Not if the melamine paint is oil (alkyd) based.
Melamine paint is very expensive as you know and they do come in colors. You don't have to use Melamine and oil based paint is just as good (although a little smelly.) Melamine smells terrible anyway. Oil based should be used (be sure if there is any paint in your bathroom already that it's oil based and not latex. If latex, then you have some sanding to do. You sand to rough up the surface. It's also good to put a white primer on the walls after sanding so you oil base will stay on properly. Oil base and Melamine are used because of the dampness of the bathroom and usually this is also used in kitchens. My husband only paints the tub surround with Melamine and the rest of the white woodwork with oil based paint. Marcy
you can paint over latex paint with latex enamel.
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.

Some enamels and melamine paints are. They usually say "Bath and Kitchen" on the label.
Wood veneer can be painted over on kitchen cabinets. The paint should be a latex that is not of acrylic nature. Oil paint will only smear and not dry evenly.

No, but the damp location would soon ruin it anyway.
Can you restate your question are you asking what is the latex paint or are you asking when was the invention of the latex paint.
The best brand of paint for kitchen cabinets is an oil-based paint. Oil-based paints are the most durable and have a very high resistance to water, moisture, and other liquids. They also take longer to dry than latex or acrylic paints so they can be used on more intricate surfaces such as woodwork.
What other surfaces can I use latex dry erase board paint on besides a wall, wood or metal?
If you mean latex paint, none. Latex is a water based paint and has no toxic fumes.
