No. You should scape out the old stuff before putting in new. If the original stuff is failing, anything you put on top will be on a bad foundation. Nothing lasts with a bad foundation.
Yes
Caulking can be done either before or after painting depending on how steady a hand you have. Be sure to use a "Painter's" caulk, which is latex based. Silicone based chalks can NOT be painted over.
It's primer made with a latex or acrylic base. You can use any kind of paint over this.
If you really want to ... yes. It might cause some issues later but should work for the most part as long as you apply a thin layer of paint. Acrylic house paint is normally a latex paint, so there should be no problem painting over a latex with acrylic. The only exception is if it is a solvent based acrylic silicone type paint. In this case, the coating will melt the latex paint, and if overworked while rolling, mix on the surface, which is normally a driveway or floor, discoloring the top coat.
Yes.
To effectively paint over silicone caulk, you should first clean the caulk thoroughly with rubbing alcohol and then apply a primer specifically designed for use on silicone surfaces. Once the primer has dried, you can paint over the caulk with a high-quality acrylic latex paint. Make sure to follow the manufacturer's instructions for both the primer and paint to ensure a successful outcome.
No, it is not recommended to paint over silicone caulk as the paint may not adhere properly to the smooth and water-resistant surface of the caulk.

Since this Behr's premium transparent weatherproofing sealer is silicone fortified, you should wait at least six months prior to recoating with a 100% acrylic latex paint.
100% acrylic paint can definitely go over latex. Acrylic paint actually is the same thing as latex paint. Some manufacturers differentiate their products as 100% acrylic and also have a product called latex that is made of acrylic plus co binders and other additives. So while one is 100% acrylic and the other is a mixture they are both water based and considered latex.
Swimming caps can be made out of Latex or Silicone. Silicone is most preferred as it stretchs over the head easier, rather than latex caps.
To effectively clean silicone caulk and maintain its appearance and functionality, you can use a mixture of water and mild soap to gently scrub the caulk. Avoid using harsh chemicals or abrasive tools that can damage the silicone. Regular cleaning and proper maintenance will help preserve the caulk's appearance and effectiveness over time.

Yes.
Usually caulk is not intended to be terribly strong, it's intended to fill holes, sometimes ahead of painting. A pure silicone will be pretty strong. A siliconized latex is also pretty strong, and can usually be painted over. If you want strength, look into construction adhesives. They're strong enough for things like bonding subfloors to joists.
