It is best to use an exterior primer outside, rather than an interior. While, the interior paint will work, it does not have the same protection such as UV protection, and fungicide protection that is found in exterior paints.
Exterior paints in general are more durable than interior paints, and also release more irritating fumes when they are drying, so yes, you can use them for the interior, but just be sure you have lots of open windows when you do.
Yes, exterior paints can be also used as an interior paints also. Unlike interior paints, exterior paints are made for harsh weather conditions hence it can withstand damage up to a greater limit.
Can easily be applied in the interiors.
Can you use interior paint as a primer and use exterior paint as the finish coat?
Yes. Interior primer can be used for exterior paint jobs, as long as you overcoat the interior primer with an exterior paint. No problem.
Yes
You shouldn't. Primers are made to adhere to a surface and/or bind loose particles. Interior paint, and some exterior paints for that matter, could easily become detached from wood and stucco over time and won't hold back tannin stains on wood. If you are painting over a clean, sound surface that's over a month old, then you can get away with using two coats of 100% acrylic exterior paint.
Sure. You can mix them. Why would you? It will not help prime the walls or wood. The primer coat needs to be applied separately to be effective.
That is not your best idea, most old interior furniture has old varnish or stain on it. The older furniture finishes were oil or alcohol based. Drywall primer these days is a latex (water) base and will not adhere.

No, you should not use any exterior coating product on an interior surface, for a couple of reasons: (1) Exterior products are made to expand and contract with temperature extremes, so they are more rubbery - they will not stand up to the greater abuse of interior use; and (2) Most exterior products contain mildewcides and fungicides, which put off toxic fumes - indoors, these fumes can be concentrated and could cause illness.
It depends what kind of finish you will put on it, and whether it will be indoors our out: Indoors, latex paint: use latex wood primer Indoors, varnish: no primer required but can be stained, may need multiple coats Indoors, oil base: use an interior oil base primer Outdoors, latex paint: use an exterior latex wood primer Outdoors, varnish: no primer required but can be stained, use exterior varnish Outdoors, oil base: use an exterior oil base primer It depends what kind of finish you will put on it, and whether it will be indoors our out: Indoors, latex paint: use latex wood primer Indoors, varnish: no primer required but can be stained, may need multiple coats Indoors, oil base: use an interior oil base primer Outdoors, latex paint: use an exterior latex wood primer Outdoors, varnish: no primer required but can be stained, use exterior varnish Outdoors, oil base: use an exterior oil base primer

Roof decking, exterior sheathing.
Staining cedar will always last longer than painting it. In either case the wood must be clean. Do not spray stain. If painting use two coats of primer and if using a oil base primer use a oil base topcoat.

Each exterior angle is 45 degrees (interior angle = 135 degrees).
Wood preservative is a chemical that will soak a good way into the wood surface and will have bacterial and fungicidal properties. It may also contain UV inhibitors and may be water repellent. The purpose of a wood preservative is to stop exposed wood form rotting. A wood primer is a chemical that is applied to the surface of the wood and is intended to adhere well to the wood surface on one side and any undercoat paint applied on top. Sometimes the primer contains components designed to fill the grain of the wood so that when sanded down a smooth finish is obtained (sometimes these grain fillers are used before the primer). The purpose of a primer is to ensure that the paint coat does not peel off painted wood.

It's recommended to bleach and power wash prior to painting the exterior of a home. A primer/sealer should be used on any bare wood or masonry and on any chalky surface however if the surface is clean and sound, a good quality paint should adhere without a problem.
If you use a 100% acrylic primer on bare drywall, you should have no problem with top coating it with any sheen wall paint. Many flats are self priming on bare drywall though, so you may be able to save some money there. Just ask the paint store what the recommended primer is to determine what the most economical solution is. For exterior work, use a block fill primer for bare block, a hot stucco primer for new masonry less than a month old with a pH of 13 or less (check with a pH pencil) or a 100% acrylic exterior primer for any bare wood surface or bare masonry surface over 30 days old.
