Frequently Asked Questions
Explore our answers to common questions about anti-mould paint and preventing mould growth.Â
No, paint application alone will not prevent mould from returning. The core issue must be resolved first. This means properly cleaning and treating the affected area. For best results, start with Zinsser Cover Stain Primer to seal stubborn marks quickly and provide a stable base for your first coat. Follow with two coats of Zinsser Perma-White Interior, a durable finish that helps prevent black mould in rooms exposed to steam or high humidity.
For a solvent-free option, Crown Trade Clean Extreme Mould Inhibiting Matt offers superior fungicidal barrier defence on interior walls and ceilings in bathrooms, kitchens and bedrooms.Â
Always fix the existing mould problem first; don’t just paint over it. Once this issue has been resolved, we recommend thoroughly treating and cleaning the surface. Use a scraper or stiff paint brush to remove residue.Â
Following this, seal and prime the surface; this can help to prevent anything from penetrating through the walls. Finally, apply your chosen anti-mould paint. One of our most highly recommended seal paints is Polycell One Coat Damp Seal.
No, mould-proof paint won't be effective if the mould is left untreated. Always resolve the root cause in your home, clean the surface, and follow with a proper primer and mildew-proof paint.Â
If you have not found the cause of the mould and resolved it, then the mould will quickly penetrate through your new coat of anti-fungal paint.
Absolutely. Look for mould-resistant paint with biocides and scrubbable finishes like Zinsser Perma-White Mould Resistant Paint.
