Brick tinting

by **marty** » Sat Apr 23, 2011 1:07 pm

My house had an extension some years ago and the upper floor brickwork does not match (lighter although same brick) the lower floor.

Does anyone know if there are any products available to tint the lighter bricks which I could apply myself.

You could try aquaseal,it will coat the bricks with a long lasting silicone film

Would this darken the bricks ?

It will slightly darken the bricks and mortar,it might need a couple of coats
