I did the same thing 2 years ago. Very skeptical about the whole thing since you cannot go back. When I wiped it off I did it with a wet rag. That took off a lot more paint. I figured that if it was too light I could go over again. Turned out awesome! You can see different tones of color bleeding through the whitewash. When I was done I painted on a coat of water based poly. I get many compliments ! Yours really looks great! I’d recommend anyone with a dark fireplace to not hesitate and do it.

I have a fireplace insert that sticks out about a foot. It gets pretty hot at times and you can touch the brick only for about 5 seconds and have to pull your hand away. Is it safe to use regular paint on the brick in this situation?

I prefer natural or red brick but I think the previous owners of my house painted the fireplace a weird orange color so I’ll either whitewash it or gray wash it because I don’t think I could do a natural patchy look.

what kinds of paint can be safely mixed with water?

Lyn San Diego 102 any water based...basically the latex paint used most on wall and trim. Floor paints tend to be oil based or acrylic for example.

@sonjawilliams4621 2 года назад

This might be a stupid question but my sofa and walls have more of a beige undertone. The wall above my fireplace is painted a beige-ish color. Can I use the same beige paint, dilute 50/50 with water and do the whitewashing, that way it isn't so white?

Moving to a house with a brick fireplace. I want to do this, can I ask why you mixed paint with water? I know nothing about paint 😂, I would have used it right out of the can.

@Mudkip_Mafia 2 года назад

It's because brick needs to breath or the paint will flake off. The water also helps it seep into the poors and it looks more true to the brick

@David_K_Dickson 4 года назад

I guess that it is a matter of personal taste, but I would rather leave the brick natural. But, hey, it would be a dull old world if we all liked exactly the same things. 🤷‍♂️ Nice video, though. Clear, concise and informative. Up to your usual high standard. 👏

It would be dependent on what type of tile if it will accept the paint.

This is the 6th video I have viewed and the only one that gives the look I want. The rest of them are sealing with 2 layers of primer, then 2 coats of paint, in the end their fireplaces look like someone applied plastic sheeting and heated it. No definition left, no texture, just a flat awful look.

@SciaticaDrums Год назад

It's really important to use stain instead of paint. The proper stain will absorb into the concrete, brick or stone. Paint won't. It will last much longer. Stain needs to be tinted, your paint/stain supplier will mix that for you.
