    Anti-damp paint, anti-mould paint: which to apply first?

    Hi all, I have a boiler question. It's only about five years old and I've never had an issue with it until today - that is the central heating no longer works. I was using my wireless unit (see pic). When flicking between the sun, moon and off settings, you could hear the usual *click* in...
