Coo-Var Voted Best Anti Condensation Paint!

A review written by What Paint? has voted Coo-Var #1 for best Anti Condensation paint on the market in the UK. For the full review click here.

Condensation is often accompanied by mould growth, black or green in colour, with no real sign of any dampness within the wall. Condensation often occurs around windows, especially single glazed where the temperature drop is large. Cold spots often give rings or patches of mould; often caused by an isolated defect in solid walls.

Anti-Condensation paint is an insulation type coating which helps reduce the effects of the cause of condensation; it keeps the wall slightly warmer and hence helps prevents condensation forming by reducing the cold wall effect. These coatings generally have a micro texture and can be over coated with decorative paint which will not affect their anti-condensation properties. The micro texture, which is barely visible, means you cannot repair the wall in patches; you must coat either the entire wall or whole sections of wall. This prevents you simply moving the problem to another patch, for example, on an external wall.
