INTERNAL WALLS: PREPARATION OF SUBSTRATES OLD WALLS PAINTED WITH TRANSPIRANT WATER-BASED PAINT SUBSTRATES WITH A “CRUMBLY” SURFACE Procedure Prepare the walls by mechanically removing all traces of surface dust and or areas where surface is loose or detached portions to obtain a clean, solid, strong substrate. Restore the areas where surface has been removed to bring the substrate back to its original condition. Wait until the skimming mortar has completely cured, if applied, and prime the substrate. If no areas of substrate need to be restored, or if priming only is deemed sufficient after...
