I need advice about a paint problem.?

Over the last 15 years, our shower room has been painted several times with silk finish emulsion paint. Now, in places, it is peeling off, leaving bare plaster exposed. What would be the best way to deal with this?I need advice about a paint problem.?
STRIP IT ALL AWAY GET IT ALL FRESHLY PLASTERED THEN REPAINTI need advice about a paint problem.?
I'm sorry to say this but sounds as if you will have to peel the lot off and sand the wall down back to the plaster board ...long hard very annoying job
That happened in my bedroom, we painted it so many times that it just came off! We just pulle doff the bits that just came off, then we used a steamer to do the rest, crazy sounding, but its really works! Then you can just start again with the paint! or sort the walls out to tile! Hope this helps!
Peeling off the paint is impractical. One of the first things you have to do is not use the room for a few days so that it dries out. The steam from the shower is getting the wall and causing the paint and plaster to become loose and peel off. Once the room has had a chance to dry out, remove the loose and peeling paint and fill those areas with a wall spackling compound. Let it dry and sand it smooth. Then prime the walls with a good quality primer and paint with a good quality kitchen and bath paint. It will have higher gloss finish, making it much more resistant to moisture than a silk/satin finish paint.
Once you've done all that, make sure you use paint which is specifically designed for bathrooms - it has a higher resistance to steam and heat.
rip off and sand down all the flaking bits,you will need to fill in the area's that are damaged,and rub down the patch's and the rest ov the walls because if you don't like this finish then i would suggest after filling and rubbing down the walls,give it a coat of white emulsion to ceil the walls and then redo with the colour you want,it's alot of work but if you do it right the first time it will save you alot of hasle in the near future,i'm a painter so anymore trouble don't hesitate to contact me,have fun!!!!
The exiting paint needs removing totally. There is no point leaving any left. once the wall or walls are clean, rub down to key the walls for the new base coat. Use 120 grit paper as this will clean any old paint of the wall, key, and keep a nice finished surface. if you intend to repaint, you'll need to prime first, then repaint using a suitable paint for humid warm conditions. Go to you local decorators merchants, they will advise you on the best product to suit your required finish.
If the rest of the paint is solid and well bonded to the wall just peel the loose stuff off and fill the 'dips' with Artex or Easy Sand Filler and repaint! Use a wide blade spreader.





Only other options are to use wallpaper and a good qaulity PVA wallpaper paste or tiles!
