Default Window sills need to be wiped off?

Just had good nabe painter redo my West-facing (strong sun) wooden

Moore acrylic (over primer). They had cracked and split and looked
like something that rhymes with split.

He says I have to get out there every morning and wipe off the
condensation from those window sills. (Near beach; evenings
dewy). ??!!!


Not surprised he said that. He had to come up with something to make
the paint's failure your fault, not his. Odds are he didn't properly
prep before painting.
