Safety data sheet
Technical data sheet

1. What is SPO Anti-Condensation Paint used for?

SPO Anti-Condensation Paint is designed to reduce moisture buildup on surfaces, making it ideal for kitchens, bathrooms, and other high-humidity areas. It also contains biocidal properties that help prevent mould and mildew growth.

2. Can I apply this paint over existing coatings?

Yes. As long as the existing paint is stable and the surface is clean and dry, you can apply SPO Anti-Condensation Paint on top. Lightly abrade glossy surfaces and remove any flaking paint to ensure proper adhesion.

3. How does it help reduce condensation?

The paint has insulating properties and a slightly textured finish. This combination helps increase surface temperature and minimise moisture buildup, reducing the risk of condensation forming on the walls.

4. Can I overcoat this paint for a different colour or finish?

Absolutely. SPO Anti-Condensation Paint can be left as-is in its white, slightly textured finish or can be overcoated with a decorative topcoat if desired. Always follow the recommended 4-hour drying time before applying another paint.

5. Is it really fast-drying and easy to apply?

Yes, it’s water-based, allowing for a quick drying time of about 4 hours between coats. You can apply it with a brush or short pile roller, and clean-up is simple with water.

6. Does it contain any mould-inhibiting agents?

Yes. SPO Anti-Condensation Paint includes biocidal protection that helps inhibit mould and mildew growth, keeping surfaces cleaner and healthier for longer.

7. How much coverage can I expect?

You can typically achieve 8–10 m² per litre, depending on surface porosity and condition. Applying thin, even coats helps maximise coverage and ensures a uniform finish.
