EverBuild 406 Stabilising Solution 5 Litre

Product Information

I was doing same repair work prior to painting a couple of weeks ago, used the Toupret Ex filler , it's superb For larger areas of filler I roughly smoothed over, then again used the paintbrush to texture and blend in the filler. Just scraping over with a knife will leave a smooth area which will show through the paint You should then be able to paint the wall as normal with 2 regular coats of masonry paint but keep an eye out for any signs of bubbling in the weeks after. This would indicate a high density of moisture content that is trying to force its way out.

Scrape off as much as you can and let it dry-out naturally, which could take a long time, before attempting to redecorate. One coat should normally be sufficient but very porous surfaces may require additional coats. Drying time will vary depending on the ambient temperature, but normally 4 – 8 hours should be allowed for each coat to fully dry. For the best results allow surfaces to cure for a minimum of 24 hours before applying the Weatherflex Smooth Masonry Paint. DO NOT apply when air or surface temperatures are below 8 °C. Kingfisher “Weatherflex Stabilising Solution” is available in 5 litre plastic containers. It should be stored in a cool, dry area, AVOID frost and direct sunlight. Shelf life of the product in, unopened sealed containers is 12 months.Remove as much as the dust as you can with a dry brush and scraper and see how it looks. If the surface is fairly solid try priming it with a thinned coat of masonry paint. If that goes OK proceed with over-painting. If it’s still loose you may have to seal the areas affected with a stabilising solution – but only as a last resort. Eventually I repainted with a water based masonry paint. Every year since then the paint has bubbled and I have had to scrape and repaint.

In such cases, I always recommend that the wall is left exposed to weather for at least 12 months prior to painting.For our situation it is a little too soon to tell the success of Lakeland’s stabilising solution on our bathroom problem wall area. This one wall area (a small cluster of patches) is particularly troublesome with a gradual peeling and bubbling appearance (under the painted surface) And this taking time to reappear once you cover with a fresh coat of paint. However what we have noticed is the Lakeland’s stabilising solution is not only pleasant and odourless —and oddly almost as transparent as tap water—and you're not sure if this only a water that you’re applying : ) However a noticeable difference is apparent once we painted over Lakeland's stabilising solution with white pigmented organic emulsion paint There seems to be a far more opaque surface quality that seems to suggest that not only is Lakeland's stabilising solution useful for troublesome unstable or damp patches on many types of wall surfaces but also this medium improves the colour density of the applied painted areas. Allows painting of new render finishes and re-pointing repairs without alkaline contamination of the paint, which would otherwise delay painting by up to 2 months. If this be the case then scrape off any loos paint, allow to dry out over a period of a few weeks and paint again. You may well find this is an ongoing process or it may be isolated to one or two problem areas.
