yes the paint as come off but there is also parts of the walls with no paint on and the tiles have de bonded

Why did you tile on to paint?

Also, you say 2 skim coat. You’re talking about a standard skim up in two stages with no Bonding or Hardwall involved?

I tiled on to a painted wall because the div of a decorated painted it but my main concern is wet plaster and yes standard 2 coat skim onto boards

I tell my customers not to bother plastering walls where there will be a fully tiled wall.
It is recommended that you wire brush new plaster .
It is common practice to score the walls in a diamond pattern with a craft knife on plaster or if the walls are old use an axe (dear Henry)

Scoring the walls in a diamond pattern serves no purpose other than weakening the skim even more.
