Frequently asked questions
For most bathrooms, the best choice is a specialist mould-resistant bathroom paint in a matt or satin finish. Look for a water-based, low-odour paint that is washable, scrubbable, stain-resistant and moisture-resistant.
For bathroom walls, avoid standard interior paint and use a specialist bathroom paint made for high-humidity areas. A mould-resistant matt or satin finish is usually a strong choice, especially if it is designed to resist cracking, peeling and blistering for up to seven years before first maintenance.
Bathroom ceilings need paint that can cope with steam and condensation. A water-based, low-odour, mould-resistant paint in matt or satin can work well, as long as it is made for high-humidity areas and has a moisture-resistant finish.
You can, but it usually will not last as well. Regular interior paint often lacks the moisture resistance bathrooms need. In a damp, humid room, that can lead to peeling, flaking or mould over time.
Not always. Some bathroom paints are self-priming and can stick to sound surfaces without sanding. However, if the surface is stained, damaged, glossy or uneven, a suitable primer may still be needed.
