Yes. Clean and degloss the oil based paint, apply an oil based primer, then apply the water based paint.
You have a contradiction ! - Latex primer CAN NOT BE oil based.
Not a good idea, better to use oil based primer.
It depends what kind of finish you will put on it, and whether it will be indoors our out: Indoors, latex paint: use latex wood primer Indoors, varnish: no primer required but can be stained, may need multiple coats Indoors, oil base: use an interior oil base primer Outdoors, latex paint: use an exterior latex wood primer Outdoors, varnish: no primer required but can be stained, use exterior varnish Outdoors, oil base: use an exterior oil base primer It depends what kind of finish you will put on it, and whether it will be indoors our out: Indoors, latex paint: use latex wood primer Indoors, varnish: no primer required but can be stained, may need multiple coats Indoors, oil base: use an interior oil base primer Outdoors, latex paint: use an exterior latex wood primer Outdoors, varnish: no primer required but can be stained, use exterior varnish Outdoors, oil base: use an exterior oil base primer
Yes, if the primer is oil-based too (alkyd is good too)
Yes it will.
Yes you can.
Yes, you can
Staining cedar will always last longer than painting it. In either case the wood must be clean. Do not spray stain. If painting use two coats of primer and if using a oil base primer use a oil base topcoat.
As long as the surface is clean and dull, then either an oil or acrylic primer can be used to cover oil-based paints.
yes. However, you cannot use an oil base paint over a latex primer. If you change your mind on the paint, you must strip the paint before you use an oil based paint on the primer.
A good primer.
