Hi,
i have a brick firesurround which i have knocked all the render off. Can anyone tell me how to clean the bricks off all the sand /cement i would like to get back to the natural brick colour to make a feature of it
many thanks
 
hard work and a hammer and chisel, followed by a wire brush..

failing that, get a sand blasting company in.. they can do it for you but it might take half the mortar out with it..
