Breathable Emulsion Paint for interior walls
Breathable paint is such a commonplace term these days with plenty of greenwashing confusing prospective customers all over the industry. There is such a massive sliding scale of what is ‘actually’ breathable, but you can rest assured that the paints listed below are some of the best around. Whether you need breathable paints for old houses, or modern, there is plenty of choice.
If we don’t have breathable paint, the moisture can build up behind the paint (due to most paint being made from plastic) which eventually destroys the plaster, which can cause no end of issues. Damp walls cause mould and mildew, which must be avoided.
Breathable paint for lime plaster: If painting over lime plaster, Auro 344 is ideal as it is a lime based paint, although Auro 555 is compatible if you want colours.
