- There are loads of different brands of masonry paints nowadays, and it’s hard to know which one is best. In this video, I’m going to talk about some of the products I use on a regular basis as a decorator.

Great, great video! Fantastic advice from a top bloke in the trade. Well done, mate, and thanks!
Great video. The authenticity of this tradesman is at another level. Could watch him all day. He shows that trades like this are important and require skill. Well done that man.
great little video, many thanks. I’ve used a few of these and you’re right about them all. Now I’m saving up for Emperor!
How did you find the emperor paint? I thinned mine a lot to get it to flow into rough cast and it was still good opacity
Thanks for some great info.
great video. Subbed
Ap77 is pretty close to emperor imo.
It's self cleaning and hydrophobic as is emperor.
I think emperor flows a little nicer but I use xim anyway
Have you tried Leyland's Granocryl paint and if so, what are your thoughts on it?
Just come across your video whilst searching for comparisons between Sandtex and dulux weathershield and wouldn't mind a recommendation. I have a garage and the top half of my bungalow to paint. The only issue is it is textured so has a rough finish. Any recommendations would be good
Good man
What’s ur view on zinsser allcoat
Just moved into a bungalow that has had an extension, is it still advisable to use a more expensive quality paint on my outside wall which is now inside?
I have one of those roughcast, textured walls:
Can you paint over existing (very old) paint?
Do you need to put a stabilising primer on first?
You mentioned ‘breathable’ Emperor masonry paint for that external rendered wall in another video, emphasis ‘breathable’ with (Zinza?) primer.
Zinsser Peel Stop is breathable, but you're right. The ideal primer is Emperor
oil based masonry paint not for me always use water bases unless i was painting a lighthouse
6°C warmer is quite substantial👍
Find that hard to believe - any proof?
@@AldoScotiait's just hot air
@@Will-di7oe bit Torrenter is full of hot air
limewash is best always at risk of peeling and flaking paint with plastic paints cause they aint breathable
The more modern brands tend to be breathable anyway.
@@decoratorsforumuk9036 modern masonry paints aint breathable enough no way near there is earthborn silicate masonry paint proper breathable paint as breathable as limewash but only used it twice cause at £125 for 5l tint at 2.5m2 per litre for 2 coats hard to convince people but best gear around.
@@jackwardley3626 Natural mineral paints are an old-school breathable masonry paint. Brands like Keim and a few others for example.
Limewash is an even older concept and is made to deal with the old-fashioned lime render. You wouldn't use it on anything other than lime really.
Earthbourn do manufacture a silicate-based (plastic) masonry paint which I have used on occasion. You are 100% correct and it’s a great shout.
The modern breathable paints are better. Wethertex AP77 is the perfect example, which uses a silicone polymar. Not just breathable, but self-cleaning and will last for years. Plus, it's cheaper, easier to apply and a better finish.
I do get where you're coming from and I do agree that breathability is an important aspect, but unless you're dealing with an alkaline surface such as lime, modern paints are fantastic. You just need to understand them.
Appreciate the info 👍
Sandtex is utter rubbish as is weathershield. Ive tried them bot. Now switched to pliolite.
Yes, I've found this too.
You're bleeding above your heart. Near miss?
