    Specialist Coatings and Paints Frequently Asked Questions

    What is specialist paint?

    Specialist paint refers to a category of coatings that are engineered to perform a specific function beyond simply adding colour to a project. While regular decorative paints are designed for aesthetics and general durability, specialist paints are formulated to solve a particular problem or to be used in a challenging environment.

    Think of them as high-performance solutions. Their unique chemistry allows them to do things that standard emulsions or gloss paints cannot, such as:

    • Withstand extreme temperatures.
    • Prevent the growth of mould and mildew.
    • Adhere to difficult, non-porous surfaces like plastic or tiles.
    • Resist heavy foot traffic and chemical spills.
    • Block persistent stains and odours.

    If you have a unique or demanding project, from a damp bathroom to a garage floor, there is likely a specialist paint created specifically to handle it.

    What kinds of specialist paint are there?

    The world of specialist paints is vast, with a product engineered for almost any challenge. These paints are typically grouped by the problem they solve or the substrate they are designed for.

    Some of the most common types of specialist paint include:

    • Anti-Mould & Anti-Condensation Paint: Contains powerful biocides to actively prevent the growth of mould and mildew in high-humidity areas like bathrooms, kitchens, and cellars.
    • Heat-Resistant Paint: Formulated to withstand very high temperatures without blistering, cracking, or discolouring. It's essential for use on radiators, log burners, fire surrounds, and BBQs.
    • Textured Paint: A highly durable, tough coating designed to resist abrasion, foot traffic, and spills. It's used on industrial flooring and vehicle beds mainly.
    • uPVC & Plastics Paint: A flexible paint with exceptional adhesion designed to bond permanently with smooth, non-porous plastic surfaces like window frames and doors.

    What is anti-mould paint?

    Anti-mould paint is a specialised interior coating formulated with powerful biocides and fungicides that are integrated directly into the paint film. Its primary purpose is to make the surface inhospitable for mould and mildew spores.

    How does it work?

    Unlike standard paint that can provide a porous surface for mould to thrive on (especially in damp conditions), anti-mould paint works in two ways:

    1. Kills Spores on Contact: The active fungicides in the paint will destroy any existing microscopic spores that land on the surface.
    2. Inhibits Future Growth: It creates a durable, mould-resistant barrier that actively prevents new mould from taking hold and growing on your walls or ceiling.

    It is the ideal solution for protecting areas prone to high humidity, condensation, and poor air circulation, such as bathrooms, kitchens, utility rooms, and cellars. For the best results, you must always thoroughly clean any existing mould from the surface before applying the anti-mould paint.
