Joe, your logic is slightly skewed. Firstly, siliconates don't form a complete impermeable barrier to rising damp. They work by a process called viscous fingering which means that voids are left in the brickwork for moisture to continue its journey up the wall. The best you can hope for is to slow down the rising damp complex to a point whereby an equilibrium is reached because the moisture is evaporating as quickly as its rising. Even after injection it would take approximately six months for the wall to dry out so you're explanation of a 'miracle' overnight cure goes against how we know these systems to work. Secondly, siliconates take time to cure, it doesn't happen overnight and they only form the barrier once cured.
The only logical explanation for your rapid success in curing this problem is change in occupancy.
