Water based paint such as latex and acrylic do not adhere well to oil paint.

Oil based paints will adhere well to water based paints sp it is unnecessary to prime before top coating, unless you have had to do any repairs to the surface.

Can you use Latex primer on previously oil painted trim and then paint with Alklyd paint?
Although many people believe that you cannot do this you could. Primers are made to adhere to almost any surface, including oil over latex or vice versa. However, why do you need to prime the oil surface in the first place? You can just paint the oil primer over the oil paint already on that surface. I personally prefer to use oil primer over oil paint and vice versa for latex, if priming is necessary at all. http://www.thepaintprofessional.com/
