Here is the back of my house. We just had it pointed and the person waterproofed the upper red section with a clear coat. We are trying to figure out what to do with the bottom, blue section. I am asking my Dad (who is here helping) to see if he can scrape/grind the paint off and then we can waterproof the original brick. Another option is painting each brick with a coat of red paint to match the red paint up above. (FYI, the upper section was painted a similar red to what the brick is, and portions of the red paint are there and some are missing, but it looks generally good). I don’t want to lose the brick look by slopping a whole nother coat of paint over the lower section. Thoughts?
