Can You Paint Pavestone

Yes, pavers can be painted, but as you’ve probably noticed there are a lot of downsides to it.

What kind of paint do you use on pavers?

For pavers made from stone, concrete or cement, you need a cement or concrete paint. Cement paint contains ingredients that let the paint stick better to stone surfaces. Acrylic cement paints have a stronger finish that holds up well to exposure. Use cement or concrete primer before applying the paint.

Can you paint over outdoor pavers?

Yes, you can paint cement pavers with the right preparation and materials. Painting cement pavers often involves applying a bonding primer before adding exterior paints to them. Use a concrete primer to prep the pavers, allowing them to dry fully after a concrete prime coat has been applied.
