I did this 2 or 3 years ago and my barn still looks good with no paint pealing. I power washed the whole barn, then painted with a latex based primer, then a second coat of latex exterior paint. I used paint from Ace Hardware, their good stuff. Google it. Their paint was rated as good as anyone elses and I have a couple of good Ace stores that are local which was very important and useful to me. The primer coat used 2x the paint I expected it to. The wood got roughed up pretty good when I power washed it and the surface just soaked it up. I actually bought out two stores of all their primer, this is after I ordered in what I thought I needed.

My advice, use a primer coat and don't go cheap on the quality of the paint as you will get the results you pay for.
