Clean the b.b. first with soap and water.

If the b.b. have been painted already , you can directly paint over them.

If the surface is very glossy you can use Gripper a superb primer from Glidden.

If they are coated with p.u. or stain use Gripper.

2-in-1 paint and primer on fresh drywall?

There are several products now available that work as both primer and top coat. I have been told by people I trust in the business, that these products are good and time saving. However, when I paint the home I live in, I still do things the old fashioned way. Primer and two top coats; baseboards and trim caulked and painted; top quality paint (not contractor's grade); that sort of thing.

How should I prepare the surface of my kitchen cabinets for painting?

Use gripper as a primer before painting your cabinets. I made the mistake of putting paint over cabinets with out gripper and the paint easily chipped and would even scratch with as little as a fingernail when opening a door or drawer. The next time I painted cabinets I used gripper and after 5 years the cabinets still look like new.


Can you use an oil kilz then use latex paint on wall board?

yes Yes, an oil paint will adhere to latex. It doesn't work in reverse, latex will not adhere to oil that is dry, but oil adheres to dry latex. If you were a purist, though, you would sand down the woodwork before repainting it. That would give the best result.
