Resistant Finish
Mildew and mold are common problems in areas with excessive moisture, and painting over them is often a temporary solution. Here’s one way to achieve long-lasting results.
- Clean mildew and mold off the surface before priming and painting
- Allow it to dry completely before beginning the painting process
- Choose a KILZ® Primer with a mildew-resistant finish to ensure your new finish is protected against future mildew growth
- Choose a topcoat with similar protection such as mildew resistant paint for best results
