B391 Posted April 6, 2021 Report Share Posted April 6, 2021 Hi, Please can anyone recommend a product to seal an interior brick wall. I have just had a porch built and we decided to keep the exposed brickwork on the inside. I want to seal to minimise brick dust etc. I was thinking about a wash of PVA but not sure if that is the best solution. Thanks Quote Link to comment Share on other sites More sharing options...
Scully Posted April 6, 2021 Report Share Posted April 6, 2021 There are many in the market, but a couple ( or as many as you like ) of coats of stabiliser solution should do it. Quote Link to comment Share on other sites More sharing options...
JKD Posted April 6, 2021 Report Share Posted April 6, 2021 There are suitable sealants available in the giant DIY store beginning with B, where you have to Q a lot 😉 It'll be in the outside building section, if your local one is a big store, on the shelves alongside mortar additives.

moondoggy Posted April 6, 2021 Report Share Posted April 6, 2021 (edited) I have the same problem and have just come across this: - https://www.kingfisheruk.com/interior-brick-and-dust-sealer-matt-finish-item-26bds5#26bds5 Not tried it yet, but it has excellent write ups. Also, importantly for me, it claims it is breathable. Another point is that it seals the brickwork against staining. This is also very important to us as a couple of our exposed walls are in our kitchen. We have exposed some Georgian walls, raked out the old cement mortar back down to the original lime mortar and repointed using lime mortar. Being mostly Georgian brick, it is very soft and produces dust easily. So, I am thinking of giving this product a go.
