It is a potential environmental and health hazard, according to the Centers for Disease Control. If you see signs of bathroom mold or mildew on your bathroom wall, you are going to want to deal with it right away—before it erupts into a much bigger problem. One big indication is the existence of tiny dark sparks in the corner near the shower. Mould spores can be harmful to your family’s health so please do not ignore any signs of mould developing. We bought and tried this paint in the Summer to treat a problem wall. Now well into the Winter and it has worked very well – warmer wall and no mould. So, now that we know it works, we have bought some more to treat other areas.

Suretherm Paint 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. Independent tests confirm that surfaces treated with Suretherm paint take twice as long to cool down when compared to ordinary emulsion paint. Condensation takes 57% longer to form on Suretherm coated surfaces compared to ordinary emulsion paint.Love this paint! Makes the walls so much warmer, I have had no problems with condensation mould since I started using it. I am going to be using it in all of my rental properties from now on. Would definately recommend 🙂 Before deciding whether to use mold resistant paint, you’ll want to consider a few pros and cons.

Apply mixed paint as per the paint manufacturer’s instructions.

The 50ml pot will turn 2.5L of paint into a anti-mould coating that once applied helps to prevent the growth of mould. Add 60g to 5 litres or 120g to 10 litres of emulsion paint by stirring in (ideally with a mixing paddle on an electric drill) and apply by brush or roller to create a “mould hostile” decorative finish.
