Brick is a common house surface or foundation that can be painted if the correct product is chosen. Also concrete and masonry are common foundation surfaces that use the same products as brick.There are two premium exterior paint products for specific surfaces such as these that can be applied to provide superior durability.
The first product Master Protect HB 400 was mentioned in a prior post regarding stucco. This product is common among the four surfaces as it expands and contrasts and allows water vapor to escape from the surface that prevents peeling and blistering.
The second product is Benjamin Moore Aura Waterborne exterior paint. Here is a link for this product:
