Abstract
The inappropriate cleaning and waterproofing of masonry buildings is a major cause of deterioration. While both treatments may be appropriate in some cases, they may cause serious deterioration in others. The purpose of this leaflet is to provide guidance on the techniques of cleaning and waterproofing, and to explain the consequences of their inappropriate use. -- CAL
