Full details

FAQs

What is the coverage rate of Smartseal Anti Mould Paint?

The paint covers approximately 4-6 m² per litre, per coat. This can vary depending on the surface texture and absorbency.

Can I paint over existing mould with this product?

No, it is crucial to clean and remove all existing mould thoroughly with a dedicated mould cleaner before applying the anti-mould paint for effective results.

Is this paint safe for use around children and pets?

Yes, the solvent-free, low-VOC formulation makes it a safer choice for indoor environments, including homes with children and pets, once fully dried.

What surfaces can I use this paint on?

It is designed for interior walls, ceilings, and floors, particularly in areas prone to condensation such as bathrooms, kitchens, and bedrooms.

How do I clean the painted surface?

Clean gently with a damp cloth. Avoid using harsh or abrasive cleaning chemicals, as they can damage the paint finish.

Does this paint require a primer?

For most surfaces, no primer is needed if they are properly prepared. However, for very porous or uneven surfaces, a suitable primer may improve adhesion and finish.

What is the drying time between coats?

Allow at least 2-4 hours for the first coat to dry before applying the second coat, depending on temperature and humidity conditions.

Troubleshooting

Paint not adhering well

Ensure the surface was properly cleaned and dried before application. Remove any loose paint, dust, or grease. For very porous surfaces, a primer might be beneficial.

Mould reappears after painting

Verify that all existing mould was completely removed and treated before painting. Ensure adequate ventilation in the room to manage humidity levels. For severe cases, a second coat might be necessary.

Uneven finish or brush marks

Ensure paint is thoroughly stirred. Apply in thin, even coats, using a good quality brush or roller. Avoid overworking the paint. Allow adequate drying time between coats.
