What primer should I use on a bathroom ceiling with mould before painting with Dulux Bathroom paint?

home improvement

I’ve got mould on my bathroom ceiling (walls are fine), and I’m planning to repaint using Dulux Bathroom paint. I already have a mould remover spray and will be treating the ceiling first, but I want to make sure I’m using the right primer/sealer afterwards so the mould doesn’t bleed through or come back.

For anyone who’s dealt with this:

What primer works best for a bathroom ceiling that’s had mould?

Do I need a stain‑blocking or mould‑resistant primer?

Anything else I should do after using the mould spray and before priming?
