N-Virol Suretherm Goodbye Mould Thermal Anti Condensation Paint aids in the retention of heat within a room for the purpose of reducing condensation and mould growth.

Hello there. I'm a fan of Keim. I take care of a flat in London which is ex-Council. The exterior facing walls are freezing cold, and condensation pours off them. They're currently painted with about 50 years of matt vinyl emulsion . . .

For Keim products to be used for this application, all the existing coatings would need to be removed, allowing the substrate to thoroughly dry out prior to application.

The area must be clean, dry, sound and prepared as detailed in the technical data sheet, primed with Keim Ecosil Grund followed by Keim Ecosil-Me.

This is available in many colours in a semi-matt finish.

This can achieve Euroclass B s2 d0 (replaces UK Classes ‘0’ and ‘1’ BS 476 Part 6/7*).

Can I use your Rust-Oleum Mathys Fillcoat Fibres to cover a poorly finished render on my chimney? Such things as trowel marks and general scuffing from poor workmanship. . . .

For this application assuming the stone is porous, clean, dry, sound and prepared as detailed in the technical data sheet you could consider Tikkurila Muuri.

While we have no experience of it being applied to Cotswold Stone assuming it has some porosity and with this in mind would have thought it would be ok to paint but as ever in these circumstances a small test would probably be advisable first to make sure it adheres ok.

With reference to the heavily stained issue however this does pose a potential problem in as much that the contamination could cause a few issues such as discolouration of the Muuri (bleeding) and potentially may also impair adhesion resulting in flaking and general loss of adhesion if this cannot be removed prior to application.

This paint can withstand upto 300°C in white or upto 180°C in a tinted colour. 

This is not suitable for direct flame contact.


What is the best paint to use on a front door stone step please?

Which paint would you recommend in Chartwell Green for exterior wooden driveway doors? They are next to a garage toller door in upvc Chartwell Green - is the colour in exterior paint likely to be close enough to match? . . .

Assuming the timber gates are bare, clean, dry, sound and prepared as detailed in the technical data sheet you could consider Zinsser Cover Stain followed by 2 coats of Zinsser AllCoat Exterior (Water Based).

On a previously painted substrate we would recommend to test on a small area once prepared for compatibility and adhesion prior to full application.

Water based is more tolerant to previously applied coatings, assuming the temperature for application is above 10°C it would be best to use water based.

If the temperatures are below this we would suggest solvent based.

Rust-Oleum CombiColor Original will take a temperature up to 90°C.

As we don’t know what actual surface temperature the storage heaters will get up to we can’t say for sure if the paint will be OK on any particular storage heater, it could depend on the model, type etc.

If it is below 90°C then this paint could be used.

It can be mixed to many RAL, NCS or BS colours in a satin or gloss finish.

Please note it will give off an odour during application, curing and the first few heat cycles.

What is the difference between Keim Soldalit and Keim Soldalit ME, please? My property has been rendered above the dpc and I've been advised to use a mineral-based paint on the lines of bricks below the dpc. What would you advise, . . .

Either product will be perfectly suitable for the surface being decorated as the Keim Soldalit and Soldalit ME will allow the trapped moisture when it reaches the DPC to diffuse through the vapour permeable paint system.

However, when applied the surface must be below a moisture content of 18% in order to allow the paint system to bind with the substrate.

 KEIM Soldalit-ME is a variation of KEIM Soldalit which offers sustainable exterior protection for buildings with the additional environmental benefit that it helps to degrade nitrogen oxide pollutants from the atmosphere.

The reaction also helps to breakdown organic material and contaminants, keeping surfaces cleaner.

 Meaning the ‘ME’ version has more air purification qualities as well being more mould resistant.
