don't paint it [yellow] , remove all previous coatings (machine sand) apply a stain - you'll find it more sympathetic to the timber and the opacity can be built to appear like paint . Sadolin classic (first coat) and sadolin extra durable for two three more, the 'oil' stuff. Loads of other brands available

Linseed oil paint might look good on this.
Wash it. Sand it.Treat the water damage as required. Sand again. Sand some more. Paint as required with sanding between coats as needed.

I’m sure this has been asked a thousand times, but…
I want to paint my front door bright yellow, it’s solid oak, has a bit of water staining at the bottom and Liz hates it. If it was painted bright yellow she may let it stay. How and other what should I do?
