Seal/Waterproof Brick
Anyone recommend any brand of sealer for waterproofing chimney bricks? Looking for a product that seals water out but allows the brick to breathe?

Re: Seal/Waterproof Brick
For hard fired modern brick you will need a high VOC like Prime-A-pell 200. For interior or softer brick, ProSoCo makes some good water based ones.

Re: Seal/Waterproof Brick
I've had very good luck with ComProShield. You don't even know it's on there until it rains and the water beads up like it's running off a freshly waxed car.

Re: Seal/Waterproof Brick
I've used Weather-Guard with good results on natural stone, brick, cultured, and concrete. It's not cheap, around $95.00 per five gallons, but it doesn't leave any residue on the surface and seems to penetrate well. It's siloxane based and allows the masonry to "breathe" as well.

Re: Seal/Waterproof Brick
Try L & M chemicals. They have both water and solvent based repellents for block ,brick and concrete.
