Clarification:

If you want a surfactant free paint job in the bathroom, you may need to:

1. Vent the bathroom to prevent humidity build up on the walls (if using latex)

OR

2. Use an oil based paint which will not leach out surfactant

Side Note: A draw back with using oil is while they are not subject to surfactant leaching, they are more prone to mildew growth. This can be countered by again - venting during showers etc... and/or by adding a commercial midewcide additive to the paint.
