How can I change the color of red brick?
I am redoing my landscape into a more modern contemporary look - using grey, silver, blues. However, I have about 3000 red bricks. Instead of the cost and effort of replacing them, I'd like to find an effective way to change the color and still look natural (no paint). Can I stain them? Making them pink would be worse, so acceptable colors are the concrete color (i.e. sidewalk), brown, tan or grey. Or would it be better to apply a thin layer of concrete? How does concrete stick to brick? Thanks for your help!!
Ideally you should consider paint. But remember, once painted it is darn near impossible to remove without expensive measures being taken. ...»
Can you provide a photo of the walls your looking to do? Perhaps In fact I know many folks here will have all sorts of ideas that you did not even think about once they know that exactly it is that your doing.
