I want to paint an outside bare brick wall white.
I intend to use a watered down exterior paint for the first coat and the second coat will be non watered down.
I have half a tub of interior white emulsion that is not needed - Whats the worse that could happen if I was to use that for the first watered down coat??
I thought as the brick is currently bare, the first coat shout be watered down to "seal" th ebricks.. Or something like that?
New or sound bare surfaces should be sealed with a thinned first coat of the Weathershield masonry paint (smooth or textured) to ensure good adhesion of the finishing coat(s). Surfaces that remain powdery, friable or chalky after thorough preparation should be sealed with a coat of Dulux Weathershield Stabilising Primer, but never seal sound, new or bare surfaces with stabilising primer as it will do more harm than good.
