Semi-gloss paint most times exposes the metal of your car. It can lead to rust and erosion issues. Gloss paint is definitely the way to go.
yes you can by using chrome polish but if you use on a car it wont come out good i only used it on my bike it was matte and now it is high gloss
The paint is on the exterior of the car.(example) I just painted the exterior of my house to raise its value
wipe off with laquer thinner
A sandblaster or sanding disc
It all depends on the type of car and what type of paint you want like chrome ,gloss, metallic ect.
If sand it you will sand all of the paint of not just the clear part.
The paint code should be part of the car's serial number. Phone a body shop or a car paint store such as Rondex or Maaco in Wpg and they should be able to help you with this.
I'm assuming your talking about house type paint and not something high end like car paint. If so, the answer is yes, but you must de-gloss it first to open pores in the old paint and give the new paint something to grip on too. To de-gloss, you can use sandpaper (150 grit and above is better) to "scuff" sand (just scratching the surface a bit, not really sanding anything off of the wall), or use a commercial de-glosser (such as krud kutter's "gloss off" etc...) which in most cases, you have to rinse off before repainting, but does do a more through job. If the old paint is really hard and shiny, you might have to de-gloss AND use an adhesive primer (also called "bonding" primer) first to insure your new paint sticks and doesn't peel.

Paint stripper. Works for both metal and wood for a car sand otherwise surface contaminants will take longer to remove than sanding painting combined.
No, you don't have to - satin black will work well on its own. Another way is to paint the car gloss black first, and this will highlight any imperfections in the preperation. When you have repaired and repainted the problem areas (in gloss) , the whole car can be wet sanded with 800 grit and finished in satin clear, of the same type, (and preferably brand as well ) as the black base-coat.
If you just want to paint the car the same color or adding a new bumper and want to match the paint, look in your door jam, there is a sticker there with the paint code.
