    Where is it for?

    With regards condensation.........Do you have fixed/mechanical ventilation or an extractor fan of the right size??


    A tin of Zinsser or Dulux Bathroom Paint would be just as good and cheaper too.

    Curing the fault would be far better than treating areas with anti condensation paint.

    They just have an anti fungal agent in them and are slightly thicker. But they wont stop fungal growth.

    You really need to identify the cause of the issue and solve that.

    Thanks, yes I know there is an underlying problem but this thread is just about anti condensation paint at the moment.

    Paddy147 it's for an en suite, the window is left ajar every day and there is also an extractor fan used when the shower is on. Paint is flaking off ceiling and there are some mould spots around.

    Could be a cold spot above the ceiling in the attic but really hard to access it, so for the moment I'm only interested in short term solution

    From my little experiences I would recommend Zinsser.
    Was it just co-accident or what but Iwas impressed by Zinsser in my bathroom.
    All others nonames- dont go near them.
