You could give it a shot. Try using a spray paint for plastic. Or, use a multipurpose primer to adhere to the cove base. If the adheres ok, you are able to use a regular latex paint.

Can you use chlorinated rubber base paint over synthetic rubber base paint?

Absolutely not and you should use the same manufacturer of the paint you have on there also. Sorry you can only use a chlorinated rubber base paint on a rubber base paint. If you try to paint with the chlorinated rubber base on top of a synthetic rubber base paint it will probably peel like a bad sunburn.


Why would you use cove base vs straight base?

A cove base allows covering of uneven floor edges at the wall such as unevenly cut vinyl flooring. It also adjust for unlevel flooring along long expanses of wall because the cove can flex with the "ups and downs" and flexes against the floor almost like a squeegee tight fit up against glass. Cove base also "fills" the corner and therefore is good to keep the corner clean and not allowing dirt to build up in the corner. Staight base is a more clean modern look than cove base, but requires much more carefull installs of flooring at the wall to floor corner. Straight base does not cover errors as well as cove base, and it does go up and down with an unlevel floor as well as a a cove base. It works well with low pile carpet because the bottom edge of the base "tucks down" into the edge of the carpet. The carpet closes the gap between the base and the carpet. Straight base is less frequently specified for hard floors.

Can you paint acrylic enamel paint over base coat paint?

If the base coat used in your project is water base then yes, you bet you can. If there is any chance that the base coat used was an oil base paint then you cannot paint directly over it. The acrylic enamel will not adhere to the oil base paint and will begin to peel off as soon as it is dry. In which case a coat of primer is in order.
