Painting exterior concrete will need expertise and the set of right tools. You will need a wire brush, roller, paintbrush, soapy water, primer, and masonry paint. Then, just like normal painting, you will have to clean the surface, apply primer and then apply the main paint. This is just a brief on how to paint exterior concrete foundation. I can elaborate on the entire process next.
How to Paint Exterior Concrete Foundation Wall?
There are just three steps followed to complete the exterior concrete foundation wall painting and they are:
First, clean the surface first. You better scrub it with a wire brush or stiff bristle brush to remove dirt, debris, and any loose paint, then wash it with a mixture of water and mild detergent and leave it to dry
Once the surface is dry, apply a high-quality concrete primer. Use a roller to cover larger areas and a brush to get into edges or textured spots. Make sure to use the instructions mentioned on the primer packet. Apply one or two coats of it as you feel right.
The next and final step is to paint the foundation wall. Use a roller to apply the main paint (better to use epoxy-baed paint). Make sure to paint in even strokes and let the first coat dry completely. If you want, apply for a second coat only after the first coat dries completely.
Now the process might seem super easy but trust me, it is not. If you do not apply the primer or paint properly, paint marks will be clearly visible, so I will suggest you hire professionals for it.
