Dust or Drop Sheets for surrounding areas. Bush you are happy to work with and watered down Masonry or Emulsion or Chalk Paint. Practice on odd bricks if concerned. Most of the time the paint is drawn in first time, so wait until it dries before deciding whether to add another coat or just the odd brick here and there.
