How to stop water stains from bleeding through paint - How to hide water stains alternative

[@AMMO1981]

Great. Thanks for that. I picked up a can of white spray paint from Halfords and it worked a treat 👍

[@howtopaintinfo]

I'm glad you brought white, most stains sealer are white due to most ceilings are white or a light colour. Don't forget to Like, Share and Subscribe.

Hi can you tell me the procedure to repaint an internal wall that has mold on it as in what products and how to apply them. thanks so much

[@howtopaintinfo]

Use a product called Exit Mold or some bleach, that should kill the mold, wash off and prepare and paint as normal. Don't forget to Like, Share and Subscribe.

I use Zinsser, their shellac based B.I.N. Another good bit of information and video 👍 100km away from a paint shop! 😮

[@howtopaintinfo]

Most good stain sealers are shellac based and yes I was actually more like 120 km's for paint shop. Don't forget to Like, Share and Subscribe.

[@bigdadynickable]

thank you . So you're saying you can choose a zinc spray for what we use for after welding for a water stain and that will stop the stain from bleeding through. I hope this reaches you and I hope you're doing well.

[@howtopaintinfo]

Yes it does and there are lots of other spray cans out there that will also work. Don't forget to Like, Share and Subscribe.

Could you also use any pigmented sealer or oil based primer/undercoat? I guess it would take longer to paint over. Cheers

[@howtopaintinfo]

Yes you can use oil based primer/undercoat but you need to wait at least over night before you can apply top coats. Don't forget to Like, Share and Subscribe.

Why use a stain sealer at all then??

[@howtopaintinfo]

If you don't seal the stain it will bleed through final coats. Don't forget to Like, Share and Subscribe.

Having this prob now. Used a primer on the ceiling, and the spots just move over to the next area. Pain!

Do you know how I can remove them off of a Halloween mask?

[@howtopaintinfo]

Not sure, try bleach but it might destroy your mask. Don't forget to Like, Share and Subscribe.

[@glx3846]

howtopaintinfo I would not use bleach. Do have any other suggestions?

[@howtopaintinfo]

Sorry not sure what you can do it's totally different from water stain's on ceilings.

[@dominicoconnell8491]

I had a dried water stain 50cm by 50cm that I cleaned over with water and bleach, then I wiped off the bleach. I let the stained area dry off and I then painted over the stain with water based anti stain paint which is white. I'm now going to paint the whole wall in yellow. However, should I paint over the white anti stain paint first with a coat of yellow, let it dry and then paint the wall or is it ok to paint the whole wall in yellow and the small area of white anti stain paint won't show through??

[@howtopaintinfo]

Yes you should paint over the stain block first with the wall paint, Generally stain block is more shiny and sometimes can be seen as a shiny spot after rolling. If you paint it once first then it should dry with less sheen and not stand out when finished. Don't forget to Like, Share and Subscribe.

Oilbased undercoat works 100% never failed me in 38 yrs

[@howtopaintinfo]

Yes that works but its a case of letting it dry over night. Don't forget to Like, Share and Subscribe.

[@TheWESTSIDE1967]

@@howtopaintinfo yes but there's always other work to do so i just do first with undercoat then 2 coats of matt etc when i finish

[@mdstmouse7]

i like KIllz myself the latex is even good for most water stains, but heavier ones require the oil based stuff and boy does it stank

[@howtopaintinfo]

Some water based paints do work but yes bad or heavy stains need more attention. Don't forget to Like, Share and Subscribe.
