Glad it helped!

Thanks CCS! Hope it turns out awesome for you and congrats on your new digs!

Glad it was helpful!

Thanks Saleem!

Awesome! So glad it worked for you!

Let us know how it goes!

Thank you!

My fireplace had a lot of nooks and crannies too so I had to dab in a lot of those crevices. I am not sure about a sprayer. It might work well, but I haven't tried it. It might depend on the vicoscity of the paint in terms of coverage. Let us know how it goes!

Thank you! I used the white glitter.

Hope it turns out great!

Great! Some have asked us if we use our fireplace (i.e. with fire) and we do not. If you plan to, you can consider high heat paint. It might not be necessary since the exterior stone facade may not get that hot.

@@alwaysbelearning5655 on this type it doesn't get hot so it shouldn't be an issue or I would definitely use a high heat paint it's field stone with stones up to 2ft across so I'm looking forward to trying your technique out.

@@alwaysbelearning5655 so I got the fireplace done and have had no issues with heat but like I said before there is alot of rock between the inside and the outside 👍 the technique worked beautifully tho

Thank you!

Thank you!

Thanks Gerry!

Glad you found it helpful! I used white sparkle.

Thanks Adriana!

Thanks Julia! We didn't paint the inside of the hearth but did paint the hearth extension. The paint stayed on fine with a brush but you may consider a roller to get a smooth texture.

Thanks Christina!

Thanks Luann!

The can of paint we used is shown in the video. However you may consider using heat proof paint if you want to continue using the fireplace in the future for heat.

Hi Factualclass! Here is a link to the glitter we used: www.amazon.com/Hemway-Additive-Emulsion-Interior-Exterior/dp/B07B3LLWDP

Thanks riz1312! Hard to say. If it is quartz panels, I was wondering if it already looks pretty awesome? You could apply the glitter using a clear coat, but I have never tried it so I wouldn't know how well it would work in your situation.

It is white glitter. They have other colors as well so you can choose one that will go well with your paint.

Glad you liked the video. No, the glitter doesn't come off when you touch it since we applied it while the paint wast still a bit wet and we also used the paint itself to apply the glitter.

It was called Hemway White Glitter Paint Additive.

Thanks francesca05i! We waited about 2 hrs. It probably depends how much moisture you use when you clean.

Hi Jonda! You could paint over existing paint by following the same procecure as shown in the video (primer first, then paint). However, my concern with doing that is losing the texture of the stone that you have by adding several layers of primer & paint. Perhaps you could try getting a small amount of paint and testing it in an inconspicuous area (such as the side or bottom) and seeing if you like the resulting texture? Having said that, if you look at the final texture of my fireplace stone in the video, I don't think it would be a problem adding at least 1-2 more coats of paint, but in your case it may depend on the current state of your stone surface. You may also need to check to see if any areas of existing paint are chipping away in which case you should at least sand of any loose bits. Alternatively, you could first remove the existing paint using a few different methods. There are mechanical ways of removing paint (sanding, pressure wash, or sand blast) and chemical ways (solvents) and if you go to your local paint store, they should be able to provide you with different options.

I understand why you are hesitant! We felt the same way before we did it. It's up to each person to decide if they want to commit to a project like this. It would be difficult to remove the paint after (although maybe possible depending on the condition of your fireplace but you might need to call a professional). It also depends if you actively use the fireplace (we do not). For our situation, it turned out great and we have no regrets.

Thanks! We did not use heat resistant paint but that could be a good idea if you intend to use the fireplace in the future.

Sure! Here is a link to the product on Amazon www.amazon.com/Hemway-Additive-Emulsion-Interior-Exterior/dp/B07B3LLWDP

Thanks Q Crafts!

I haven't used the fireplace since painting it so I can guarantee it. They do have heat resistant paint for sale if you want to look into that.

We used a flat white paint. In the video, you will see we applied the sparkle using a dabbing technique where we would wet a paint brush, dip it in the sparkle and then dab it over the still wet paint.

Hi Chris! We used a roller for the flat areas since that will allow for a smoother finish.

Hi Cheryl! We used matte paint. Fyi, they also have heat resistant paint if you plan on using the fireplace in the future.

Hi Charlene, we bought the glitter from Hemway and the color was just called white.

That's a good idea! Maybe we will do that.

Good question Ohio Lady! Hard to say without seeing it, but if your fireplace stones/bricks don't get hot, it should be ok.

@@alwaysbelearning5655 Thank you! I will let you know how it goes!

Great question! To be honest, I am not 100% sure, but from a search, the term Fieldstone Fireplace yielded the results that look closest to our fireplace.

Sure! What's your question?

We cleaned the stones before painting by using a damp cloth and wiping them down.

We used flat.

😅

We used ultra white semi glass paint. If you plan on using the fireplace, you can also check out heat resistant paint.
