![]() We started this exterior today . So everything looks like the first pic and anything you scrape turns to the second pic. The house was painted 5 years ago with sher kril. The homeowner said they pressure washed with a vengance which is clear from the scored wood we have seen. Then started painting a day later no scraping no priming told the HO that what the pressure washer was for. Trying to determine the main cause of the peeling soffits the rest is normal peeling of chipping.

![]() Could be that's what vengeful pressure washing will get ya. Especially on plywood. I notice the solid stock siding and trim aren't peeling. Usually paint peeling back to the substrate is an indication of moisture getting behind the paint film.

![]() Especially when there is no place for the moisture to go but to lay on top of the paint film.

![]() I see quite a few of these type of plywood soffits here in Ohio. My conclusion over the years has been lack of ventilation which leaves moisture to accumulate on the attic side of the plywood which eventually pushes the paint off. Those little vents just don't seem to allow much air to circulate and dissapate the moisture.

![]() If the roof is leaking then it will cause soffits to do this. Many times it won't show up in side and run down the rafters until it hit the soffit. Leaks could also be in the overhangs instead of over the house.
