How to remove latex paint and not the underlying oil-based paint?

I have used just detergent in the past to wash it away!
Good luck!

I just had this happen at my moms house. She just painted the entire thing on the inside. I was doing a patch up job on some drywall, and when I wet sanded the mud, I noticed that the latex was just peeling. All it took for her paint to be removed was a wet sponge and it peeled right off. I asked her if she used any primer or prep, she said, “nope!” Well, that said everything… lol.
