Thank you for choosing Romabio, and for taking the time to post a review of our product! We are glad you are happy with the results of your project. It is unfortunate that the application was not as you expected. For future knowledge it may help to work in smaller sections; wet the brick paint while wet and distress then move to the next small section.
