Try using paint stripper that is sold in Lowe's or Home Depot. You also may need to resort to heavy duty sandpaper with a lot of effort.

Can you use latex paint over an epoxy painted wall. and what steps are needed?

You can definitely use latex paint over epoxy. In fact, it is recommended to use latex over epoxy by the paint manufacturers, rather than using epoxy over epoxy. The latex adheres better and if you then want to use epoxy next time you paint, you have a nice coat of latex between the layers. If you use epoxy over epoxy, often the paint will just peel off in layers once some time passes (and sometimes right away).

How do you use Milk Paint to decorate your furniture?

Milk Paint is best applied to unpainted wood as it tends to shrink quite a bit. You may get away with lightly sanding your piece and then applying milk paint. Do a test in an inconspicuous area.Are you making your own milp paint or wanting to use ready made paint?There are lots of good recipes on the net, but basicalli it is skim milk, hydrated lime , boiled linseed oil, chalk powder and water.Experiment using skim milk powder to obtain a thicker paint for various effects, crackles etc. The thicker you apply the paint the more likely you are to get a crackle surface.For a smooth even finish it is best to apply numerous very thin coats,milk pain becomes less translucent as it dries.Milk paint gives a fabulous Matt finish but is not washable and marks tend to become part of the surface so please take this into account when repainting things such as armrests etc.

How do you make a clear air soft pistol look more like a fake gun?

I would paint it. But don't use oil or latex based paint, it won't work. The best paint you could use is milk based paint but it is usually more expensive. However I will let you know that if you use milk based paint correctly it will never come off. Milk has powerful bonding agents in it that will hold on tight to whatever to stick it to.

Why are you warmer with several layers of clothes than a heavy jacket?

It is known as the layering system. Several thin layers trap more insulating air between the layers. If you start to sweat, you take off a layer or two to cool down, and put the layers back on to warm up again. If you take off a heavy jacket, you will not have the layers underneath to prevent chilling. Usually, a heavy jacket means either being too hot or too cold when active outdoors.

Role of formic acid in paint remover?

Formic acid is typically used as a stabilizing agent in paint removers to prevent the degradation of other active ingredients. It can also help to increase the penetration of the remover into the paint layers, making it more effective in stripping off the paint. Additionally, formic acid has some mild stripping properties itself, contributing to the overall performance of the paint remover.
