Painting masonry (not masonry paint)

barryo · 5 Nov 2006

I'd like to paint a concrete block garden wall black but I can't find any black masonry paint listed anywhere. What should I use?

I don't see the point in applying a full render treatment before painting so I'm thinking of filling in the little holes in the blocks with a wettish mix 4 sand: 1 cement. Any better suggestions?

Any helpful advice appreciated.
