Brick Fireplace Redo
Brick wall redo with Wagner paint sprayer.
Overview
Is your brick fireplace or wood stove wall looking a bit too Brady Bunch? Change it up with a quick spray of chalk paint using the Wagner Studio Pro or FLEXiO® 5000 sprayer.
Sprayer options
Both sprayers spray chalk paint with ease and can instantly bring your brick façade into the current decade.
Prep brick
To begin, cover the floor surrounding the brick façade with a drop cloth and use painter's tape to cover corners and items you want to keep paint-free. Then, clean off the brick with a whisk broom and vacuum crevices to remove all loose dirt and dust.
Fill with paint
Fill the front end of the paint sprayer with the paint color of your choice. We used Annie Sloan chalk paint in Paris Grey.
Spray brick
Begin close to the ceiling and spray in a horizontal pattern from left to right, keeping the sprayer about three inches away from the surface. Repeat and overlap to cover thoroughly.
Spraying near floor
To paint the surface near the floor, hold the paint sprayer downward at a 45 degree angle and continue spraying in a horizontal pattern.
Fresh, new look
Brady Bunch no more. Your fireplace façade been transformed and given a fresh, updated look.
Once all brick surfaces are covered, let dry and then decorate to match your décor theme.
