    How can you stop algae and mould from coming back?<\/h4>\n

    After having properly cleaned and dried the surface for treatment, apply HYDROREP ECO<\/strong><\/a> which is a water-repellent product by FILA with a natural effect. It creates a barrier which prevents algae and mould from growing, whilst allowing the material to retain its own essential breathability.<\/p>\n

     <\/p>\n

    Let\u2019s go through the treatment together:<\/h4>\n
      \n
    1. Apply a coat of undiluted product to the clean dry wall, impregnating the material thoroughly with a brush or airless pump. If your wall is made from terracotta, exposed brickwork, stone or plaster, one litre of product will be sufficient to cover a surface area of 10-20 sq.m., whilst for concrete one litre of product will cover 8-10 sq.m. of wall.<\/li>\n
    2. Before the product dries, make sure is no residue. If there is any left, dab it with a clean cloth to remove.<\/li>\n
    3. After only 4 hours, your surface will be dry and protected.<\/li>\n<\/ol>\n
