El problema del salitre lo resolvimos en casa cambiando los primeros 60 centímetros de ladrillo por tabicón (un ladrillo de cemento)…luego se enjarra y pinta normal., esto evita la absorción de humedad desde el suelo salitrozo de la costa…saludos

We have had a small amount of it in the past and never repaired it until we painted the whole house. Do you think it’s related to being an ocean community? Good to know how to fix it. Thanks

I guess we don’t have it…. yet. If you have it, do you have to get rid of it? Is it unhealthy? Or just bad to look at? I went back and read your original post and will have to let Bill know about that. Thanks Nancy!

So that’s what that ugly stuff is. I have it in the bedroom.

I wish it were a new one for me. I’ve got more will to live with it than you do, I don’t want to go through all that. Someone pointed at a Rorschach splotch on the kitchen wall the other day and said “what’s that?” Age I replied, it’s just house wrinkles. I’ve decided it adds character. Anything unpleasant adds character, at least the way my mother saw the world. I’m getting there.
