Perma-White Interior
Zinsser Perma-White Interior: The Premium Anti-Mould Film, Tinted in Atelier Colour
A water-based interior paint with the mildewcide bonded into the dried film — not sprayed on top. This is what Pico X Health applies on virtually every interior wall in our Signature service line.
✓ Every Pico X Health Signature service is applied with Zinsser.
What it is, in plain terms
Perma-White Interior is Zinsser's flagship interior film. The headline feature is a bonded mildewcide — chemistry that lives inside the dried paint rather than on the surface. Practical translation: when you wipe the wall down (and in a Singapore kitchen or bathroom, you will), the mould resistance does not wash off.

Where we use it
- HDB & BTO interiors — every room except wet-zone tile junctions (those get WaterTite LX first).
- Condo bedrooms & living rooms — eggshell on walls, matte on ceilings, satin for soft glow.
- Kitchens — backsplash perimeter walls where periodic wipe-down is expected.
- Anti-mould remediation — after fungicidal wash and stabilisation.
Atelier colours that work especially well
The warm-white family is our most-specified Perma-White tint band — they hide micro-imperfections, sit cleanly under both daylight and warm LED, and reflect enough light to keep small HDB rooms feeling open.
What we don't tell you on a billboard
Perma-White is not magic. It does not fix a wall that is wet on the inside. If your bedroom corner is mouldy because of a leaking AC line or a planter wall pushing water through the slab, we route you to WaterTite LX (or a separate remedial scope) before any topcoat. Paint is the last 10% — substrate health is the first 90%.
