I hope you went for a zero VOC anti mould paint. They're expensive as hell but worth it from what I understand.

I'm currently fighting mould in the bedroom. I have no idea where it's coming from, but I suspect it's to do with the chimney stack ventillator, and my neighbours dodgy ensuite-shower

If it's the same as us, you might have contract paint which is moisture absorbant... (I'm an expert now because a professsional told me a few things)

So, it might be just a wipe down and need "proper" paint

But, yeah, get the good stuff.

Oh, and don't bother with odourless paint, it's worse because of the chemicals added to remove the smell. So you breathe in more of it...
