I learned a trick from an old contractor who was my landlord when I first was married...

If you spray the surface with shellac, it will seal it and the paint will stick to it... the shellac is inexpensive and a little goes a long way. Your FIRST coat of paint would also have been 4 gallons!!!

It is also good for sealing kitchens which typically have a lot of grease in the paint... would bleed through the new paint if you don't seal it!
