Do I need to treat it, or can I emulsion straight over it?
-
Treat it with stain block or use some aluminium paint or it will bleed through the new paint.
-
If you have any oil based paint that will act as a stain block (I use undercoat but gloss will do) then paint over with your emulsion (takes a couple of coats of emulsion to match)
Make sure you've resolved whats caused the stain.

As both previous replies.
Both options will work satisfactory :y
And as previously stated....ensure the cause is repaired, and the stain is dry prior to painting. :y
-
If you're going to use oil based gloss, give it a light sand before you apply the emulsion.

No need, Steve, if you put it on inside out :y

Next time, take a p!ss BEFORE you swallow the blue pill ;D

Of course...but you need a back to front brush for that.

Emery paper is cheaper. I once used a back to front brush by mistake and ended up with a very dull door. :(

That's not a mistake, but negligence. How can you mistake a back to front brush...its bristles are inside out, totally different colour :y
-
For those who don't know...this is the difference.....
