"After the brick has been cleaned with a heavy duty cleaner like TSP to remove any contaminants from the Surface we recommend priming with a Masonry Primer (generally an acrylic primer). Once primed follow with two coats of an interior acrylic latex paint in the color and sheen of your choice." Prendergast, J. Painting Interior Brick. http://www.paintstore.com/drpaint/1742.html
