Yes but there is no guarantee that the colour on the surface will not streak or show a different colour through. Added to this is the fact in many houses in particular there are spray polishes used. These become airborne and do make their way to pained surfaces even if you don't actually polish that surface directly. Its a safer bet with same colour paint to give it a light rub with sand paper , then wipe with a clean damp cloth and then the satin coat should adhere to a much better standard

How do you prep walls that have been painted with a satin finish paint if you want to paint again with a satin finish paint?

The paint finish doesn't significantly change the surface preparation necessary. If the paint is the same type (water based going over waterbased or enamel over enamel) then the preparation is simply: * cleaning, * remove loose material, * fill any holes or hollows, * sanding and * wiping, If you are changing the type of paint (eg: painting waterbased over enamel) you may need to use an etch primer to "key" the surface and give the new paint a texture to grip onto after sanding, and otherwise prepare as above.

Can you paint high gloss acrylic over high gloss acrylic without sanding it?

It is never a good idea to paint anything high gloss without sanding first. You don't need to sand clear though the old paint, but the new paint needs something to hold onto. If there is nothing but a smooth, shiny surface, the new paint will probably run if the surface is not horizontal, and then chip and flake very early on. Always run a piece of sandpaper or a sanding block, 150 grit is good, over the surface. Why do something twice?


Can satin finish paint be used on top of eggshell paint?

Yes, as long as the surface is free of dirt, wax and grease, and the eggshell and satin are both the same type, ie latex or oil, then you should have no trouble at all painting a satin sheen paint over an eggshell. Also, if the base is water based and the topcoat is oil, that will work fine too.
