Will this product permanently or temporarily stain red brick?

We did buy this product but we haven't used it yet so we don't know. Sorry.

We have not used the product yet, however we used something similar and it did not stain our stonework.

I put some in between red stepping stones and it didnt stain them when I did it. they are almost like bricks too.

I dont know for sure but I tend to doubt it. once mixed, it's a translucent murky-clear solution. like you added water to a milk carton. except maybe clearer.

I'd test a small area first, to check that this doesn't stain. Remember that this is a deterrent, not a "poison".

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.

The label specifically says: Do not use on asphalt, plastic, natuarl rubber or FABRIC, or on painted or recently stained surfaces. It is for wood, concrete, and brick.

I use it on my wooden deck every time and I've not had a problem. It doesn't even discolor it. Get a sheet of cement backer-board (used under floor tiling) to put underneath if you're worried.

My cement tile roof in South Florida was badly stained with black mold. I applied this product to the roof last March 2013, and virtually all of the staining has disappeared by Sept 2013. I plan to apply a second treatment to the very few spots that still remain. This is a remarkably good product.

It will definitely adhere to the brick. I have used it inside my fireplaces on several new homes to keep the firebox black. It will eventually burn off in some places on so I just repaint it every couple of years.

You can use it on sandstone to make it stain and water repellent. It is not guaranteed to stop sandstone from crumbling Mike

It depends on the depth of the stain. These remove an extremely small layer. You also need to seal granite every 6 months to avoid stains.

I am only an ignorant male, so I may not be qualified to answer. That said, my resident interior decorator has used it on a couple of outside benches (in addition to our butcher block). She frequently sits on the bench in summer and I am sure that if there had been the slightest bit of staining I would have known instantly.

I don't think so. Once bleach has touched your carpet or clothing etc that is pretty much how it will remain. Bleach is permanent, unless you chose to try and dye it. I don't recommend dyeing your carpet.

You might try rubbing the painted wood with a wet rag to see if it is color fast. If so, the polyurethane should do ok.

It may stain unsealed grout, but not permanently. Rinse off quickly and it shouldn't stain.

No! It also stains hands, clothes, face, whatever it touches. Don't buy this product if you are intending to play with it.

Yes and between bricks as well. It didn't discolor the bricks or the stones. Just make sure that you spread it as often as directed. I removed the stones first and then added the preen but also just tossed it on and it seems to be working well.

No it's pretty much permanent after it dries. Youight be able to get it to a gooey consistensy if you soaked the book or paper it is on in water

I was sealing brick steps to my front door last year. I put 2 coats on the steps. We had many weeks of ice, snow with temps in the lower single digits for 3 weeks at a time. This year it has been very hot and humid and these steps are in the hot sun until mid-afternoon. The product is still working since it is absorbed into the brick. Brick surface must be clean and dry before applying. I power washed my steps first and let them completely dry. My steps cover a very big area. You can try some and see if it will work on the brick you have!!! That's what I did and it worked for me!
