What is the best paint for bathroom ceiling subject to high moisture?
Well first you would use Kilzprimer you have to prime the drywall first then any latex is what contractors use.Kilzprimer is OK, but expensive and unnecessary unless you have stains on a wall or ceiling you need to cover before paint. Any good Latex basedPVA primer is good on newly installed drywall.
How do you paint varnished cabinets?
Scuff them up with steel wool or sand paper first. Oil paint can be put on directly. Enamel latex should adhere alright. For regular latex I would use an oil based primer first.
Can you use enamel over latex?
Do you mean oil based enamel, or alkyd enamel? It can, but you will have to prime it with a barrier coat of compatible primer for the new paint to stick to it. I would not recommend it though. If the latex paint has been around for a long time, you have a better chance of having your new paint last. Is this inside or outside? Is it exposed to temperature extremes? The latex paint will be able to expand and contract more than the oil based enamel. If you can imagine putting paint on a latex glove, letting it dry, then putting the glove on (stretching it) then you will have a good idea (although much more extreme) of what you are asking the paint to do. If you really must put an oil based enamel on top of latex. Use a good oil based enamel like Kilz or Zinnzer Bullseye before you paint it. After you put the barrier coat on, you will have a limited time to get the other paint on....check the directions.
Can you use an oil kilz then use latex paint on wall board?
yes Yes, an oil paint will adhere to latex. It doesn't work in reverse, latex will not adhere to oil that is dry, but oil adheres to dry latex. If you were a purist, though, you would sand down the woodwork before repainting it. That would give the best result.
Can you mix enamel and latex paint together?
A primers is basically used to seal a surface and give the top coat "tooth". A primer should be chosen for the surface it is going on, oil based primers adhere better to surfaces like bare wood, slick finishes, and old oil based paint. Once the primer has dried any kind or paint may be applied as a top coat.
What equipment is used to spray oil based paints on interior cabinets?
I am doing my windows with oil primer then latex enamel top coat. I bought a $25 HVLP gravity feed touch up gun from menards, it works very well with both. you have to thin most paints I did 5 little plastic spoons of water per quart for the latex and 6 or 7 spoonfulls of paint thinner(mineral spirits) for the oil primer. Very good results! Although I would rather use water base primer for clean up reasons(I can't use water base primer because of stain bleed through). I am using Sherman Williams Pro block oil primer & dutchboy latex enamel semi-gloss trim paint. Hope this helps

Can you use a latex primer under tinners red?
All the information I read on Tinners paint refers to it as 'anti-rust' exterior metal paint . - I certainly wouldn't put a latex primer on anything outside. I would use Kilz original as a primer.
Can you still use primer that froze?
Is it latex primer? Since you say that it froze, I would have to assume so. The answer is no. If it looks like cottage cheese, it is worthless.
Can you paint oil Base paint over latex primer?
paint it with a universal primer such as "BLOCKER" brand first Yes, you can. My preference is to use oil base primer under latex (water base) paint, because in my experience the oil base primer lasts longer. It stays stuck to the wood longer. I think latex primer is basically bogus. I have wasted a lot of time using latex primer and it comes loose and I have to sand it all off and use oil base primer. Latex primer does not work. Just like latex paint sticks poorly to bare wood. Latex paint does not have much "stick" (also called "tack"). It is a thin sheet of rubber, and there is very little "tack" to it to keep it glued to the wood. Latex peels off readily, once you put a knife under an edge.
Will latex paint cover acrylic craft paint on walls?
I would use a good primer first.
