How to paint brick walls?

[Elyna]

Hi I’m planning to paint garage walls for a tidy look. Any recommendations on products like what will primer and paint will be best to use on brick . This will be my first ever DIY project. I have never done painting before. Have been watching lots of you tube videos so I’ll give it a go.
