    Painting over already painted brick wall.
    I have a large brick wall that has a fireplace on it that was already painted a dark grey when my husband and I moved into our home, we would like to repaint it to look like an orignal brick wall. And we are not sure how to do this. Would welcome any answers you have. Thank you Diane Smith
