I am guessing this is on the floor. This is probably a two component carbon bond coating. This means it is chemical resistant to even ketones. To recoat, you must use another epoxy or urethane mixture. To prepare the surface, it must be wet sanded with at least 220 grit water paper. After a good sanding, the surface must be cleaned with some sorta tack cloth. If you use a waxed based tack, do not press hard. This will cause transfere of the bees wax to the surface and cause poor adhesion. Anyway, get the surface clean as possible. Make sure the humidity is below 50% before coating the area. If you try to coat with humidity aboue 50%, you may get bubbles in your coating. They are caused by the coating trying to cure quicker than the moisture can escape. I hope you can use this information.

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).

Was 1986 Chevrolet pickup painted with laquer paint and if so what sort of paint can i use without going down to bare metal?

Factory finish would have been an enamel paint. Even if it has been repainted, it is most likely enamel also. If the paint is old you can probably paint it with anything without it raising the old finish. If in doubt, you can spray a sealer on first and then the paint.

What is enamel paint and how is it different from other types of paint?

Enamel paint is a type of paint that dries to a hard, glossy finish. It is different from other types of paint, such as latex or acrylic, because it contains enamel, a type of resin that gives it its durability and high sheen. Enamel paint is often used for surfaces that require a tough, long-lasting finish, such as metal or wood furniture.
