 Posted: Thu Oct 15, 2009 1:37 pm Post subject: Hammerite on brickwork |
 |
|
| I want to paint a couple of rows of bricks at the base of the outside walls of my house. Several people have suggested I use Hammerite, but the tin states that it is for metal only. Would I be OK using it on brickwork, or is there a better alternative. |

LES EATON,
Use a microporous masonry paint.

LES EATON,
No most paints are not micro-porous especially hammerite.

Les
In any event masonry paint means masonry paint not metal paint.
