you can paint anything, however, if you paint a fabric it will most likely dry stiff and little bits will be coming off for a long time. leather and vinyl can be painted with vinyl dye, usually sold at auto parts stores, but it won't last forever, it can scratch and rub off eventually, but then you just paint it again.

But here is a tip...if it is heavily glossed, like with a clear coat, then the paint will begin to chip and flake off (because ther is nothing for the paint to bind to, polyeurethane is very slick). Try to sand it a little to rought it up, but do so evenly for a consistent look. then it should be ready for a smooth coat of paint.

Can you paint wicker outdoor furniture, or do you have to let it breathe naturally?
Wicker furniture doesn't need to "breathe." The best paint for wicker furniture is auto body paint with a good sealer coat over top. Wicker furniture is not "all weather" furniture and should not be left outdoors. The sun will dry it out and make it brittle, and the rain will be absorbed by the fibers and cause them to rot. While you can use the furniture outdoors, the furniture should be kept in a covered location most of the time. There are lines of furniture designed to look like wicker that are in fact vinyl, which is more durable in the elements.

Can you paint over paint on wooden furniture?
Yes, you can - but unless you sand or roughen the original paint first, the second coat may not adhere properly. If you are re-painting, you don't need to remove all of the original paint. But making the surface rough will help the new paint stick to the old paint.
