Dryzone Dryshield Cream - Salt-Resistant Damp-Resistant Cream

Breathable, Salt-Resistant Damp-Resistant Cream for Internal Wall Renovation

Dryzone Dryshield Cream is a breathable, water-repellent cream specifically designed for use on internal walls following the installation of a damp-proof course. It works by lining the pores of the substrate, preventing damp and salt contamination from migrating to decorative finishes such as plaster and paint. Ideal for use with cementitious renovation plasters or Dryzone Renovation Plasters, it creates a long-lasting barrier against residual dampness while allowing walls to breathe.
