Is there another way to color bricks ?

Yes, hardware stores sell a powder concrete dye that is mixed in when preparing the wet concrete.

Yes. Goto Lowes,Home Depot or Ace and they sell mason powder. You can mix in the batch or even coat on top of whatever your pouring and it will stain it.I have used the red powder before. Or you may use a liquid stain like Nulook. Hope it helps.

I would suggest trying Crayola.com, maybe even Amazon has it available. Look around and good luck.

I think it depends on your artistic ability and skill level. The kit comes with three colors of paint (pearl mica, inca gold, and white limestone) that you blend together with a sponge. The pearl mica is a pearlescent gray, so theoretically you could use more of that and maybe the white and not so much of the gold to get the effect you're after. And there's a base coat of black primer that you can have peak through to add to it. It's meant to have a mottled look like granite though, so if you're after a more solid look than I don't think it would work for you.

I wish! There are no instructions to do this. Only white, as far as I know.

That would most likely work. The concrete patch material is pliable but would require some type of backing during application and drying. The color is gray so I don't know what the end color would be mixed with brick dust but it would be mixable and worth a try.

Yes. I used a blue paint pen that coordinated with my color theme. A Sharpie would also work.

I can say yes to Crayola. I haven't used any other kind, but I don't see why you couldn't - basically have to keep you hands wet to mold the clay. As long as you have that type of clay, it should work.

It will form a solid patch, but as you suspect the color would be off (for me it dried a dark gray). I do not know if you can mix it with brick dust to match the coloring. I suspect that mixing it would change the consistency and then you'd have to mix in water or another liquid to maintain it. It could prove complicated, messy, and may alter the performance of the product. An alternative could be to use the patch to partially fill in the hole, and then find another product with the appropriate coloring to top the hole off with.

Hello Deb, Thank you for your inquiry. Readily mixes with water or can be blended dry into molding material such as plaster or papier mache for instant color. We do not recommend it be used any other way. Please let us know if there is anything else we can help you with. Kind Regards, Elsie Customer Service Representative S&S Worldwide

Yes you can on the roughed side only! The smooth side needs to be drawn on with sharpie or permanent marker (and make sure it DRIES before you color!) Colored Pencils actually work best for these. When you bake them, the color comes out a bit more vibrant. Hope this helps!

Use a permanent market and color in the colors he can see.....it is a great game and hope you can select a color suitable.....it will take a few minutes to color all the tiles but worth the enjoyment in the end!!

Yes, you can mix the colors and they come out beautifully. When I used it, I made a reddish brown, aqua blue and seafoam green.

I has texture, but it's paper and doesn't feel like "real" brick. From several feet away it looks like real brick

There isnt, but if you have a label maker you could do it that way or write on colored tape. Cant beat the price though! Hope this helps. :)

Yes, it's customizable as to how light or dark you want the end result to be. Also, if you layer the minerals while they are still wet, you will end up with gray areas where the white and black mix together (but dab the sponge, don't smear!).
