    You also have to remember condensation on the walls could also be caused by room temperature being colder than inside the tub. Think of how house windows fog up in winter.


    High humidity is ok. Just make sure it's not stagnant air in addition to that high humidity.
    Africa has pretty high humidity on average.

    Personally I like a little condensation on my tubs, but if it's bugging you then you can wait about an hour after spraying the tubs and just wipe the excess off the sides with a paper towel.

    I havent sprayed any water in the tubs but I am using cypress for substrata and I had large water bowls in the tubs there was no gap where the tubs meet the shelf.

    Oh ok, then you should be able to just wipe the tubs after condensation has built, alternatively you can also remove moisture from the cypress by letting it dry out in the oven or over a heat lamp prior to introduction.
