your only requirement is to waterproof the door then just use the RTB polyurethane, you can do about 4~5 coats in one day

I like the high gloss TOA Glipton enamel for doors, it goes on smooth and dries to a nice gloss. Available most everywhere.

Yep, I use the semi gloss on a couple of my bathroom doors.

 

10% or so of thinners will help it go on smoother, but will make it harder to control drips and will produce more smelly vapours. Take the door off and paint it horizontally in a well ventilated indoor area, free from dust, for a decent result.

 

Use a gloss roller, but not a furry one.
