Can I paint over old paint?

However, if you’re transitioning from a dark wall color to a light one, you’ll want to use a primer first to save yourself from applying multiple coats for coverage. Also, if you’re moving from an <a href="https://www.angi.com/articles/types-of-paints-latex-vs-acrylic.htm">oil-based paint</a> to a water-based one and vice versa, you’ll want to use a primer. Don’t forget to spackle over any holes or dents before adding your new paint color.</p></div>

Q: Should bathroom ceiling paint be semi-gloss or satin?

• <div><p>Of the two sheens, <a href="https://www.angi.com/articles/satin-paint.htm">satin</a> is more resistant to moisture, whether it&rsquo;s from frequent cleaning or from the shower, and it dries quickly.
