Can I paint semi gloss over flat paint? Thanks!

A semi conductor is not a good conductor or a good insulator.
It could be:Fuligin - A color darker than black.Not a color, but a black hole, since it absorbs every single drop of light and everything else.Nothing. Black is the darkest color.All of these answers are correct.
Because a semi colon replaces the word "but" which means it's more complex.
A semi-log graph is used in plotting exponential graphs. It is used in graphing data with a very large range on one axis which does not follow a linear progression.
The paper becomes semi-transparent.
semi gloss
yes you can, prep it first light rub down and apply two coats of the flat paint.
Yes. You can paint semi-gloss latex paint over flat latex paint. It is not advised to paint over any latex with any oil-based paint. Nor is it advised to try and paint over semi-gloss paint with any other finish without first de-glossing the finish and priming.
Yes. You'll want to ensure that the surface is clean and gloss free prior to applying the flat topcoat.
No, you can dull satin or semi-gloss but not the reverse.
Base paint is also known as flat paint, or flat wall paint, or matt paint and is a latex paint. Flat paint is just that, flat or dull with no sheen at all. Semi-gloss is an enamel that dries very hard and can be found in a low sheen (satin) a medium sheen (semi-gloss) and a high sheen (high gloss) Flat paint is usually used on walls and ceilings where as semi-gloss is used in kitchens, bathrooms, doors an jambs because it helps hold back the inherent moisture in those areas.
Yes, it will.
Satin is lower gloss than semi-gloss paint. Paint finishes in order of decreasing gloss are: * Gloss * Semi-gloss * Satin/Low sheen * Flat Some manufacturers call Satin/Low sheen finish Eggshell, and others regard this as a finish between Satin/Low sheen and Flat paint. The higher the gloss finish the easier it is to clean, the higher its durabillity and the more it shows surface imperfections.
As long as you find that aesthetically pleasing, I don't see why not.
That is up to you. The more gloss a paint has in it, the easier it is to clean and the more abuse it can take. For the most part, ceilings are only flat.
