This is, by far, the nicest and most natural faux brick wall using Home Depot panels that I've seen on KZfaq. I've been tempted by the expensive masonite 'brick' panels that would total $1500-2000 for my accent wall. This is incredibly affordable yet seems to look great (at least from afar, lol). I also really appreciate the paint vs joint compound info. The compound method seems incredibly messy plus still requires a sealer. 😵

Thank you! Our shelves are actually hung up by joist hangers on the side walls so there isn't anything where the brick panels are. I'm not sure if a stud finder would work but it might cuz the panels are pretty thin. But if you don't have one you could find a switch or power outlet which are usually attached to stud and measure 16inches from there since studs are usually 16 inches apart. We knew where ours were based on the nail holes in the crown molding. Hope that's helpful!

And if you don't want to change the grout color then yes I would try to match it so you can hide your seams!

I can see where you're getting at but if I used less paint you'd be able to see the brush strokes or bare spots even after distressing so I needed the bricks to be completely opaque to get the look I was going for. Also if you don't wait for the paint to dry enough all that's going to do is smear the paint around giving you more of a white wash look rather than distressed. You don't have to wait long for it to dry but you need some of the paint to actually stick to the bricks not just smear all over.

Hi Madison! I can't post a picture on here but if you want I can send you a picture of the custom color formula possibly through email? I have mine in the about me on my page. I tried to type the formula out but it just looks really confusing lol.

Did you put the Drydex in the grout lines around the faux brick and then paint? It looks thick in the grout lines. I purchased rather pricey faux panels for a fireplace but they look to yellowy for the grayish white room they were installed in. The manufacturer told me I will void the warranty if I alter the panels which are a high-density polyurethane. Trying to come up with a solution without damaging the faux panels. Prefer this look over the panel we purchased. I wish I could send you a pic for some advice. Thanks. Show less

The only place I put the Drydex was down the one seam, and slightly to the left and right of the seam to blend it in. But not around all the other bricks

This may be a stupid question, but did you use a damp sponge to wipe it or was it dry? I really want to make sure I do it correctly😂

Lol not a stupid question! I used a damp sponge I actually had a bucket of water with me that way I could rinse off the paint quickly otherwise your sponge will just get full of paint and smear all around.

What paint did you use?
@AmyLynn12 жыл бұрын
I just used Zinsser FastPrime2 primer & sealer. You can see a picture of the can at 0:26 seconds. Honestly you can use any white paint you want I just recommend a flat or matte white. I just used that one because I already had it at home. And for the brick color paint I went to Sherwin Williams with a cut off brick from the panel and had them color match it and just got a sample size of paint. Hope that helps!
