Egg tempera requires another ingredient besides egg yolk and pigment to prevent it from drying too quickly. This other ingredient could be vinegar or wine.
Yes, you can put polyurethane paint over eggshell in latex or eggshell in oil.
Yes, eggshell paint is good for doors.
No, because eggshell paint is intended only for indoor use, like kitchens or bathrooms. For exteriors, use paint with a satin finish.
You can, but don't need to use additional primer.
Two entirely different things. Acrylic is a type of water-based paint (usually latex/acrylic) and eggshell refers to the sheen (ie flat, satin, eggshell, semi-gloss, etc...). Also some people assume eggshell refers to a certain color, however with many paint companies, the term "eggshell" refers to the sheen texture (feels like an egg shell) and not the color of an egg (which, of course, depends entirely on the type of bird if came from). :)

In relation to paint finishes, the term "eggshell" refers to a type of finish that has a slight sheen and is more durable than flat paint. It has a subtle shine similar to the surface of an eggshell.
Yes, you can paint an eggshell finish over a semigloss finish, but proper preparation is crucial. First, clean the semigloss surface to remove any dirt or grease, then lightly sand it to create a better bond for the eggshell paint. Finally, apply a primer if needed, followed by the eggshell paint for optimal results. This process helps ensure good adhesion and a smooth finish.
no it isn't
I would recommed satin or eggshell. Satin and eggshell paint or both easy to wipe/clean and better to withstand multiple cleanings.
Yes, you can change the color of an eggshell using artist acrylic paint. First, ensure the eggshell is clean and dry, then apply a layer of acrylic paint using a brush or sponge. Allow it to dry completely before adding additional coats for a richer color. Keep in mind that the paint may alter the eggshell's texture and appearance.
Red and Yellow to make orange (use more yellow than red). Than add some white.

Yes, as long as the surface is free of dirt, wax and grease, and the eggshell and satin are both the same type, ie latex or oil, then you should have no trouble at all painting a satin sheen paint over an eggshell. Also, if the base is water based and the topcoat is oil, that will work fine too.
