Is Using minwax Polycrylic clear coat over latex paint fine?
You cannot paint over slightly tacky latex paint with a water based polycyclic finish. You should always wait until the latex paint is thoroughly dry before painting over it.
What type of paint is best to use on top of enamel paint?
Wipe the surface with some denatured alcohol on a rag. If the paint melts, it's a latex, if it just cleans the surface it's oil. After cleaning and deglossing by sanding, or if oil based, chemically deglossing, coat the surface with a like product. If it's oil based and you want to change it to oil, apply an oil-based primer as a bridge, then apply a high quality acrylic paint over the primer.
Do you need to sand after applying the stain killing primer or can you apply oil-based paint directly after that?
It depends what surface is. Usually you can apply oil based paint if surface is smooth.
Why are decals coming loose on corn hole boards with polycrylic water based finish applied over as instructed by decal mfg?
Not giving the paint underneath enough time to cure would be one cause, another is the decal is not a quality made vinyl decal, resulting in it bot adhering to the paint underneath.
Can you apply oil based deck stain over acrylic stain?
Yes.
