Is this latex paint on an exterior plastered brick wall? Use oil
base paint.

hi there. It was painted 8 months ago by another painter. Now it
has
peeled right down to the plaster. This is a bedroom, brick
house...The
plaster is dry not wet..and when it was painted the walls were
totally
dry no moisture.
