How to Paint a Brick Fireplace -- Buildipedia DIY

[@HipFitSoooGood]

This was sooo helpful, thanks! I didn't want to spray paint it, like some of the other videos show. That thick roller is the key! I think I'll make a video about my fireplace painting adventure. Thanks for this video. I'm subscribed and liking!

I just used a semi gloss in antique white . Applied with a roller and brush to get it into the grout well. And it turned out awesome!

Do you have a wood burning fireplace? My fiance wants to paint it white but I would think it would look bad very quickly from the soot.

Thank you for such clear directions and information! I plan to use this video as a guide in October when we close on a dark knotty pine cabin with a dated brick fireplace.

[@bobbih2h]

Best one I've seen so far! Thank you

[@lynngroll1]

Want to add that I haven't had to touch it up and it's been 19 years!

Thank you so much for this video. We wanted to tile our fireplace but it was going to be very expensive and, so, I was wondering about painting our fireplace but was concerned about heat/fire from the fireplace and what type of paint and primer would be safe. Now, I will be painting and using the specified primer. 👍🙏🤗❤️

Thanks, very helpful video!

[@SLNabb7]

Disregard my type of paint comment as I found my response amongst other comments. Can I paint the bottom inside of the fireplace or does that make it flammable? Thank you

[@antraiday]

Good job guys.

[@matthewspeidel1349]

Love the Video! I'm a painter, I hate using sprayers.

[@rosaaguilar3033]

What if the brick has been previously painted? Sane thing? Prime with masonry primer and then acrylic paint?

[@JenniferFoleyRealtor]

Can you paint the concrete he has covered?

[@JenniferFoleyRealtor]

How much of soot do you need to remove before priming?

[@forrestfortrees]

Came for the painting tips but stayed for the clarinet soundtrack. Who made the music?

[@chelsearea851]

Still trying to find exact name of white color by Sherwin Williams... Anyone know?

[@miriamcihal8409]

What was the cleaner you used for the soot?

[@cherpierre8595]

How many coats of Concrete/masonry primer and Acrylic latex paint ?

[@SLNabb7]

What was the paint used? And how many gallons of primer and paint did it take?

[@piyushpatel1709]

what kind of paint was used to paint interior bricks of the fire place ?

[@Mutlap]

Loxon primer by Sherwin Williams

[@Simplysooney]

what color did you use?

[@briandrum1]

+Cynthia Holbert You're joking, right?

[@Simplysooney]

+Briandrum that's kind of rude you troll. there are hundreds of shades of white.

[@briandrum1]

+Cynthia Holbert 'Troll'? Who's being rude? Did you even *watch* the video when they said exactly what they used? Dolt.

[@Simplysooney]

+Briandrum does it make you feel good to be mean to people. go away

[@briandrum1]

+Cynthia Holbert How was I being mean? I asked a simple question if you were joking. You come back, call me a troll and said I was rude. Seems to me that you took my question wrong, got defensive for some unknown reason and attacked me. The internet is not for folks like you who get their panties in a bunch whenever someone says something you don't like or take the wrong way. Go whiten your teeth or something.

[@yaseengaffoor]

That white gives me anxiety to be honest

[@aboogie1445]

Now that you painted over that how do you give it a white wash look
