Using Sandtex Stabilising solution is a primer/sealer for binding to chalking or friable surfaces and making them more waterproof . It is highly penetrative, meaning it will help fill up any holes in porous surfaces, allowing you to apply a paint with no problems. Always remember that applying exterior primer in the exterior surfaces of ours houses is one of the most important steps before applying any paint.

Stableizershould not be used on new block work should be primed with thinned down weather shield Using stableizer When not necessary can impede the performance If they read the instructions it will give them the answer then give a coat of water resistant sealer
