Full details
HQC Anti Damp Paint in Yellow is designed for homeowners and professional contractors looking to resolve persistent moisture and stain issues on interior and exterior surfaces.

FAQs
Can I use this paint on an exterior wall?
Yes, HQC Anti Damp Paint is formulated for both interior and exterior use.
Does it need a primer?
The paint acts as an obliterating barrier, but for very porous surfaces, a test patch is recommended to determine if an additional primer is necessary.
Is it safe for use in a kitchen?
Yes, it is specifically designed for high-humidity areas like kitchens and bathrooms.
Will this stop mold from growing?
Yes, by eliminating the damp conditions that mold requires to thrive, this paint effectively prevents fungi growth.
Can I paint over this with another color?
Yes, once fully cured, you can apply your desired top-coat color over the HQC Anti Damp Paint.
How many coats do I need?
In many cases, sufficient coverage can be achieved in just one coat, though a second coat may be used for extreme stain coverage.
Troubleshooting
Paint not adhering to the surface
Ensure the surface is free from oil, grease, or large amounts of loose, flaking debris before re-application.
Damp spots reappearing shortly after application
Verify that the source of the water ingress is not a structural leak; if it is a major leak, repair the source before painting.
Slow drying times
Increase ventilation in the room to help the micro-porous technology release moisture from the wall.

Setup, Compatibility & Care
Before applying HQC Anti Damp Paint, ensure that the area is clean and free of heavy dirt or loose paint flakes. While the product is designed to be applied to damp surfaces, excess standing water should be wiped away to ensure proper adhesion. Use a high-quality brush or roller for even coverage. When applying to exterior surfaces, check that weather conditions are dry enough for the initial set. For long-term care, avoid using harsh abrasive cleaners on the painted surface; a light wipe with a damp cloth is generally sufficient to keep the area clean without damaging the protective barrier.
