anti fungal paint additive

[Paul Waites]

Hi all,

I have a bad black mould problem and am going to have to redecorate
several rooms.... I have found some Dulux trade antifungal white
emulsion which will do the ceilings but would like to do something about
the walls. Does anyone know of an additive that could be added to
standard emulsions, or a treatment that would use to inhibit the return
of the mould. I've spent a lot of effort with mould cleaner and
scrubbing to remove it and I would like to keep it away as long as possible.

Thanks for any ideas,

Paul.

That's the wrong fix. You need to find out why it's forming and
cure the cause. Most likely it's condensation, caused by poor
ventilation and/or excessive moisture production and/or uneven
heating and/or poor insulation.

Yes, find the cause and deal with it.

[Paul Waites]

Hi all,

Yes we have dealt with the cause, as you say it is condensation. The
concrete floors have been sealed, polystyrene added to the external
walls, and extra air bricks added... The thing is that once you've got
the spores they come back... The ceilings are artex so it is a sod to
clean once the mould comes back... Even to a small degree so I want to
finish things off with paint that may discourage the mould as some small
amounts of condensation does return.

Paul.

Glad you have actually done the sensible thing.

I assume that this special Dulux paint is only available in white? If
that is the problem, you could always use the same but add pigments as
needed. Not sure what is availabkle where but I have seen some suitable
pigments in some of the sheds. (It is not entirely impossible that a
paint shop might use their colour mixer facility to help you.) Obviously
limits the range of colours compared with the full ranges available in
'normal' paints and it might take a bit of experimentation.

Not a bad idea in principle, but CuSO4, ZnSO4, borax, aspirin etc are a fraction the price.

Why would an antibacterial treatment help with mold (which is a fungus)?

To put this is context, fungi are more closely related to humans than
to bacteria.

[meow...@care2.com]

A fair few additives kill both, including silver if it is a silver compound.


NT

[Martin Bonner]

Well, yes. The trouble is that both fungi and bacteria are tough buggers
(as a general rule), so if it is effective against both it is probably
pretty toxic to *any* (terrestrial) cellular life form - including us.

[meow...@care2.com]

Not really. Salicylic acid, zinc sulphate, copper sulphate, silver compounds etc.

Add just 2ml per litre of paint or kilo of grout, mix very thoroughly to ensure even distribution.

Silver Shield is completely inert to humans and animals, just billions of silver particles that when in contact with microbes will completely prevent them from reproducing, thus they will die out in small numbers before becoming unsightly and hazardous moldy patches. THIS 10ml DISPENSER IS ENOUGH FOR 5 litres of water based paint or 5 kilo's of grout.

I sell this product and have used it several times. Anyone who uses Silver Shield as instructed, has my personal personal guarantee that it works, if you look up silver ions, nano silver, or silver particles on any scientific report you will see the simple science behind how Silver Shield Antibacterial Paint Additive works.

Well there's a first, useful info arising from 6yr old thread

I certainly will be avoiding that Silver Shield crap like the plague.

Thanks for the link.

The above is bollix.
You have a damp problem that needs to be eliminated.. (Probably
condensation.)
Probably by ventilation, at source is best. (extractor fans in
showers/cooker hoods. etc.)
You might want to look at the house insulation in general too.

To get rid of the black mould, you can buy an algicide from any builders
merchant.
Or even bleach. Some algicides are persistent (hence lastlonger)
Then redecorate. using anti fungal paint is good

Used as directed it can produce some "intersting" (Chinese usage)
effects - see agryia. Used to be an uncommmon industrial disease of
silver miners and workers who were insufficiently respectful of it.

Now it is appearing in New Age worried well health freaks!

Good product if it works, quick delivery.
By Trevor on 24 Sep 2014
Verified Purchase
Quick delivery and I've now added this product to internal bathroom and bedroom ceilings, bedroom walls and outside walls mixed in with Dulux WeatherShield. Only time will tell if it works OK, hope to add post by December on inside walls and ceilings as we'd normally experience mould by that time of year.

What's really good about this product, (if it works), is that you can mix it with any colour paint whereas the Ronseal anti-mould paint only comes in white as far as I'm aware, and the Dulux bathroom products with it built it are a bit pricey.

5.0 out of 5 stars Anti Bacterial Paint costs about £80 for 5 litres......., 1 Mar 2013
By Mr. Harry Palmer "Kitchen Painter" (West London) - See all my reviews
This review is from: Silver Shield Antibacterial Paint Additive (Misc.)
All of the big paint makers sell an antibacterial paint. Many of them, all fully tested contain zillions of "Silver Ions". Silver has been used for centuries to protect from bacteria, the Egyptians stored water in silver containers to prevent algie and contamination. Cowboys in the Texas cattle ranches used to put Silver Dollars into the water barrels to keep the water fresh. They didn't know why it worked, it just did.
To buy paint with a silver content that will kill almost all bacteria and virus incuding MRSA, E-Coli and others, in fact more than 99.99% of germs that come into contact with the painted surface, will cost around £80 for a 5 litre can, the same paint without the silver ion content is about half the price.
Other manufacturers, non-brand names such as DIY store "own brands" only cost about £15 to £20 pounds for 5 litres. Many are very good paints, washable, nice colours and coat well with only one or two coats.
You can convert this "cheaper" paint into Antibacterial Paint by adding Silver Shield Antibacterial Paint Additive, it's colourless, easy to mix in and concentrated to match or outperform even the most expensive brands. For under £15 including P&P for the additive and £20 for the paint you'll have top quality antibacterial paint of your choice for only about £35. that's well under half price !! Happy decorating.

Does anyone know if you can add the anti-fungus/ mold additives to a mist coat on new plaster and then paint over it with normal emulsion?

also a lot of the data sheets for the additives have severe health warnings - are they safe?

which additives? I use aspirin, but you can also use copper compounds, zinc compounds etc


NT

[Brian-Gaff]

Well if they were always safe they would not have warnings, or did I miss
something. I was told at Racal where a lot of such paints were used, not to
store the painted articles in a closed, ie unventilated area due to a
possible build up of toxic fumes. What I never quite understood was if this
reall was the case, how on earth did the paint always appear dry, and was
there therefore a bottomless pit of the chemical in there, unlikely.
