Moisture damage, mold growth, and peeling paint are common challenges in many homes, especially in areas exposed to high humidity or water leaks. To ensure a durable, waterproof, and mold-resistant finish, a three-step solution using Crown Fungicidal Wash, Plascon Dampseal, and Silicone Paint is highly recommended.
Step 1: Treat the Surface with Crown Fungicidal Wash
Why? Mold and mildew thrive in damp conditions, leading to unpleasant odors and health risks. Crown Fungicidal Wash is specially formulated to kill mold, algae, and fungi on walls and ceilings.
How to Apply:
- Clean the Surface: Remove loose dirt, flaking paint, and debris using a wire brush or sandpaper.
- Dilute if Necessary: Some surfaces may require dilution as per manufacturer guidelines.
- Apply the Fungicidal Wash: Use a brush, sponge, or sprayer to coat the affected area.
- Let it Sit: Allow the solution to penetrate and dry completely (typically 24 hours).
- Rinse if Needed: For best results, rinse off residues with clean water and let the wall dry.
Step 2: Seal the Surface with Plascon Dampseal
Why? Damp walls are a leading cause of peeling paint and structural damage. Plascon Dampseal is designed to block water ingress, ensuring a strong foundation for your topcoat.
How to Apply:
- Ensure the Surface is Dry: Wait until the fungicidal treatment is fully dry before proceeding.
- Stir Well: Open the Plascon Dampseal container and stir thoroughly.
- Apply Evenly: Use a roller or brush to spread the damp-proofing sealant onto the affected areas.
- Let it Dry: Allow at least 4–6 hours between coats and apply two coats for the best protection.
- Check for Full Coverage: Ensure all damp-prone areas are well coated.
Step 3: Finish with Silicone Paint for a Waterproof, Durable Coat
Why? Silicone-based paint is known for its excellent water resistance, breathability, and long-lasting finish. It provides a protective layer that repels moisture while allowing the wall to breathe, preventing future mold and mildew growth.
How to Apply:
- Choose Your Shade: Available in grey and other colors, select a shade that suits your aesthetic.
- Stir the Paint Well: Proper mixing ensures a consistent finish.
- Apply the First Coat: Use a roller or brush, spreading the paint evenly over the prepared surface.
- Let it Dry: Allow 4–6 hours before applying the second coat.
- Apply a Second Coat: For maximum durability, a second coat is recommended.
