Very carefully and securely packaged for shipping - not always the case with paint orders online, which can leak - and, being water-based, Permagard is easy and pleasant to use. Excellent coverage of old walls providing a bright and durable finish; its two coat recommendation works as an attractive painted surface in addition to its anti-condensation qualities. Too early to give a review of the long term impact but early signs are that it will be a successful anti-condensation and anti-mould finish, feels warm and dry to touch after years of problems with the walls. I will happily revisit this review in a year or so to confirm this early promise as required. Before and after photographs supplied.
