Houses and flats that are many years old frequently have obsolete kitchen and bathroom décor painted in dark colours and featuring old-fashioned decorations, which detract from the brightness and give the rooms an old-fashioned feel.
Furthermore, the kitchen and bathroom are two rooms that play a fundamental role in people's daily lives, being dedicated as they are to well-being and personal care, meaning that their decoration hasa direct influence on our mood and motivation.
At Pinturas MONTÓ we want to help you improve the appearance of your kitchen and bathroom with much more modern, luminous décor.

This tile paint is characterised by its high adhesion,resistance to knocks and rubbing and washability, which means that you can clean the tiles without any danger of the paint chipping or degrading.
