Default Paint failure

Some south facing exterior timber window frames were painted with Leyland undercoat & gloss topcoat, both oil based. The wood was in sound condition, and the old paint was all stripped off due to its poor condition. Now the paint is flaking badly a year later! How can a repeat of this failure be avoided?


Chemicals from previously stripped paint leaching from the wood and
attacking the undercoat???? Perhaps a paint formulated as a sealer
applied first?
