Can you put oil paint over latex?
As long as you sand & prime first, in most cases just latex primer applied before painting with the latex paint. If the old paint is really old, be careful about sanding, it may contain lead.
Can you use enamel over latex?
Do you mean oil based enamel, or alkyd enamel? It can, but you will have to prime it with a barrier coat of compatible primer for the new paint to stick to it. I would not recommend it though. If the latex paint has been around for a long time, you have a better chance of having your new paint last. Is this inside or outside? Is it exposed to temperature extremes? The latex paint will be able to expand and contract more than the oil based enamel. If you can imagine putting paint on a latex glove, letting it dry, then putting the glove on (stretching it) then you will have a good idea (although much more extreme) of what you are asking the paint to do. If you really must put an oil based enamel on top of latex. Use a good oil based enamel like Kilz or Zinnzer Bullseye before you paint it. After you put the barrier coat on, you will have a limited time to get the other paint on....check the directions.

Can you paint rustoleum over latex?
Oh, absolutely! Painting Rust-Oleum over latex is possible, but you'll want to make sure the latex paint is fully cured and clean before applying the Rust-Oleum. Just remember to lightly sand the latex paint and apply a primer before painting with Rust-Oleum for the best results. Just like in painting, it's all about layering and taking your time to create something beautiful.
Can you use acyd paint over latex paint?
If you really want to ... yes. It might cause some issues later but should work for the most part as long as you apply a thin layer of paint. Acrylic house paint is normally a latex paint, so there should be no problem painting over a latex with acrylic. The only exception is if it is a solvent based acrylic silicone type paint. In this case, the coating will melt the latex paint, and if overworked while rolling, mix on the surface, which is normally a driveway or floor, discoloring the top coat.
