Painting over oil based paint

Posted by Andy Smyth, on
I am redocorating and repainting kitchen/dining area walls. they were previously bright yellow oil based paint. I began painting over with Matt emulsion and after a few coats realised my mistake. What is the easiest way for me to rectify this? Is there a paint I can buy to paint over the whole lot as it is now? Thanks
