If raw cedar exterior board was painted with an oil-based stain with full color 15 years ago can you paint over it with a water-based stain?

Generally, yes, although the water-based stain may run a small amount after application if the wood still has a lot of oil present in it. After 15 years, it should be okay.

Can you stain a deck on top of oil paint?

You should check the label on the specific product you're planning to use. If the label states it will adhere to wood with an existing coating, then it's fine to use even over an oil-based stain. (This is because once thoroughly dried, oil-based stains behave the same as water-based stains.) Some products, however, will require the existing stain to be stripped from the wood, or to apply a primer coat over the existing finish before applying new stain.


Can you apply an polyacrylic water base finish to an oil base stain?

I am doing that right now. It says on the can that it can be applied over an oil based stain...but the stain may continue to "amber" under the coating. I decided to go with the polyacrylic because a friend told me that polyurethane yellows over time. I don't know if that is true...but that is what I decided to do. So far, the acrylic is going over and drying over the oil based stain without any problems.
