Painting a shower area but not tiling at the moment
Anonymous user 09/03/2024 - 2.43 PM
Just had shower area freshly plastered but not able to tile yet due to finances. Can I paint the walls when completely dried with a bathroom paint, and will this be able to keep the walls dry when showering? Thanks for any advice. P.s I'm aware I have to prime the walls initially but will a bathroom paint top coat be waterproof enough?
Are you a tradesperson and able to answer this question?
