  • It's usually specialised application. Quite useful where there is existing mould like small shower rooms. It's got a slightly odd finish and it's really sticky to paint with.

    More details would help but a 'normal' approach to painting woodwork would be primer followed by 2 or 3 top coats of acrylic eggshell. It might suit you to use a couple of coats of Zinnser All Coat though, that's a great paint.

    If you have bare wood you will need something that can resist any staining, Zinsser Cover Stain does that. I'm looking for a reliable primer that seals redwood and is moisture vapour permeable but have yet to find one I'd recommend.

  • It’s a log cabin in the garden it’s got a membrane underneath and not especially concerned about damp. I should have really just asked you as you’ve already offered so much help in my paint decisions!! I’m painting the whole thing white inside and laying a cork floor.
