Can you paint over epoxy paint with latex paint?
Yes, but it may not stay on very well. Besides, epoxy paints are very hard and wear resistant, while latex paints aren't. If the epoxy paint was needed the first time, repainting with something much less durable might not be such a wise move.
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).
Is latex paint and acrylic paint the same?
no
Can you use rubber base over epoxy base paint?
When you say rubber base paint I assume you mean latex paint. Yes, latex paint will adhere to an existing epoxy finish. However, the epoxy must already have cured. Meaning, it was already applied sometime in the past. A pretty good rule of thumb to go by when you're unsure if two finishes are compatible is to apply a coat of primer. Also, when latex paint is applied to a primed surface it will last that much longer, appear more uniform and will usually require only one coat of paint for proper coverage.
Can you use latex primer over oil base enamel?
Not directly. You will need to use a primer made to adhere to oil and will accept a latex topcoat.

Can you put epoxy sealant over latex paint on cement floor?
I spoke to the one paint dealer I have confidence in and was told yes I can do exactly that i.e. put a latex (not sure about alkyd) two part epoxy coating over my concrete latex floor paint. First I sanded the surface to get a better bond and my next move is to clean the floor. As a suggestion be sure you have a concrete paint on the floor. If not you could have other problems which I encountered originally i.e. paint not adherring to the concrete in the presence of water. USE ARMORGUARD EPOXY FLOOR COATING, It will last forever, its 100% Solid, No fillers, ODORLESS and NON TOXIC, Its also made with MICROBAN to prevent mold, mildew or algae, look on www.ecosmartepoxysystems.com for more information
How do you paint over acrylic paint with epoxy paint?
I,v got over 20 years inpainting. application, you know...learned it the hard way. painting over epoxy is always tricky.( I,m talking about the two part epoxy) if you start with epoxy and stick with epoxy, usually you'lldo just fine. any kind of latex paintwill lift off of epoxy. oil paint will stick a bit longer, but that's coming up to.thewhole point of epoxy is to have nothingstickto its surfaceso thatit cleans easy.you can try and strip it, messy and time consuming. now your mixing chemicals. one tip.. take a piece of sand paper, sand a small area. if what you sanded leaves dust.. I would paint that. if balls up or rolls? its the same as painting over rubber. hopes this helps.
