What are the main reasons a deck might peel over time, and what steps can you take to protect it from peeling in the future?

I'm trying to repaint my baseboard heaters and trim with a water-based satin finish but I found out that there's an oil-based primer underneath. I just realized I can't put water-based paint over oil-based. What's a simple and budget-friendly way to fix this? The colour options for oil-based paint are pretty slim, otherwise, it wouldn't be an issue!
