Anyway to contact you directly for questions? Just started painting exterior homes and I have been running into some problems..

It really is!

مبروك فوز المغرب فعلتم المستحيل وافرحتم قلوبنا .. نحن في امريكا كنا نشجع ونفرح معكم

Same here!!

“The best” would not put paint on brick. You can stain brick. Paint is amateur move.

Welcome!

good luck!

You're welcome!

Glad you liked it!

Hi Tomas, yes, the color was Benjamin Moore's Evening Dove 2128-30

grab a roller with a big fat nap to make sure you can really get it into the places that need to be painted.

@tinasimmons2190 - Have you done it yet? Ours is the same, and the amount that should've been sufficient for the entire house only covered one wall and took 5 days for it to be 100% covered without gaps. We wish we never started.

Please don't paint brick!

Hey Dakkon, we did a project profile on this beautiful home as well -- check it out! kzfaq.info/get/bejne/kLZ3gq2UqJyRgac.html

Unless you have any staining or problem areas, priming brick isn't usually necessary.

I strongly recommend as a professional painter. You should go over your work to make sure it's done right an that the paint sticks properly.

we use a 2-in-1 in this video and its held up very well. If you have any concerns about the coverage do a coat of primer for safety

great question. We've had great experiences with both Benjamin Moore and Sherwin Williams, in our area of Ann Arbor these are the two we've trusted for many many years

Thank you for watching!

Just use caulk

Don't use silicone for masonry needs

Hi Sheena! Has the brickwork been painted before?

@@TribblePaintingCompanyHi there! No, it's the original brick.

Same question as Sheena. 1920s yellow bungalow with brick which is virgin. Brick is combo-smooth surface combined with very rough linear surface "parallel" lines.

Hi ChicagoA, Unless the brick has some issue like staining, we have always just applied two coats of paint. This has been our process for over 30 years with no issues. Do you have a brick project you plan to paint this year?

Some Paint is a self primer which means you dont need to prime since the paint is a primer itself. If not then primer is needed or else the paint wont adhere as best

latex/acrylic are water based

Hi Derren, It is Evening Dove 2128-30 by Benjamin Moore

Hi Melinda, this occurs often on the north side of homes where the sun never reaches. You should probably just plan a yearly wash cycle, or whenever you start to see the green reappearing. You could mix a bleach and water solution in a garden sprayer, 2 parts water to one part bleach, spray it on and maybe even scrub it with a stiff bristled brush and then hose or powerwash off. There are also some commercially made premixed products that can be purchased at your local hardware or big box stores. Products with Zinc in them are perfect for moss removal. the zinc with eventually kill the moss and it will fall off. This could take some time so with this type of product don't be surprised if you spray it on and it takes multiple months for the moss to fall off. This is different from the powerwash process. Best of luck.

@@TribblePaintingCompany thank you for the info! We had a guy come who sprayed it with a heavy concentration of sodium hypochlorite then “soft washed” it. A lot of paint came off. Well maybe not a lot but some here and there. But it does look quite a bit better overall.

We don't have any first hand experience with Beyond Paint and can't say one way or the other. We may have to do a video testing it out!

@@TribblePaintingCompany what kind of paint do you use?

We use Wooster brand.

with our BM products supplied from trusted sources, we haven't had an issue in over 30 years with brick. We've had nothing but good experiences with their 2-in-1

Shouldn't be painted ever lol

Hello! If you need help on selecting a color, you can speak to a color consultant. Our local paint store has a color consultant who does virtual and in person color consultations. We would recommend contacting your local paint store to see if they have a consultant on staff.

@@TribblePaintingCompany awesome. Thanks for the info.

Stain it

If your brick was already painted you won’t be able to stain

Don't paint it. Traps in moisture and your paint job is gone. Stain it. A simple google search of should you paint brick will tell you.

Grey blue paint

Hi Allen, It is Evening Dove 2128-30 by Benjamin Moore

Usually a year so the brick will be weathered properly.

30 days minimum.

Thanks, Capt. Obvious.

you dont always have to roll, unless your shit with the sprayer. or you've put too much paint. brick absorbs paint quiet well so rolling isn't too necessary

Agree wholeheartedly. Brick is porous and it needs to breath. Moisture from behind will permeate through it and peel the paint faster than you want to experience.

​@@dondonaldson1684 Unless the brick was laid properly, and there is an airflow between the brick and the vapor barrier with proper weep holes

​@@dondonaldson1684don't comment like a clown if you don't know what you are talking about

@@satturatedphatjust stain it, or white wash

Sometimes you have to. I don't understand why that's so hard

Hi Steve, thank you for watching our video. Are you not a fan of painting brick?

Why not?

@@TribblePaintingCompany When it comes time to tuck point the house, the paint will have to be removed! Which adds to the cost.. brick is beautiful just the way it is!

@@franksliwa362 are you assuming brick will fail, or do you prefer the look of natural brick? Michigan is known for its weather but we haven’t seen a single issue in 30+ years
