Hi, hope someone can give me some advise.
A few years ago we had the attic all replastered after stripping down the wallpaper. We noticed a damp patch on the chimney breast and just assumed it was the plaster taking time to dry out. After painting it and that damp patch coming and going, i did lots of research and found it was hygroscopic salts, the damp patch tastes salty too, i licked the wall hee hee![Wink ;) ;)](data:image/gif;base64,R0lGODlhAQABAIAAAAAAAP///yH5BAEAAAAALAAAAAABAAEAAAIBRAA7)
Anyway, im sick of having the dehumidifier on all the time so sanded down the paint, right back to the plaster and sprayed some Salt Neutraliser on the chimney breast. The damp patch is still there!!!!! I was hoping to save money this way. Ive sprayed it several times now![Crying :cry: :cry:](data:image/gif;base64,R0lGODlhAQABAIAAAAAAAP///yH5BAEAAAAALAAAAAABAAEAAAIBRAA7)

Please help. Its only the top corner of the attic chimney breast but that damp patch shows through on magnolia painted walls.
