Hello there guys, wondering if anyone could offer up some advice please. I recently discovered when pulling down our front bed the roof had damp patches which were quite bad. I did a damp test and managed to find the problem area which was a leak coming in from a perished seal on the radio aerial on the roof. I've since repaired the leak (Sikflex 512) and all the roof wallboards are now bone dry thankfully. Problem I now have is the damp staining.
I would like to paint it but have no idea which is the best paint to use. Would I need an undercoat first? The roof on the rest of the van is an off-white colour so ideally like to keep it as close to that colour as possible. Just not sure what best, oil based, emulsion, matt, vinyl, eggshell etc etc.
Appreciate any guidance....
