The Paint Shed recommends

Perfect for high-humidity areas like bathrooms and also available in colour-matching and mixing.

Perma-White Interior is a Zinsser mould resistant paint in a matt finish which contains a biocide that protects against fungal degradation. Designed to resist cracking, peeling and blistering for up to 7 years before first maintenance, this is a high performing, durable mould resistant paint for interior walls and ceilings. With strong adhesion to existing solvent based or glossy paints, Perma-White Matt also seals flat paint, cement block, concrete and new drywall. 

This mould resistant paint is best suited for areas of high humidity where a durable, matt finish is wanted such as kitchens or bathrooms. This is a very high rated product, however if you'd like to have a look at other anti-mould paints, check out our category. 

Also available in tinted colours including RAL, BSC and colour-matching.

Preparation and Application

Apply with a brush, roller or spray to a clean, dry surface for best results. Touch dry in just 30 minutes and ready for a second coat after 2 hours, this is a quick and easy to apply interior paint that requires no maintenance for up to 7 years.

Customer Questions
Can I use a colour water based emulsion on top of this?
Yes, you can use a water based emulsion on top of Zinsser Interior Perma White Matt.
Can Zinsser Interior Perma White Matt go straight on to new plaster?
Yes, Zinsser Interior Perma White Matt can be applied to fresh plaster.
Will this cover damp pre emulsioning

Zinsser Interior Perma White won't cover damp before painting over with emulsion. The only way to get rid of the damp is to cure the root of the problem with a damp proofing course. If the root of the problem has already been cured, we recommend using Zinsser Coverstain to hide any staining.

Would this paint be fine to paint over bathroom tiles?
Yes, you can apply Zinsser Interior Perma White to bathroom tiles.
Is Zinsser Perma White Matt a mould resistant paint?

Yes, Zinsser Perma-White is a mould resistant paint that contains a biocide that protects the dried coating against fungal degradation. The paint is designed to resist cracking, peeling and blistering for up to 7 years. This paint can be used for high-humidity areas that are subject to challenging wear and tear, for instance, for bathrooms, utility and laundry rooms.  

Can you use silk on top of this paint

Can Zinsser Permawhite (exterior) be overpainted with an oil based gloss coat?

Doesn’t like the permawhite finish now it all done. Really hoping I don’t have to sand all the petmawhite off again
Yes, The Zinsser Interior Perma White Matt can be used however we would recommend to give the area a good rub down before applying.
