Yes, you can apply chalk wax over latex paint, but it's important to ensure that the latex paint has fully cured before doing so. Lightly sanding the surface can help improve adhesion. Once the wax is applied, it will create a protective finish and enhance the color and texture of the painted surface. Always test on a small area first to ensure compatibility and desired results.

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.

How do you paint over beeswax?

It depends on how much wax there is. Are you talking about small amounts, like crayon marks? You can try removing it with a solvent like Goo Gone. There are some primers that claim to work over glossy surfaces, including crayon marks. Check with your local paint store or home improvement store. Look for brands like Kilz or Zinsser Bulls-Eye 1-2-3. Read the back of the paint cans to see what these primers will cover.

What will happen if you put spray paint on wax?

It beads up and doesn't dry. It you touch it it will wipe off. It may leave a faint stain, but it won't show up strongly. If you put wax on spray paint then it will make it hard to remove the spray paint and it will also make the spray paint look glossier.
