This is how I managed to get some really disgusting old green paint (30+ years) off the brick work on the front of a house. This was the best stuff I found to do the job as a DIY'er so just wanted to share it. Below are LINKS to the product I used on Amazon. Thanks for watching.

People that paint brick are the same people that carpet hardwood floors.

Thank you so much for this video! I'm 64 yrs old and I want to strip the paint off my fireplace and after some researching I was becoming discouraged. By far your tutorial is the best. I feel encouraged that I can tackle this job. Thank you so much!!!

Thanks considering doing this on a balcony before I repaint. Brick walls, concrete floor. Definitely good to see my options and how long each step will take. The walls may not need doing but the floor is peeling.

I had thought only sandblasting was still available as an option. Glad to see that other options are available that work. I just cringe when I see a painted brick house. Just pains me. Especially so if the interior is just lovely.

Sometimes people buy houses that were previously owned and had things done to them which they might not choose to do themselves. Very occasionally perfection is not an available option and one is forced to make compromises.

why would you ever paint brick

@davidandrews9902 7 жыл бұрын

Some walls are solid. Painting was used as a method to prevent moisture ingress.

right now i have re-paint my house with protection painting a brick wall with paint to protect ur brick work for 15 years if u dont u can get damp and rot in ur house ive come looking on video like this to remove and repaint with primer and main masonry paint to protect my house for few more years dont really need to paint ur house just need to add the protection paint to keep the damp and mold from entering the house or damaging ur brick work. Im painting my house to add value for selling the property making it looked well maintained.

For older bricks, would this approach risk damaging the bricks? After the initial layer comes off, could the rest be accomplished with only the bristle brush?

@eBikeSales 9 жыл бұрын

The wire brush tool in the drill does seem to take off a small amount of the face of the brick as the water goes red. I guess a lighter wire brush would be more gentle but would take more time, on the bricks I have anyhow

@susanparker3699 8 жыл бұрын

+Kenneth Kopczyk It likely would be less damaging than sand blasting. My parents had a wall sandblasted and the brick was old, soft brick. It did strip some of the surface away. It might look better than the horrific painted brick monstrous atrocity.

What made you choose the 7 over the 1 or two? I am trying to decide what will be the best for me to do a whole house. I do not have the budget to repoint the brick afterwards . Thanks for a great video.

Is this the best way to do it if your bricks are going up? A latter would not be safe to do that much work? I need to do the front of my house but the bricks go up instead of side ways.

Your probably better getting a tester pack and trying it out.

Seems like a lot of work.. and a lot of time, could have used a walnut sandblaster and done that in about 15 minutes

@eBikeSales 9 жыл бұрын

But probably would have had to hiresomeone in or a sandblasting machine & compressor and would have had to screen off the whole area in a busy street, this whole job cost me £90, so it was the cheapest and easiest solution for me
