How to solve mold on the wall? The paint REMAL ANTI-MOLD is a water-dilutable anti-mold paint for walls with a preventive effect against the growth of molds such as Penicillium glaucum, Chaetomium globosum, Aspergillus niger, Alternaria tenuis, Aureobasidium pullulans, Sclerotinia pityophila. The maximum preventive effectiveness of the anti-mold paint is also achieved against fungi, yeasts, algae, and bacteria.
Anti-mold wall paint REMAL excellently covers, is breathable, abrasion-resistant, and has a high whiteness of 90%. The REMAL paint is used for anti-mold coatings on plasters, concrete, drywall, cement boards in interiors. The anti-mold paint shows resistance to wet abrasion – measured according to ČSN EN ISO 11998 – class 5. (classification according to EN 13300). Use the anti-mold paint safely.
Warning about mold paint:
Use biocidal products safely. Always read the label and product information before use.
Before painting, remove layers of old and non-adhering coatings. Treat areas affected by mold with the REMAL Sanal masonry treatment according to the instructions. Treat absorbent substrates with REMAL universal primer, non-adhering and blowing substrates with REMAL deep primer. This will remove dust from the surface, strengthen it, unify absorbency, and ensure adhesion of the coating. The drying time is 4 hours. For preventive anti-mold effect, REMAL anti-mold deep primer can be used. Smooth out irregularities on the wall with REMAL Filler. For problematic areas (leak stains, etc.), it is advisable to use the REMAL Isolation coating.
Dilute the anti-mold paint at a ratio of max. 0.4 l of water to 1 kg of paint. Then thoroughly mix the anti-mold paint. Apply with a brush, roller, or spraying in 2 coats; apply the next coat of anti-mold paint after the previous one has dried, at least after 4 hours. The optimal temperature for painting anti-mold paint is 15 to 25 °C. The temperature of the substrate and environment must not fall below 5 °C during application. Use products from one batch for solid areas; mix different batches together before use.
When working, adhere to basic hygiene rules. The product is not intended for coatings that come into direct contact with food, feed, drinking water, or for coatings of children's toys and furniture. Keep out of reach of children. If you feel unwell, seek medical help.
The product is treated with a biocide. It contains 3-iodo-2-propynyl-N-butylcarbamate, 1,3,5-tris(2-hydroxyethyl)hexahydro-1,3,5-triazine [ES number 225-208-0], reaction mixture: 5-chloro-2-methylisothiazol-3(2H)-one [ES number 247-500-7] and 2-methylisothiazol-3(2H)-one [ES number 220-239-6] (3:1). May cause an allergic reaction.
You might need
covering materials, such as paper tape or covering foil, possibly sanding papers. Don’t forget brushes, rollers, and spatulas.
This international standard ISO EN 11998 describes a rapid method for determining resistance to wet abrasion and the washability of paint. Regarding the cleanability of coatings, it only specifies the test method itself but does not specify the contaminants. After drying and conditioning, the coated sample is weighed and subjected to wet cleaning cycles in the testing abrasion (cleaning) device. The average thickness loss of the coating is calculated from the weight loss. To determine cleanability, contaminants are applied to similarly prepared samples. The specified contaminants are left in contact with the coating film for a prescribed time. The painted, contaminated samples are then subjected to cleaning cycles. It is evaluated whether the contaminant was removed and whether the coating is resistant to wet abrasion.
For evaluation, 5 classes are used - class 1 is the best – class 5 is the worst. Grading is like in school.
How often to paint?
It is usually recommended to paint approximately every 4 to 5 years. However, if you have small children or pets, it is advisable for hygienic and aesthetic reasons to repaint every 2 years.
