Should we paint over our peeling rented bathroom?

We've just tackled a mold issue in this bathroom but we noticed a lot of the paint (from age or a "landlord special" has been peeling away at the bathroom light (over the shower), areas on top of the shower, and on the walls. Looks like the bathroom itself used to be yellow (?) We've sprayed the bathroom over with hydrogen peroxide and replaced our vent fan so it works, but we figured we might as well take care of the entire room to avoid mold/rust toxicity/spores from happening again since its so poor in ventilation. Should we just paint over the rusted light fixture/use this mold primer for our bathroom? or should we find a paint that is suited for bathrooms? Trying to figure out what the best way to deal with this is. Should we change the light fixture since its rusted? How? We're trying to deal with things on our own to avoid another rent hike from our landlord. Thanks! submitted by /u/Dauntlesse [link] [comments]
