Painting blocks and masonary in garage

[miked1]

Hello

I plan to paint the concrete blocks on the inside of my garage and one wall made of brick that used to be my gable end (before I added extension.)

In a warehouse I was in recently, they had painted the concrete block in a silver coloured paint that literally looked as though it had pieces of egg-shell in it. It looks very robust for a garage, so anyone know what it is?

From searching this forum, I plan to give 1st coat with 20% water and then a full second coat. No sealing or primer needed for the block/brick.

Please let me know if I should be doing anything different!

Many thanks
Mike

the paint u seen sounds like potaflex used in schools and other high risk place where graffiti is a prob a good masonary paint is best used and u can top coat it with a v/silk for extra lastin against grime
