Stabilizing Solution really does the job!
My house was built in approx. 1930 and it has an old brick fireplace that is no longer used, but has remained for decorative element. Considering its age, moisture most likely got to the mortar and the sand grains crumble at the slightest touch. I discovered the ECOS Stabilizing Solution from a earth-friendly blogger and I have to admit - I was a little skeptical at the claims of stabilizing the brick at first. I applied the solution with a brush and it was a little messy due to the thinness of the solution, but clean up was a cinch. I was afraid too that the solution was going to change my brick to a darker color as it appeared to do so when it went on wet, but this was not true. My brick dried back to the original color that was on it. It dried quickly and it most definitely stopped all the crumbling that I had before application. I am so happy to have found an earth-friendly, solution for my crumbling brick - especially since this is in my small son's bedroom. I am so happy I found ECOS Paints and will definitely use them again as well as recommend ECOS to my friends!
