FAQ's
Can I paint over old masonry paint?
After old flaking paint has been removed, ensure surfaces are clean and dry. Grease or oil on the surface will bleed through the new masonry paint, interfering with the longevity of the paint and causing it to discolour. Apply a fungicidal wash, to clean the surfaces before applying paint.
Do I need an undercoat for masonry paint?
You should be sure to first put down a coat of Paintmaster stabilising primer on your masonry. These primers are usually oil based. Your primer is going to serve as a protective coat as well as an additional binding agent for your masonry paint. Once you’ve let your primer dry, you can start with your masonry paint
Is masonry paint the same as concrete paint?
