Test Oil

How do you test a painted surface to determine if the paint is oil-based or water-based?
If the previously applied paint is oil-based, I know that water-based paint will not properly adhere to the surface. The painted surface is in good shape, so I do not want to apply a primer (I am replacing a few boards of exterior siding, and i need to apply the new paint, which was color-matched to the original paint, to previously painted boards adjacent to the new siding for blending and nail hold repairs). The previously applied paint is of unknown origin or manufacture.
you can use Goof Off or Oops brand of solvents, they remove water base and not oil base. clean rag-oil base/dirty rag-water base.Now lets address the facts about changing top coats. On exteriors never put oil base over latex .you can however put latex over oil base. Water base paints will adhere to oil base paints as long as it is not glossy. If its glossy then sand or use a primer formulated for glossy surfaces. When in doubt prime. If the job is worth doing then error on the side of caution
