Say good bye to that glossy look with a spray can. Some folks use clear, matte finish paint. You can see right through it to the color of the original finish, but the matte finish breaks up the "smoothness" and kicks that glossy look to the curb. Just about any hardware store will have it, and so will the big box outfits.

How do you keep paint from getting finger prints?
No magical solution for this one but the more sheen (amount of gloss) that a paint has, the better it will withstand dirt and abrasiveness. Instead of painting with a flat paint which is the most prone to dirty fingerprints, try a matte or satin sheen. These are both more glossy than flat yet less glossy than eg-shell or semi-gloss. Also note that glossy paints will show more surface imperfections than flat paints.

Can you paint flat paint over an acrylic paint?
Do you realize that you can get FLAT ACRYLIC PAINT. Flat paint refers to the gloss level. You may want Gloss, Satin, Lowsheen or Flat. Acrylic paint on the other hand refers to what the paint is based on or what binder is being used. Acrylic paint is also refered to as waterbased paint. You most likely are referring to putting flat acrylic over lowsheen or gloss acrylic. In answer to your question - as long as they are both acrylic than you will not have any problems. I am in this answer assuming that you are referring you house paints. If not than the same principle applies - acrylic over acrylic is fine. To keep acrylic from going glossy just don't polish it.
