BATHROOMS AND KITCHENS - Paint - Mauritius

The guide details of BATHROOMS AND KITCHENS


Description	:	Many kitchens and bathrooms have a condensation problem and, due to high humidity in these areas, water runs/stains appear on the painted surface. This often occurs with emulsion paints and, in cases where the dry film has not been allowed to age sufficiently e.g. at least 48 hours, blisters can appear. Water stains can usually be removed by lightly washing the surface. If the ventilation is very poor, mould infection can also occur. Condensation and fungus problems can often be brought under control by better ventilation, i.e. opening windows. If staining is persistent or flaking has occurred with an emulsion paint system, a change to an enamel paint system is recommended as follows:-

Paint	:	GLOSS FINISH Undercoat: Permoglaze Undercoat for all surfaces Finish : Permoglaze Gloss Finish EGGSHELL FINISH Undercoat: Permoglaze Undercoat for all surfaces Finish : Permoglaze Eggshell Finish Note : If for convenience, an emulsion system, e.g. Permoglaze VIP or Permotop Acrylic Emulsion MS 3 has been used in bathrooms, it is essential for the dry film to age for at least 48 hours before subjecting the paint to steamy conditions.
