You need to wash the house and then repaint the areas or whole house once it drys thoroughly. Sherwin makes a Lexon primer and Resilense base coat that is guaranteed not to peal or they will warranty it.
I did my designer and the paint is great stuff.
you can have hairline cracks that can saturate the wall and cause peeling.
Good luck

You' are right on with your advise.
Loxon is a primer that is used on green (Uncured masonry) We used it for new shopping centers, Walgreens etc. The builders didn't want to wait for the masonry to cure, because the got a draw after the building was painted. That said 11yrs ago I primed my house with Loxon before painting, there is not a crack or a bubble in my home. After 52 yrs in the business I also agree that Sherwin Williams is the "BEST" Len
