Testing

Now apply the prepared tint to a sample piece of masonry and allow to dry. You can also use a heat gun if you wish, but ensure you do not scorch the surface.
If your test patch is too dark you can dilute your tint solution…

You can then try the tint on a larger sample, or if you feel confident then start tinting your masonry.
If you do not feel confident enough to start on your brickwork or masonry then try practicing using just clean water, this will give you a good ‘feel’ for how the tint will perform. However, remember to let these areas fully dry out prior to carrying out any tinting work.
