Has anyone sprayed a breeze block wall? Any other ideas how to cover it quicker? Right hand side covered a lit better as it's a less porous smoother brick. Wish I'd never started

Best answer
Buy a cheap paint sprayer off amazon. (£20ish) use watered down emulsion in layers. Works bang on.

Use masonry paint and load the roller up and put a even coat on.

I'm using masonry paint and a masonry roller. Seems to be absorbing paint quickly but not coating very well. I'll keep at it though

Whose wall is it? Cause if it’s the neighbours you need permission before painting it. If it’s all good a deep pile masonry roller and a lot of paint will cover it you just need patience and a good few coats
