Color of brick?

13 years ago

Is this painted brick or a lighter color brick? If it isn't painted, can you tell me the color of the brick? Thank you.

The brick was painted using a process from Boral Bricks called "pastel cote". The material is thicker than regular paint, but not as thick as stucco. I don't think Boral still sells this product though. You could probably get the same look using a talented stucco subcontractor.

Hi, really nice looking porch. I know it's been a while since you posted here, but I found out the Masterwall now sells the former Pastelcote "product/brand" -- would you be able to please tell me what color was used on this porch? I can't quite tell given the daylight. Thanks so much!

See the thread above. The color from Pastel Cote was "sand" I believe.
