Jane, more information would be most helpful in answering your plea.

What type wall surface. Sheetrock? Wood? Plaster?
What type coating. Latex? Alkyd?
How old was the previous paint job?
How long dry time between coats?
What room. Bath? Kitchen? Hall?

All these answers may seem insignificant, but we will be more accurate in the diagnosis with them.

You will need to scrape off the loose paint then spot prime before applying the spackle.
