It allows for the only practical, rapid, nondestructive evaluation of comparative water-repellency in the field. Properly conducted, the test procedure allows for a quantitative evaluation Of water repellency Of both the masonry unit and the unit/mortar interfaces. Traditional test procedures have consisted Of: . The masonry surface should be clean, dry and free from poorly adhered coatings and/or partially spalled masonry fragments. 2. Roll out a bead of the putty to approximately 1/4" diameter and 6" length. Attach the putty to the flat brim Of the tube. 3. Firmly press the tube with the attached putty to the surface. Press in any putty that extrudes to form a tight seal. 4. Fill the tube with water to the appropriate level, ensuring no air is trapped inside the body.
