What's the best way to prepare for painting with gloss?

The wood i am painting is already painted with gloss. How much do i need to sand? (Im a lazy DIYer).What's the best way to prepare for painting with gloss?
DO NOT put comet on your wood!!!!!!!!!!!!! get some sanding sponges and sand it down to get the shine out. the sanding sponge works well because it is easy to hold and is flexible to get into the grooves.What's the best way to prepare for painting with gloss?
You need only to sand enough to remove the glossy finish not the paint and and any imperfections in the old finish. Make sure you remove any sanding residue before painting
You can quickly knock down the gloss with comet and a sponge.





Or get a primer that adheres to gloss.
