Can I apply paint directly over a semi-gloss paint?
No. Semi-gloss
paint must be dulled to a flat finish by sanding*,
allowing proper adhesion. Removing or disturbing old paint
from interior or exterior surfaces by sanding, scraping,
abrading or other means may produce dust, debris or fumes
that contain lead. Exposure to lead dust, debris or fumes
may cause brain damage or other adverse health effects,
especially in children and pregnant women. Structures
built before 1978 should be tested by a licensed inspector
prior to removing or disturbing old paint.
