Just after a bit of advice on sorting out some peeling paint on a ceiling above a shower.

I've scraped off all the loose paint and a bit more, I could keep scraping, more will come off but it's not actually loose if you know what I mean.

A quick Google and Phil Beckwith (who always seems knowledgeable) recommends Zinsser Peel Stop, I was then going to go over the whole ceiling with Zinsser PermaWhite.

Does this sound like a good plan? A bathroom firm I know says they don't like bathroom type paints because if moisture gets behind them it can cause more problems, they recommended a plastic type ceiling but that sounded a bit extreme!

The bathroom is well ventilated and has insulation above so I can't do anything to improve that.

Any thoughts?
 
Got exactly the same issue, and also seen the suggestion of Peel Stop followed by PermaWhite (possibly with B-I-N® AQUA being used in between); so I'd also be interested in advice from those with experience.
