If it's the same as us, you might have contract paint which is moisture absorbant... (I'm an expert now because a professsional told me a few things)
So, it might be just a wipe down and need "proper" paint
But, yeah, get the good stuff.
Oh, and don't bother with odourless paint, it's worse because of the chemicals added to remove the smell. So you breathe in more of it...
