How can I paint brick tile in the entryway so it won't crack?

Did you use a prime coat? What type of paint did you use?

Hi there, Use Brick and Tile Paint.

When you say brick tile are you referring to terracotta tile? Did you use the paint made for tile that are sold in kits made for that sold at home depot. It's a 2 part epoxy?

I think.you used the wrong paint. Is the paint cracking or the tile? Did you prime first? Painting brick and painting tile are very different, especially on floor in high traffic, only last so long.
