Brick Transformations Kit- Whitewashed

I am so pleased with the results from the Giani Brick Transformations kit! It is a top-notch product that has thorough instructions and all the necessary components at an affordable price. If all you want to paint is your fireplace, you will save time and money using this kit versus finding and paying for each of the components that might include more than you need. Anyone can do this project; you can't mess it up. I did the standard ratio and wiped the paint off, and these are my results. The horizontal bricks are the *tiniest* bit whiter, but I don't mind it. The instructions do say to use less paint when working horizontally because the paint will soak up faster. If I had cared that much, I could have easily gone back and added a bit more to the top OR I could probably very lightly sand/buff the bottom. It's very adaptable. It updated our traditional fireplace and lightened up the whole room. Highly recommend!

Comes with everything you need and can customize the depth of color. I did a very sheer coat and love it. Very easy and if you don’t use much on your brush it is super clean to use. I probably didn’t even need to tape. I basically dry brushed it on

This little kit may seem simple, but it took all of the guess work out of doing it right. I worried I would not have enough paint or that it may be messy. It was so incredibly easy. It only took me a couple of hours while I was watching tv. The most challenging part is actually cleaning the fireplace before you begin. Once the brick is ready, it’s very quick and is complete within 24 hours and ready to decorate. I am including before and after. The third picture is Easter and changed the look of the entire room. I would highly recommend this over guessing all the different things you will need when you would end up spending probably more than this. I wanted a true white washed look. If you are looking for a painted look then go out and buy the paint you want, but if you want it to truly look white washed, this did it for me. I used every bit of it to achieve this. If you want something deeper, you would have to buy another kit. For context. I have a small hearth and my fireplace is approximately 5 feet across and I have low ceilings. I highly recommend this product.

I never make reviews but I love how this came out! I washed the directional video on their website and it was very easy to follow. My bricks were extremely thirsty so this project was a 1:1 ratio with no wiping. In some spots I went over twice. The paint can looks small but this project only needed 10oz so I still have plenty left over. My one warning is that this is very messy. No matter how clean you try to be you’ll be battling drips and paint splatter. I reccomend having a clean cloth to wipe the walls if you splatter paint on them to wipe it off before it dries. I definitely had to do that several times.

This kit is great, it comes with everything you need to white wash your fireplace. Our color pallet doesn’t typically include warm tones so I wanted to mute the reds in the original fireplace and this did the trick. Easy to apply with a brush and then wipe away with the included wiping cloths. Makes the color pop and gives a fresh look for the fireplace. Since everything is included I’d say it’s well worth the money. It’s been a few months since we did it and is still holding up well. A great way to brighten the space.

I can't say enough about how much I love this product! It's rare you have something come out looking exactly like the product photos and exactly like you wanted it. I took me about 4 hours to transform the brick on our hearth. I wanted to brighten up our living room and the original oak was just too pretty to paint. This gave me the perfect alternative. I love that everything you need came included with this kit. The product was so easy to use. I just mixed 1/2 product and 1/2 water, brushed it on 7-8 bricks at a time, and then gave it quick wipe with the included rags before proceeding to the next section. Easy to use, easy clean-up, and all of the paint odor was gone by the next day. I couldn't be happier with the results! (Including BEFORE and AFTER photos.)

This worked great. Super easy to use& can’t beat the price. Finished in less than an hour.

First time homebuyer, my fireplace looked old and I couldn’t take it so I white washed it. Not the exact outcome it was looking for but definitely not a bad outcome. A lot of people comment on it positively, some more than once. Definitely a good kit if recommended it. Plus it comes with all the stuff you need so it’s very easy. Although I did run out at the end. So I did the same thing the kit says but with regular white paint and I don’t see a difference, in fact I’m not even sure where I finished with their pant and started with mine.

I did some research as I was nervous about going ahead painting and was worried about how dark our motar/grout was. I read it's a cool white colour not warm white. Instructions where easy to follow. I cleaned bricks first and preped all the areas tapping off. I did 1:1 ratio and did 6 bricks at a time. But did grout/motar first then did the brick and again motar/grout. It was very white but I immediately began rubbing away. My bricks where very difficult due to chucks and rough surfaces it took me soild 4.5 hours just applying and then rubbing off. I found i ended up using another damp cloth and the process worked for the result I wanted. Very pleased with the results. I would recommend this product. Pack has everything you need although i did use another cloth soft cloth that got into the cracks better for my needs . I recommend testing smaller area so you can get the result you want. 16oz can covered this area 1:1 ration in hindsight I would have gone 1:2 paint to water for my effect I wanted maybe would have saved some rubbing process. But very happy brightens the space and wish I had done it sooner.

Worked like a charm! So happy with these product, I would definitely recommend !

Transformed what was a large block of relatively ugly brickwork into a lovely feature. Only took an hour with two people. Good product.
