interior paint fiasco

I would go and a scrape and sand to remove as much of the latex as possible down to the enamel. Then you need to prime with an alkyd/oil based undercoater but not a quick dry type (sometimes called stain killers)as they dry to brittle and will compound your problem. The finish paint can be either acrylic or oil based but oil is not avaiable everywhere and it will be gone from what I hear next year anyway so you may be safer with a premium acrylic enamel product. The Pro Claasic semi gloss from Sherwin Williams would be a good choice. This is not a 100% sure thing as some peeling may still occur but it is very good way to go.

Hope this helps out.
