Stabiliser solution from diluted wood glue?
Has anyone tried using diluted white wood glue as a stabiliser solution for powdery old mortar? When I am drilling to install wall plugs in an old brick wall built with lime mortar, and hit a joint, if I don;t have the option of drilling in a diferent place, I usually scrape away a lot of the loose mortar in the joint I've hit, blow all the dust out thenand squirt in some stabilizer solution. Then when it's dry, I pack the hole with polyfilla or cement mortar and later drill a proper small hole to take the plug. In the absexence of proprietory stabiliser solution, I often wonder if diluted white wood glue would work OK. Has anyone tried that? Luke |
