Default Exposing internal stone wall

replying to Michael McNeil, Looking160 wrote:
I dont think sealing a wall is appropriate Michael. Walls need to breath, they
take moisture in & let it out. Sealing will leave wall damp as no escape,
crumble & then structural damage caused. I think rub on some kind of oil on
the stone, it brings it out & stays looking darker for some time
