For its elements to function effectively, they need to penetrate into the pores of a surface. <\/p>\n\n\n\n<ul><li>Loose dirt, paint, etc., prevent Drylok from adhering firmly to a surface.&nbsp;Peeling Drylok is not only ugly, but it&rsquo;s also useless. Moreover, the old Drylok prevents the new coat from bonding to the wall. So, the new coat will be loose and quickly peel off just like the old coat.&nbsp;The composition of efflorescence also prevents Drylok from adhering to a surface.&nbsp;<\/li><\/ul>\n\n\n\n<ul><li>Cracks and holes are defects that should be corrected because they can grow into bigger structural issues.
