Yes, prime with a 100% acrylic high adhesion primer, then coat with either a water based or oil based enamel paint for durability.
Yes, but use a good primer first
A wood Primer is required to coat the wood before the paint is applied. The Primer seals the wood and is better suited to being painted as the wood alone will soak up the paint causing it to dry too quickly and peel.
Paint can be applied over varnish, but it needs to be a compatible type of paint for the type of varnish, and the surface needs to be prepared by removing loose material, dirt and sanding. If it is not a compatible paint the surface needs to be etch primed. Contact a local paint supplier for advice.
theres 2 ways you can lightly sand over it. it give the paint some texture to hold on too. are you can kilt over it and that will allow you to paint over it
Most paint dries faster on wood.
If you paint over the "weathered" paint, it will chip and cause the stain to come off. Also, the stain needs a clean sanded surface in order for the wood to absorb it. Otherwise, there is no reason to use stain.
Yes, but it would have to be floating engineered wood.
Absolutely.
of corse you can! it's not common practice but if your floor is sound it should be fine
yes
Engineered wood floor is essentially a thin wood veneer over a plywood substrate. It is much better than just a normal floor because it is more durable.
According to my research the difference between engineered wood and laying hard wood down is the difficulty. Laying down hard wood is harder than engineered wood.
yes, but it will slide over the years so I would not
Wood veneer can be painted over on kitchen cabinets. The paint should be a latex that is not of acrylic nature. Oil paint will only smear and not dry evenly.
To make a white bookcase, I would start with wood. Use the wood to make the bookcase you want with the right number of shelves. After it has been construted, you can buy white paint and paint it.
Yes, you can.
wood that was engineered from wood waste
Engineered wood floors are composed of multiple layers of thin hardwood that a cross-layered, glued and pressed together. Thickness ranges from three to 12 layers. Inner layers are composed of hardwoods or a hardwood and plywood combination. Outer layers are made of hardwood veneers for extended wear. Engineered wood floors are available in virtually any wood species and are more impervious to water damaged than regular wood flooring. This product may be installed directly over concrete slabs or may be stapled over a plywood subfloor. Click lock engineered flooring featuring a locking tongue and groove system is gaining popularity.
