They have special epoxy kits to do this! Visit Sherwin Williams or check your local home improvement stores. Usually the kit comes with the base and the activator in two separate pint cans that you will mix together. Don't try anything other than epoxy for porcelain and similar surfaces, because anything else won't work!

If you used the right paint, Bathroom paint, 2 top coats, over primmer,over greenboard primmer, over greenboard or paperless drywall, then no.
yes, it works perfectly, although I used a semi gloss. The paint is tougher and is less likely to soften due to moisture in the bathroom.
remove the paint with a paint remover or sand it off then stain easier if the doors are removed if applicable. Control the humidity by installing a vent fan before the wood swells and splits. Eventually, mold will eventually take over and make the room unhealthy.
You need to find the hardest enamel you can to do this and still have a useable countertop. If this arborite was in my kitchen or bathroom, I'd glue new arborite sheet over it instead of fooling around painting it. These surfaces get way too much use for any paint to stand up to.
As long as you use a good primer first, you can use it over anything.

That's a matter of personal preference and the style of the lighting. You CAN get bathroom lights that are attached to the sides of the mirror, but generally they go to the top edge.
Not really. It's really hard to Paint over tiles with a good and lasting result.
Usually, the mirror is 75% (3/4) the width of the vanity. Then, your light should be 3/4 the size of your mirror. Many people use a 24-inch light with a 36-inch mirror, which is a little smaller than the 75% rule, but still okay.

Use a good quality primer and paint. You can get a paint/primer in one but if you're having a lot of steam issues, get primer and paint separately. I once used some DIY custom color for my bathroom. I made it up from a bunch of left over paints I had. All were latex but some were indoor, some outdoor. It seemed to hold up very well in the bathroom conditions. And if at all possible, try to leave the window or door into the bathroom open just a little when showering to let the steam escape. Some exhaust fans just don't do the trick al by themselves.
The type of lighting you should install all depends on your preferences, as well as cost. Installing vanity lights will serve to help those with vision problems, while overhead lighting will be cheaper, and less work to maintain.
you don't you paint over it!! you don't you paint over it!!
