Thank you so much! I originally bought this kit from Amazon. But I wouldn't necessarily recommend it in terms of how much paint you get with it for the price.
If your fireplace is small it's definitely a project you can get done in a couple days. But because our fireplace is pretty large, had never really been cleaned before, and this was a project mostly done during the weekends it took me about 4 weekends to do.
So for the process, I had to scrub all of the brick and grout a few times over and vacuum in between as a lot of debris came off. Once it's all clean and dry you can start painting! It gives a ratio of how much paint : water you should mix for whatever outcome you want. I wanted most of our paint thicker than just the normal 'white washed' look as a few of our bricks were REALLY red/dark. I ended up having to get two extra buckets of paint. Our bricks had also never been treated before so they soaked up a lot of the paint, which required multiple coats to get it to not look pinkish.
It says it takes at least 14 days for the paint to completely dry if you plan on using your fireplace in the near future.
So I would definitely recommend just finding a good fireplace specific paint rather than buying a kit if you already have all of the other tools!
I hope that helps!
