whats the density of this foam in the picture? -
use acetone or lacquer thinner to strip.and as I stated before betcha the company only used a lacquer primer no sealer to go into the wood pore,so primer could adhere to the sealer..i have seen the issue hundreds of times.

try looking at your paints are not dry enuff or not compatable..that will allow peel. no adherence.
