BRICKS - BORAL MIST ANYONE? 9Aug 11, 2011 8:57 am casablanca Hi Msjones, we chose boral grey mist - don't expect the finish product to look like the display board! we are quite disappointed with the finish product. our supervisor is telling us it's not because of the cleaning process that was used. does this mean that the issue is with the manufacturer? No. Bricks should be acid washed with a pressure washer sprayed from a distance. Not up close. This is the problem. Brick washers have gotten lazy and instead ofntaking their time and cleaning it properly they take the quick route which causes more problems like broken bricks, blown away mortar and plain poor workmanship. So there is no problem with your bricks and the builder will not fixnit I'm sure. Unlessnyou have many bricks that are broken, in which case I'm sure they will replace the broken bricks resulting in unsightly mis matched mortar colours. So in picking what was a nice different brick you are left with something 'different' in the wrong sort of way. Do you have a couple of pics to show your problems? NO EXPECTATIONS, NO DISAPPOINTMENTS!
