I would like to bring out the red colour in these bricks - what’s the best way to do so?
I’m using them as garden edging, should I wait until I’ve built the edging first or clean them up before hand?
thanks in advance!
Hello @domonique
It appears that your bricks still have a bit of mortar attached to the bricks. I propose cleaning the bricks first before putting them in the ground. I suggest using a Craftright 2 Piece Cold Chisel Set to break off the mortar that is still attached to its surface. I then recommend using Trojan 5x15 Row Stainless Steel Wire Brush to remove the mortar residue on it surface. Your final cleaning step will be to wash the brick in water and detergent then rinsing it off with a power washer.
If you need further assistance, please let us know.
