Excerpt from Review of Test Methods, Performance Requirements and Materials for Consolidating Degraded Masonry Surfaces
Weathering of masonry surfaces, improper cleaning procedures, chemical attack and use of inappropriate coating systems can result in a deteriorated, weakened surface and loss of material When a weakened masonry surface is to be coated, special preparation is required because application of most coatings directly to a deteriorated surface may lead to failure. Two approaches for the preparation of a deteriorated surface are 1) removal of the deteriorated layer and 2) consolidation of this layer. Although the former approach is the preferred method according to the American Concrete Institute it is not always feasible to blast or otherwise remove the degraded surface layer.
