Wire brush
Once you have stripped off the

loose particles need removing.
You do this by using a wire
brush; this can be speeded up
by using a wire brush
attachment on a 110V drill.

If the walls hacked off have had a damp
course treatment, they will still require a salt
neutraliser treatment on the brickwork prior to
plastering.
This stops any salts called efflorescence
working their way to the face of the newly
plastered wall.
