Oil Based Primer, or any Primer for that matter, typically peels due to the bonding surface being poorly prepared. There are the occasional defective products as well as the dry times that were shortened by top coats, but usually it is the surface At Fault. Some metals offer little adhesion, woods must be properly prepared and pre-finished surfaces need to be sanded down to original material for adhesion.

Absolutly! You just have to check to see if the primer is first an exterior primer and if it will stick to glossy surfaces. You can lightly sand to rough up the surface or just clean the surface and apply the primer. For oil based primers I would recommend Beauti-tone's fast dry oil primer or Zinsser's oil based cover stain primer.
