Problems with oil - Need advice

Hi,

Hope someone can help.

I Usually paint with acrylic but I love to paint with oil. I have two questions.

1) I am alergic to the mediums used with oil, except turpentine. What would happen if I use only turpentine as a medium. Would this cause the paint to peel?

2) I usually paint very "thin" since I use fine details. Would this cause the paint to peel? I am asking these questions because I have tried oil painting years ago and the paint peeled off the canvas.
