Microporous paint functions as a high-performing breathable coating which developers designed to protect exterior timber surfaces including windows and doors by enabling water vapor to escape while blocking liquid water penetration.
The wood remains protected from moisture buildup because this process enables air circulation which stops moisture accumulation that leads to rot and blistering and peeling.
The main difference between conventional paints and microporous paints is that the latter allows wood to move naturally which results in better durability and extended maintenance periods for heritage timber windows used in UK weather conditions.
