I finally understood why my paint kept peeling in the bathroom

I painted our guest bathroom in Toledo three times last year, and each time the paint started to peel near the shower after a couple of months. I was just using leftover interior paint from the living room. My neighbor saw it and asked, 'Did you use a paint with a mildewcide?' That was the moment I realized I was using the wrong paint type the whole time... I never knew bathroom paint was actually different. Has anyone else had to redo a whole room because of a simple product choice like that?

My paint in Akron has held up for years with just a good primer first.

But is special bathroom paint really needed if the fan works right?
