Q: What kind of paint do you use to whitewash brick?

• <div><p>When it comes to painting your bricks, you&rsquo;ve got a few options. Traditionally, lime wash (a mix of aged, burned, and crushed lime and water) was used to whitewash brick or stone. You can also find premixed brick whitewash paint that cuts out a few steps and lets you get started faster. However, for the best results, we recommend using a DIY whitewash (white acrylic paint mixed with water).</p></div>

Q: How does limewash compare to whitewash?

• <div><p>Limewash and whitewash often appear together in a quick search when looking for ways to paint brick&mdash;so, what&rsquo;s the difference? <a href="https://www.angi.com/articles/what-limewash-paint.htm">Limewash paint</a> is one of the most natural and environmentally friendly ways to paint brick. It&rsquo;s made from limestone and water, giving it an off-white appearance that looks similar to whitewash. However, limewash is semi-permanent, whereas whitewash is a more permanent, watered-down version of existing paint. </p><p>Both brick paint options are economical and light in color, but if you want to change the appearance of your home&rsquo;s brick in the future, then limewash might be a better option.</p></div>

Q: What are the downsides of brick staining?

• <div><p>The downsides of brick staining include a complex process and lengthy application. Also, if your brick is damaged or already contains a non-porous sealant or paint, staining won&rsquo;t be an option as it won&rsquo;t be able to absorb properly.</p></div>

Q: Should I paint a fireplace with a roller or brush?

• <div><p>You should use an angled brush to first paint the mortar lines, then go in with a high-density roller to evenly paint the bricks one at a time. You can also use a flat paintbrush to paint individual bricks, but a roller is faster and easier to use thanks to its longer handle and wider surface area for coating the bricks. To finish, go in with the paint brush for edges or hard-to-reach areas.</p></div>

Q: Can you stain red brick white?

• <div><p>You can turn a red brick white through a process called whitewashing. Whitewash isn&rsquo;t a stain but rather is made from water and white latex paint. Adding more water to the mix will make the solution look lighter when applied, and adding more paint will make it look more white. </p></div>
