I would like to paint the exterior walls of my house as I think it will really make the difference when I come to sell it next year as it isn't painted at the moment and when I did a test part it looked really nice.
I was planning on using Sandtex masonry paint but when I read the back it said it wasn't to be used on common or fletton bricks-how do I know what mine are?
Has anyone had any experience of painting normal external bricks, is it really likely to cause issues?

cheers
