Numerous primers on the market will do the job of covering peeling paint. The best primers for peeling paint are bonding or adhesive primers that essentially glue the edges of peeling paint back to the subsurface while providing a smooth, even surface for the new paint coat.

While it may surprise you, the best time to paint the interior of your home is not during the warm open-window months, but rather during the late fall or even winter. This is because the cooler months offer ideal humidity conditions for painting. Lower humidity and cooler temperatures means faster drying time and better paint adhesion. 

When you compare limewash versus paint, the drawbacks of limewash include its relatively limited durability compared to synthetic paints, often requiring reapplication in high-traffic areas or harsh weather conditions. Moreover, applying limewash requires skill and patience to avoid issues like streaks or uneven coverage. Limewash also comes with some color variety using natural pigments, but you have fewer options than if you go with paint.

Paint itself isn’t necessarily bad if you see bubbles, but bubbling signals a problem with how the paint is adhering to the surface. Left unaddressed, these bubbles can burst and cause peeling or flaking, which compromises the appearance and durability of the finish. In some cases, bubbling can reveal deeper issues like moisture damage or surface contamination. If bubbles form during application, fix the underlying cause before repainting for a lasting, smooth result.
