Watching a neighbor in Phoenix try to paint over old oil-based trim with latex without sanding...
It's going to peel in sheets within a month, I guarantee it. I learned the hard way on my own 1950s house that you need to either sand it down to bare wood or use a proper bonding primer like Stix. Has anyone found a better primer for that specific job?

Total paint fail waiting to happen. Stix is the gold standard for that nightmare job. I tried a different primer once and it was a total waste of money. Sanding is the only other real fix, but that dust gets everywhere.

My own house looked like a science project gone wrong when I tried that. Stix is the only thing that worked for me.
