Hi, I have a question and wondered if you nice people could help me please. I repointed a wall in my garden recently and it was my first time repointing. I got all the mortar inbetween the bricks but I also got more than I would like smeared on the face of the bricks (lesson learned I need to be neater and clean up more before its set).
I've bought some brick/mortar cleaner hydrochloric acid stuff. My question is can I get away with putting it in a pump sprayer, covering the whole wall then rinse off with water and attack with a brush? Or do I need to carefully apply it to just the bricks being extremly careful not to get it on the mortar beds?
Its a single skin non retaining wall.
Thanks Groofus
