Paint advice please?

I have an ikea 'lack' table and would like to paint a pattern on it

I know if I want to paint the whole of it I need to sand, prime etc. but with just a pattern, what type of paint would I need to use? Obviously want it to be durable and not scratch off. It's quite a shiny finish table. Here's the link to the table. (I have a white one)

Please help. Thankyou

You could paint it with any old paint then put a couple of clear coats of varnish over it.

Thankyou. I didn't realise varnish would work on that style finish? Would I be ok to only varnish the bits I paint as the finish on the table is fairly nice
