This is the answer to the question How to remove efflorescence?
Revision 1
We also have a straw-colored brick, the wall under the balcony soaked through with melting snow. In the spring, the water drainage problem was completely fixed, the wall dried out, and there was a horrible buildup. On a hot day, I washed it with Deoxyl-2, it dried quickly, and the effusion completely disappeared.
But some of the bricks either completely or partially changed color to a darker color. This is no longer from the flush, but from the fact that the brick was soaked. It's been 2 years, in dry times the bricks are all light, in wet times they are darker, but gradually the bricks are leveling out – burned out in the sun. When I was looking for a solution to the problem, I read that when the house will turn on the heating – all the efflorescence will pass – over the years, the brick burns in the sun and ages, good brick – beautifully aged, if you eliminate the water supply – and efflorescence itself will disappear.
