Hints and Tips

Efflorescence

Efflorescence is caused by the crystallisation of salts found in building materials such as bricks. Remove fluffy efflorescence deposits with a coarse hessian sacking. Repeat the process every few days until no more appears. It is best not to use solvent based paints on new buildings for at least a year, as the substrate must be dry in depth.
