If your going to use Ben Moore use the 02400 or the 09400 oil primers. They will penetrate the wood and give good bite. Capesams is right about the higher sheen levels being harder and you could put a coat of eggshell oil white (10801) on after that, but the primer is a must before paint. I wouldn't go high gloss though because you may encounter adhesion issues. Just my 2 cents. Also make sure the primer and oil paint has had more than enough time to fully dry if you're going to put createx over it, any residual oils and the paint will be very unhappy.
