Suretherm Anti-Condensation Paint (ACP) is a water based internal emulsion which will significantly reduce condensation and mould by utilising Glass Microsphere Technology. Unlike other anti condensation paints, Suretherm paint does not contain any harmful biocides. This paint's unique blend includes glass microspheres that are 'charged' to retain heat for longer periods than traditional decorative paints. This helps maintain the surface temperature, making it ideal for cold or exposed areas with little or no insulation. Additionally, it has insulating properties, further reducing the chances of condensation formation. Features & Benefits: Suretherm Anti-Condensation Paint - 2.5 litres

What is anti condensation paint?

With this Suretherm anti-condensation paint, you only need two coats for a quality finish. Once the coats are dry, you can paint over them with standard emulsion or cover them with wallpaper to achieve your desired look. The white colour of the paint ensures it won't clash with any decorative additions you make. Depending on the amount you need to cover your surfaces, you may need to buy more than one can. Also, bear in mind that you may need to apply a second coat. Anti-condensation paint has the added benefit of being able to be covered with wallpaper once you’re finished with the application on the surface. This not only safeguards your walls but also allows you to add your desired decorative touch.

Apply 1-2 coats as required of Zinsser Drywall Pro 2 in 1 to the bare plaster and follow with your preferred Anti-Condensation Paint in your chosen colour and finish.

So, our experience of Rempro Thermal Paint so far had been excellent. So good, in fact, there haven’t really been any negatives to speak of. Condensation, on the other hand, is when there is little airflow or ventilation in a space. It is most common in kitchens and bathrooms that have poor air circulation. Whatever the application, the surfaces must be completely dry before treating to allow Suretherm to work effectively. Typically, a single gallon of paint can cover an area ranging from 70-100 square feet. If you buy more paint than you need, it’s okay because you can use it to add another coat for better protection against condensation – adding more coats will make the paint last longer.If you are having problems with recurring damp behind shoe storage units in cupboards, chests of drawers or wardrobes, etc, leave the section of furniture out and increase the ventilation to this area (opening windows, doors, etc.) until the patch of plaster/wall surface has completely dried out.

A tell-tale sign for damp is often peeling wallpaper and crumbling plaster. This is a big indicator that there is a source of wetness penetrating your walls and creating problems. Often, this is caused by an external source. For example, a broken roof tile, overflowing gutters, a badly fitted window. Dampness can also crawl its way up, so if you have a badly insulated basement, it’s important to keep an eye on this. You could be dealing with dampness long before you realise, as it could take a while for a damp patch to show on your walls for example. Dampness can usually be smelled before you can see it. So, if you are dealing with a persistent stale and stuffy smell, dampness could be the cause! Simply applying two coats of Suretherm Anti Condensation Paint before you decorate will give you the protection you need against mould growth & unneeded heat loss. It is particularly ideal for bathrooms, kitchens, areas that do not have insulation or for industrial environments.

Although Suretherm comes in white as standard, it can be wallpapered over or painted over using any emulsion paint, which makes it ideal as a mould preventing solution to be applied before you decorate. Having said that, if you are looking for a white emulsion, you can use it as your topcoat as well. Key Features: Wallpaper can be applied over the top of Suretherm.

Assuming it is a concrete floor with plastered walls, dampness may be coming up through the floor and into the wall, the skirting boards may be getting damp from the floor and wall. One of the many reasons why we consider Suretherm to be the best anti mould paint available is that it does not contain the harmful biocides that other anti mould paints contain. The advanced heat retaining is what prevents the conditions that allow mould to grow, rather than killing the mould when it grows.
