Absolutly! You just have to check to see if the primer is first an exterior primer and if it will stick to glossy surfaces. You can lightly sand to rough up the surface or just clean the surface and apply the primer. For oil based primers I would recommend Beauti-tone's fast dry oil primer or Zinsser's oil based cover stain primer.
What else can I help you with?
Can lacquer thinner be used with red oxide primmer?
Well, honey, technically you can use lacquer thinner with red oxide primer, but I wouldn't recommend it unless you want a hot mess on your hands. Lacquer thinner is pretty strong stuff and might not play nice with the primer, so proceed with caution and maybe do a test patch first. Just remember, I warned ya!
Does oil based stain require a polyurethane finish?
No. You can use lacquer on oil too. Varnish will work well with oil stain as do any of the wax finishes
Should you use enamel or urethane to paint your car?
Yes, that was the original intention of urethane.
Can you use Oil base primer over water base lacquer on wood?
You can paint water base paint over an oil based primer after allowing sufficient drying time. Check the instructions on the label because drying times can range anywhere from an hour to 24 hours.
What is the difference between lacquer and paint thinner?
Lacquer thinner evaporates quicker. It is cleaner or leaves less of a film than paint thinner. Lacquer thinner will thin most solvent based paint but paint thinner shouldn't be used to thin Lacquer. Lacquer dries from the surface painted out and enammal dries from the surface of the paint down to the surface painted. Using the wrong thinner affects how the paint dries and may affect the final finish.
Can you paint enamel over lacquer on a car?
Yes. But you can't do the reverse. So if your primer is lacquer-based you can spray an over-coat of enamel on the top.

Can water-based polyurethane be applied over oil-based polyurethane?
Yes, water-based polyurethane can be applied over oil-based polyurethane after proper preparation and sanding.
Is polyurethane oil based?
Yes, polyurethane is typically oil-based.
What alternative finishes can be used instead of polyurethane for wood furniture?
Some alternative finishes for wood furniture include shellac, lacquer, and oil-based finishes like tung oil or linseed oil. These finishes provide different looks and levels of protection compared to polyurethane.
Should you use enamel or urethane to paint your car?
Yes, that was the original intention of urethane.
Can you apply oil-based polyurethane over water-based polyurethane?
No, it is not recommended to apply oil-based polyurethane over water-based polyurethane as they are not compatible and may not adhere properly. It is best to stick with the same type of polyurethane for a consistent and durable finish.
Can I apply oil-based polyurethane over water-based polyurethane?
No, it is not recommended to apply oil-based polyurethane over water-based polyurethane as they are not compatible and may not adhere properly. It is best to stick with the same type of polyurethane for a consistent and durable finish.
What are the differences between applying water-based polyurethane over oil-based polyurethane?
When applying water-based polyurethane over oil-based polyurethane, the main differences lie in the drying time, odor, and color. Water-based polyurethane dries faster, has a milder odor, and may not yellow as much over time compared to oil-based polyurethane.
Can I apply water-based polyurethane over oil-based polyurethane?
Yes, you can apply water-based polyurethane over oil-based polyurethane, but it is important to properly prepare the surface and follow the manufacturer's instructions for best results.
Can I apply water-based polyurethane over a surface that has been previously coated with oil-based polyurethane?
No, it is not recommended to apply water-based polyurethane over a surface that has been previously coated with oil-based polyurethane. The two types of polyurethane do not adhere well to each other, which can lead to issues with the finish. It is best to sand down the surface and remove the oil-based polyurethane before applying the water-based polyurethane.
