Zinsser Watertite 5 Litre

Product Information

The best type of coatings for this environment will be solvent based and usually contain a combination of waterproof resin as well as Portland cement. This combination will ensure the environment is watertight.

It’s very easy to apply and once fully set leaves a soft sheen finish in magnolia resulting in a look that is sophistic yet simple. My main gripe comes with its watery consistency and often poor opacity, especially over colours. But with a little patience (and a coat of white vinyl matt), this paint is one of the most reliable paints on the market.Looking for more painting and decorating tips?

If you’re suffering from mould, mildew or condensation issues in your cellar or garage, a good quality waterproof paint for concrete will go a long way. And for this occasion, we would highly recommend Zinsser Watertite. Breathable– The membrane of the waterproof paint should be breathable to prevent the build up of damp and water pressure within a substrate. Allowing water vapour to permeate the membrane does not encourage damp, but does encourage stability.

Warning: If you scrape, sand, or remove old paint, you may release lead dust. Special precautions should be taken during the surface preparation of pre 1960’s paint surfaces over wood and metal as they may contain harmful lead. When dry-sanding avoid dust inhalation by wearing a suitable protective face mask. WaterTite® Waterproofing Paint is guaranteed to keep water out and contains a biocide that protects the dried coating against fungal degradation. It can easily be applied to wet or dry surfaces creating a smooth, non-gritty finish.
