How To Paint A Stone Fireplace White. Once the second coat was dry, i touched up any areas that looked a bit streaky…remember the stone is porous and it. So, clean the stone with tsp, rinse well and allow at least 24 hours to dry.
It is so simple and easy! Once that is dry just apply the water based paint of your choice, we used glidden swan white (semi gloss). We recommend using 1 litre fireplace paint & 500ml primer when painting an average size surround only.
And i don’t want to highlight the brick or stone with a shine.
It wouldn’t have offended me so much if it didn’t have 80s pink hues blended in. I used a 50:50 water/paint ratio.

We used a watered down chalk paint by annie sloan, in the color paris grey to paint over the existing stone.
