Can you use latex paint over an epoxy painted wall. and what steps are needed?
You can definitely use latex paint over epoxy. In fact, it is recommended to use latex over epoxy by the paint manufacturers, rather than using epoxy over epoxy. The latex adheres better and if you then want to use epoxy next time you paint, you have a nice coat of latex between the layers. If you use epoxy over epoxy, often the paint will just peel off in layers once some time passes (and sometimes right away).

How do you strip latex wall paint from formica cabinets?
Latex is water-based paint, so take a very thin rag, put it over the edge of a putty knife and scrape very carefully. It should come off quite easily. Don't rush this job! Take your time and the latex should come off like butter.If the paint has a tenacious bond, use some denatured alcohol to slowly dissolve the latex paint.If the formica cabinets have been painted with latex paint and you want to remove the entire coat, use a citrus based stripper overnight to remove the paint. Cover the surface with plastic sheeting to concentrate the fumes for a more efficient strip. Rinse with water, reapply if necessary.

Can you paint oil over latex that is painted over oil?
Hi there, Technically you can, but there may come a day where things starts to chip off. If you have the time, maybe it's better to take off the latex now. On the other hand, if the latex-over-oil was primed well (with shellac), it will hold, and painting oil over that will be OK too for at least 5 years. The oil will suck into the latex, and become matte and maybe blotchy. You can help it by either priming it first (shellac or oil-based primer), or shining it up with a laquer afterwards.
