We've been working over 6 months on the schoolhouse's interior brick walls and I'm so excited to finally share all of this! Like all things restoring this school, the brick sent me down so many internet research rabbit holes and I'm so relieved to be DONE. And relieved that the brick doesn't shed anymore!
The process:
After Brad, our mason, removed the plaster haze off the brick with an angle grinder and wire wheel brush, we tested 8 different products to try and achieve a leathered, matte look that "sealed" the brick so that the walls don't shed dust for years and years to come.
*The best products: *
Step 1: Limeworks Waterglass (www.limeworks.us/) - Again, thanks SO much to Anthony for all his help over their customer support chat!
Step 2: Aqua Mix Stone Enhancer (Expensive if you buy from the hardware store, more affordable if you buy directly from their site and in bulk)
Also check out @woodwardthrowbacks new book, "Throwbacks Home" for more exposed brick and refurbished decor inspo!
Finally, if you're looking for an amazing tile installer or a mason in the central Indiana area, please don't hesitate to send me a message! (schoolhomestead@gmail.com)
