Probably, but it would work best if you sand the furniture first...
You didn't mention whether you were using latex or oil based primer and paint, but generally the point of using primer is so that you can paint over it with any form of wall paint. Just read the label on your primer can to make sure it is compatible. On the other hand, if you wanted to paint the primer over the satin gloss, you need to sand the surface lightly to remove the sheen of the paint and provide a suitable surface for the primer to adhere properly.
You don't. It will peel off. There is a special paint for glass. Go to the craft store and find the paint for glass. In the 1930's there was an art form called reverse glass painting that you may want to learn about. This is still done in movies for special effects.
No. Oil paint has organics in it that attract fungus and mildew. Use latex and add an additive that will help stop any growth.
There is no perfect way, but gold with a tiny dash of red comes close.
You would first paint a solid color that is the back ground of the wood you want to imitate. Use a good exterior paint. Then, add the grain with a different color(s).
You can try scraping it off with a putty knife. If you happen to gouge the drywall in the process, use drywall mud over the spot, smooth it over with a putty knife. After it dries, try sanding it. If it is still not flat, scrape on a bit more drywall, allow to dry and sand again.
Any paint and decorating store should have little pads (like wet-wipes) that you rub onto the painted surface. Whether or not the paint rubs off will tell you what kind of paint was originally used.
If you have the required satin or semi-gloss base product and pigment, you can.
if an oil base enamel is used the answer is yes. if it's a newer, water borne enamel the answer is maybe. alkyd based enamels are designed to dry very hard for maximum durability. water based enamels are newer, have some of the qualities of oil but are more brittle. sanding an oil enamel is tedious work. use a 220 grit sandpaper, a lot of it if the job is sizable. work it until the surface is smooth and dull. vacuum it, dust it off, then use a tack cloth to grab any remaining dust as this will get into the paint and make your finish rough if even a little dust is dragged around with the paint brush. it might be better to prime twice and paint once as the primer is much easier to sand than the finish paint. the new water borne enamels can be lightly sanded between coats but be careful of being too aggressive with the sanding pad, sponge, or paper as it can tear the surface. sk painting
Sure you can!it will work just fine

Mixing the thermochromic pigment with paint in the ratio of 20%~25%.
It will fade over time. Not much else you can do that won't hurt your skin.
Well...
all you have to do is put a paint brush on the wall and rub it up and down
........ then you have to let it dry then paint a different color over top of the other color but only half paint it... then your wall will be PERFECT!!!!!!
Yes, Eggshell and Satin are very similar. Though i would recommend scuffing the walls with a sanding block or sandpaper to help with adhesion . Also current and new colors will make a difference, you may need to use primer if applying a lighter color over a darker one or if there are excessive stains on the walls.
I prefer to paint all walls and ceilings satin. I have no idea why people just automatically think that ceilings have to be flat...or even white. I do satin on the ceilings because of dust, yes dust does stick to the ceilings, esp near AC vents and around ceiling fans. Have you ever tried to sweep your flat white ceiling to get the dust off after a few years? It just smears. I think satin ceilings make small rooms brighter and larger. You must use satin or semi on the ceiling in the bathrooms, a bathroom environment is the one interior space that is actually most like an outdoor space with water splashing, steam, humidity, extreme temp changes, I wonder if it would be best to use exterior paint in the bathroom. For ceilings though I pick a white with a bit of grey and go all satin.
technically yes. here are step-by-step instructions:
