Specifically designed for walls affected by rising damp, its unique triple-action formula acts as a water-repellent, surface consolidator, and bactericide to deeply treat mineral substrates including brick, stone, concrete, and plaster.<\/p>\n<p data-path-to-node=\"12\">In the UK, masonry salts are a leading cause of renovation failure. These nitrates and salts, pulled through the wall by moisture, weaken the structure and cause paint to flake and plaster to crumble. SCALP ANTI-SALP\u00caTRE stabilises the surface and creates a durable, salt-free base, making it an essential efflorescence treatment before repainting or re-plastering.<\/p>\n<h3 data-path-to-node=\"14\"><b data-path-to-node=\"14\" data-index-in-node=\"0\">Key Benefits for Damp-Proofing &amp; Renovation<\/b><\/h3>\n<ul>\n<li data-path-to-node=\"15,0,0\">Eliminates Saltpetre at the Source: Neutralises the nitrifying bacteria and stabilises salts to stop the &#8220;white fluffy&#8221; deposits from reappearing.<\/li>\n<li data-path-to-node=\"15,1,0\">Prevents Paint &amp; Plaster Failure: Creates a stable, clear film that ensures new decorative coatings, wallpapers, and paints adhere perfectly without flaking.<\/li>\n<li data-path-to-node=\"15,2,0\">Triple-Action Formula: A 3-in-1 solution that functions as a salt neutraliser, a water-repellent barrier, and a masonry consolidator.<\/li>\n<li data-path-to-node=\"15,3,0\">Strengthens Weakened Surfaces: Deeply penetrates and reinforces friable (crumbly) plaster, cement, and brickwork damaged by damp.<\/li>\n<li data-path-to-node=\"15,4,0\">Invisible Protection: Forms a clear, transparent film that does not alter the appearance of the substrate.<\/li>\n<li data-path-to-node=\"15,5,0\">Water-Based &amp; VOC-Free: Safe for interior use in residential properties, basements, and commercial buildings.<\/li>\n<\/ul>\n<h3 data-path-to-node=\"17\"><b data-path-to-node=\"17\" data-index-in-node=\"0\">Application Instructions<\/b><\/h3>\n<ol>\n<li data-path-to-node=\"18,0,0\">Preparation: Remove all flaking paint, loose plaster, and visible salt deposits using a stiff brush.
