 There are different kinds of coatings, typically Oil -based Alkyd and Water Emulsion Latex. It was a custom to use Oil-based Alkyd paints well into the 80's, now the industry is mostly composed of Water based Latex. If a house has Oil-based Alkyd on its Interior/ Exterior surface (which the older homes often do here in Hawaii), then it is mandatory to fully Prime with a sealer Primer before painting with the commonly used Water Emulsion Latex paint. If this step is skipped, it's like the saying "Oil and Water don't mix", the paint will definitely peal. Have a professional check and advice on what product to use. To ensure a long lasting Exterior paint job here in Hawaii the house should be Mildew treated/ Washed once every 1-2 years with a maintenance to high UV areas.
