Pros reveal easy-to-follow techniques to stop paint peeling and keep it looking good for longer
Briefly

Peeling paint signals issues in preparation or application. Poor preparation, such as inadequately preparing the surface, often leads to poor adhesion of paint, resulting in peeling. Incorrect application methods, such as applying paint too thickly, can further contribute to the problem. Additionally, painting on surfaces that retain moisture can lead to peeling as well. Understanding these factors is crucial to executing a successful paint job that remains intact over time.
To stop paint peeling, you need to understand the underlying causes to help prevent it from happening in the first place. Typically, this is something to do with the surface or the application of the paint.
Getting your preparation right for any DIY project is crucial for success, and a paint job is no different. Poor preparation is a common cause of peeling paint; when the surface underneath the paint isn't prepared properly, the paint may not adhere correctly.
When paint is applied in thick layers, it can affect its ability to adhere to the surface properly, causing it to peel off.
Painting directly onto a surface that holds moisture is a poor choice, but unfortunately, the moisture problem may not always be obvious.
