[\/vc_column_text][vc_single_image image=”91178″ img_size=”large” add_caption=”yes” alignment=”center”][vc_column_text]Are you looking to refresh the appearance of your brick home? Changing the color of your brick is possible through various methods such as limewashing<\/a>, brick painting<\/a> or staining. Masonry stain is an easy option that involves testing the brick’s absorption, cleaning the surface, selecting a color, applying the stain, and sealing the brick. With the right tools and techniques, you can give your exterior brick a new look and bring it back to life.[\/vc_column_text][\/vc_column][vc_column width=”1\/4″][\/vc_column][\/vc_row][vc_row][vc_column width=”1\/4″][\/vc_column][vc_column width=”1\/2″ offset=”vc_col-xs-12″][vc_column_text css=”.vc_custom_1674947878583{margin-top: 15px !important;margin-bottom: 15px !important;}”]<\/p>\n

Simply spray water on part of\u00a0 the brick you want stained. If the water soaks into the brick, the brick can most likely be stained.<\/span>[\/vc_column_text][vc_custom_heading text=”STEP 2: Clean the Brick” font_container=”tag:p|font_size:20|text_align:left” google_fonts=”font_family:Roboto%3A100%2C100italic%2C300%2C300italic%2Cregular%2Citalic%2C500%2C500italic%2C700%2C700italic%2C900%2C900italic|font_style:500%20bold%20regular%3A500%3Anormal” css=”.vc_custom_1609294607654{margin-top: 0px !important;}”][vc_column_text css=”.vc_custom_1672977841964{margin-bottom: 15px !important;}”]Dust, dirt, and debris can affect the stain application outcome, so it’s important to clean the brick thoroughly before proceeding<\/a>. Use a light concrete cleaner and degreaser solution and start from the top down, using a power washer to speed up the process.<\/span>[\/vc_column_text][vc_custom_heading text=”STEP 3: Select Stain Color” font_container=”tag:p|font_size:20|text_align:left” google_fonts=”font_family:Roboto%3A100%2C100italic%2C300%2C300italic%2Cregular%2Citalic%2C500%2C500italic%2C700%2C700italic%2C900%2C900italic|font_style:500%20bold%20regular%3A500%3Anormal” css=”.vc_custom_1609295600025{margin-top: 0px !important;}”][vc_single_image image=”98233″ img_size=”large” alignment=”center”][vc_column_text css=”.vc_custom_1674948284066{margin-bottom: 15px !important;}”]Testing stain colors is important because stains are semi-transparent, and the final color will be influenced by the base color of the original brick. Use a stain trial kit<\/a> to test multiple colors until you find the perfect shade.<\/span>[\/vc_column_text][vc_column_text css=”.vc_custom_1676663506342{margin-bottom: 15px !important;}”]Check out our collection of brick stain colors<\/a>.[\/vc_column_text][vc_custom_heading text=”STEP 4: Apply the Stain” font_container=”tag:p|font_size:20|text_align:left” google_fonts=”font_family:Roboto%3A100%2C100italic%2C300%2C300italic%2Cregular%2Citalic%2C500%2C500italic%2C700%2C700italic%2C900%2C900italic|font_style:500%20bold%20regular%3A500%3Anormal” css=”.vc_custom_1609295417194{margin-top: 0px !important;}”][vc_single_image image=”91159″ img_size=”large” alignment=”center”][vc_column_text css=”.vc_custom_1674949202473{margin-bottom: 15px !important;}”]\u00a0Shake the concrete<\/a> stain well before using it. Use a plastic cup and sponge brushes to apply the stain, starting from the top and working your way down to even out any drips. Shake the container again before pouring more stain into the cup. You may need to use more stain than you anticipate, especially if you are using multiple layers or if the brick absorbs a lot of stain.<\/span>[\/vc_column_text][vc_custom_heading text=”STEP 4: Seal the Brick” font_container=”tag:p|font_size:20|text_align:left” google_fonts=”font_family:Roboto%3A100%2C100italic%2C300%2C300italic%2Cregular%2Citalic%2C500%2C500italic%2C700%2C700italic%2C900%2C900italic|font_style:500%20bold%20regular%3A500%3Anormal” css=”.vc_custom_1609300903499{margin-top: 0px !important;}”][vc_column_text css=”.vc_custom_1674949819486{margin-bottom: 15px !important;}”]Wait for at least 6 hours for the stain to dry before applying a solvent-based, satin acrylic sealer. Use a standard stain brush to apply the sealer in thin layers, starting from the top and working your way down to avoid drips. Once sealed, the brick stain color will be permanent.[\/vc_column_text][vc_single_image image=”91158″ img_size=”large” alignment=”center”][vc_tta_accordion section_title_tag=”h3″ style=”modern” color=”blue” c_icon=”” active_section=”100″ no_fill=”true” collapsible_all=”true”][vc_tta_section i_icon_fontawesome=”fas fa-chevron-down” add_icon=”true” title=”Popular Brick Stain Colors & Tips” tab_id=”1672977077154-0e9ac307-cbfd”][vc_row_inner][vc_column_inner width=”1\/4″][vc_single_image image=”96003″ img_size=”150×150″ add_caption=”yes” alignment=”center” style=”vc_box_shadow_circle” onclick=”custom_link” img_link_target=”_blank” link=”https:\/\/directcolors.com\/concrete-cleaner-degreaser\/”][\/vc_column_inner][vc_column_inner width=”1\/4″][vc_single_image image=”92608″ img_size=”150×150″ add_caption=”yes” alignment=”center” style=”vc_box_shadow_circle” onclick=”custom_link” img_link_target=”_blank” link=”https:\/\/directcolors.com\/portico-concrete-paver-stain\/?product_code=DC-POR-700&variant_id=38625″][\/vc_column_inner][vc_column_inner width=”1\/4″][vc_single_image image=”92607″ img_size=”150×150″ add_caption=”yes” alignment=”center” style=”vc_box_shadow_circle” onclick=”custom_link” img_link_target=”_blank” link=”https:\/\/directcolors.com\/portico-concrete-paver-stain\/?product_code=DC-POR-700&variant_id=38669″][\/vc_column_inner][vc_column_inner width=”1\/4″][vc_single_image image=”95651″ img_size=”150×150″ add_caption=”yes” alignment=”center” style=”vc_box_shadow_circle” onclick=”custom_link” img_link_target=”_blank” link=”https:\/\/directcolors.com\/sprayable-satin-finish-concrete-sealer\/”][\/vc_column_inner][\/vc_row_inner][vc_column_text]This customer used our Portico paver stain to change the color of their brick home. The process took four weekends to complete and covered an estimated 150 square feet. They used the charcoal color<\/a> in various layers on the bricks and the light charcoal<\/a> as a base for the mortar in between the bricks. The customer found the brick staining process to be overall easy, even though they were staining a vertical wall<\/a>. They recommend shaking the stain well and using more than you think you’ll need, especially if using multiple layers or if the surface absorbs a lot of stain. They also suggest using a normal stain brush for the sealant and applying the stain from top to bottom to avoid drips when staining a vertical surface.[\/vc_column_text][\/vc_tta_section][\/vc_tta_accordion][\/vc_column][vc_column width=”1\/4″][\/vc_column][\/vc_row][vc_row][vc_column width=”1\/4″][\/vc_column][vc_column width=”2\/4″][vc_column_text]With the right tools and techniques, you can successfully change the color of your brick home using concrete stains.
