Coo-Var Anti-Condensation Paint is a high-performance, specialist interior coating that reduces condensation and prevents moisture-related staining on plaster and wood surfaces. Formulated with insulating microspheres and fungicidal additives, it helps maintain warmer surface temperatures to minimise water condensation while inhibiting mould and mildew growth.

Unlike standard emulsion paints, Coo-Var Anti-Condensation Paint provides a breathable, slightly textured matt finish that evaporates moisture while protecting surfaces from recurring damp marks. Its low-odour, water-based formula ensures a safe and convenient application, making it ideal for bathrooms, kitchens, basements, laundry rooms, and other condensation-prone areas.

This paint can be used as a standalone finish or overcoated with conventional interior paints, allowing flexible design options while maintaining moisture control. Its easy brush or roller application, quick touch-dry performance, and adequate coverage make it suitable for DIY and professional projects.
