Hi all
We had a drive wall done probably about two years ago block on flat and with a sand cement render.
I put some watered down oil based external paint on (watered down with white spirits) and then some full coat toos - looked great initially of course
Over time though its going green - you can see the salts of the cement coming through and it just looks horrible now - obviously is damp comming through it now and I can see it being a problem (as it was previously too) - the eatth is all on one side of the wall if that makes sense where next doors drive is on a higher level
Is there anything I can put on it to help the paint stick or any product I can use - I was thinking about tanking it or something
