The hearth on my fireplace looks dull. I would like to enhance it to match the rest of the fireplace. Can I use a stain or is there a color enhancer available?

What type of brick? Maybe all it needs is a good wash?
I washed my brick fireplace and painted it with polyurethane that sealed it and gave it a slight sheen and brought out the color of the bricks. I have been very happy with it.
Yes you can use Minwax. The brick will absorb the color.. Home Depot sells a brick/stone sealer in the contractor section that works well on brick. My friend uses this about every 5 years to. Keep her brick shiny.
Can you provide more details
