● ● ● NATIONAL PAINTING AND DECORATING SHOW PAINTS CAN DO MORE THAN DECORATE PAINTS and coatings are everywhere; from the wing of an aircraft to the wall of your home. Aesthetics and decoration can make a difference both at home and in the work environment but this is only one function of coatings; you may have condensation problems. Residual damp and water staining. Damp and condensation are common problems in a wide range of properties; Housing Associations, Leisure Centers, Schools, Industrial Premises and Domestic Properties all suffer to some extent. There are several methods to control the problems, but ideally one needs to discover the source of the problem. Then it can be treated using the correct control method, let’s say an anti-damp or anti condensation coating in a ‘belt and braces’ approach to the problem. We hope the information given will help understand the issues involved. Damp and Staining Help prevent damp and mould in cellars or areas prone to residual moisture problems using an Antidamp paint. The product is based on low odour oil based resins that restrict water movement. The dry film contains an additive which, when wet, reacts to form a water screen within the dry paint film. In addition, unsightly mould is deterred by a film protecting agent. Obviously a paint film will not solve the original cause of dampness, be it a leak or other water ingress, but it will solve many of the associated problems. It is available in White and will dry with a slight “finish”; it is not completely “Matt”. Ideal on cellars, outbuildings, low rooms, kitchen & bathroom areas prone to dampness. If required it can be subsequently over-coated with both water based and solvent based systems. We would always recommend analysis to discover the root cause of the problem, but, both Anti damp and Anti condensation paints are a useful tool to have in the battle against dampness and condensation. Even in these modern days where ‘one coat of one paint does everything’, they should continue to be an integral part of every decorator’s emergency kit.
