Customers Say
This paint effectively covers damp and mold stains with good coverage and durability, but users frequently mention a very strong smell that requires ventilation during application.

Johnson Damp Proof Pain White
I purchased this paint a couple of weeks ago and have already used it. It really works and the white paint looks just like matt wall paint.

Perfect for bathroom damp/mould
Was looking for a damp and mould paint but they are so expensive, this was on offer but after checking reviews and questions I couldn’t find the answer I was looking for and I wasn’t sure if anyone else had any luck using this as it’s only a stain blocker and not necessarily a mould paint. Well I tried and it worked great, it’s been around a month since i used and painted over, nothing has come back. Our bathroom is used a lot ! No including my family I shower sometimes 3 times a day yet no damp moult issues since using this paint, I Would use it again !

Damp proof paint
Not much to say about paint, It brushes on like most good quality damp proof paints it is like a thick gloss paint to apply. I painted over with emulsion after 36 hours which was ok.

A small can, but did the job.
A small but useable can for a small ceiling. I used this to cover rings caused by a water leak that can through the ceiling, it wasn't damp but I wanted something with a good coverage.

Hello Diy queen,
The Johnstone's Damp Proof Matt Paint can help cover discoloration from previous damp patches, but only if the underlying damp issue has been fully resolved.
Thank you for using Q&A
Hello Max,
The supplier has advised the following for the Johnstone's Damp Matt Paint 750ml - White:
"If the paint is blistering on the surface this indicates that there is an issue with the surface. This needs to be identified and sorted before trying other coatings.
I would suggest that if previous products have blistered this will too.
Without more information, it is very difficult to give the customer any further advise."
Thank you for using Q and A.

It says its oil-based not water based.
