This is my 2nd attempt at painting my recently skimmed bathroom and getting same results.
First was a un-thinned primer which peeled right off, once dry, back to the plaster after i applied a bathroom paint.
So scrapped the whole lot off.
2nd attempt i did some research and bought dulux super matt which i thinned 50/50. First coat seemed solid once dry so applied a second coat but i can peel the whole lot off in strips.
I should say i didnt let the paint fully cure cos wanted to test it - but should it do this? You can see from the picture that the plaster has got damp which i think is the reason it peels off.

Spent hours painting and scrapping it all off, and looks like i’ll have to do again.
The skim is months dry and was even sanded down before painting.
Am i doing something wrong or will a mist coat peel when wet?
