We propose that the parameter-free São Paulo potential be applied in studies of fusion involving weakly bound nuclei in situations in which experimental barrier distributions cannot be obtained. If one aims to study the effect of the breakup process on the fusion cross section, comparison of data with theoretical calculations requires a realistic and trustworthy bare potential. We show that the São Paulo potential has these characteristics.
