Coo-Var Anti Damp Paint - White
Overview
Coo-Var Anti-Damp is a low-odour, resin-based paint specially designed for use on damp interior walls and ceilings. It contains an active reagent that reacts with surface moisture, helping to control moisture release and make damp areas cleaner and brighter. This effective primer also resists efflorescence, preventing stains and discoloration while offering excellent adhesion. The biocidal properties preserve the dry film and reduce discoloration, ensuring the surface remains in good condition. Anti-Damp can easily be overcoated with conventional paints, making it a versatile solution for damp environments. (Note: This product does not address the underlying cause of dampness.)

- Repair any structural issues or sources of dampness before proceeding with the application.
Application
- Mix well before use to ensure the product is fully blended.
- Apply the product using a brush or roller, ensuring even coverage across the surface.
- Allow the first coat to dry for at least 12 hours or overnight before applying a second coat if necessary.
