The reasons for the problem:  
  • Surface preparation was not appropriate.
  • The appropriate sealer was not applied under the topcoat.
  • The surface underneath is loose and does not have the required adhesion or water moisture and permeates through the back of the wall.
Solution:  
  • In the Interior problems, use the flat edge of paint scraper to scrape off any flaky and cracked paint from the wall.
  • If the level of peeling surfaces is deep, it can be repaired using the same material as chalk or cement.
  • Apply a layer of primer then spray with suitable acrylic putty.
  • Apply a layer of undercoat.
  • Apply one or two layers of topcoat.
