Note
Generally the cause of efflorescence on the walls surface is the brick masonry, which is due to the quality of bricks, sand and water, If the effect of efflorescence on the brick masonry seems to be very high then proper care should be taken to control the efflorescence by applying Dubond’s Hydro Prime Single Coat. The efflorescence problem on brick masonry if exists impairs the bonding of Prime Putty as is with any other product.
