Poly on bricks?!?!?

11/14/2008 12:24 AM Faron79

Not trying to be harsh here...just curious.

Why did you apply Polyurethane to bricks?!
Where was this used...inside or outside? Wall or other item?

Polyurethanes will "cloud", and/or start peeling if moisture is coming through. This makes poly's very poor choices for brick surfaces. They just can't breathe very well.

UGL makes good brick/concrete sealers that do a good job of sealing & holding-up to effloressence & salt deposits.

In all honesty, I'd try to strip off that oil poly! It'll be nothing but a maintenance headache...
