I need to tuckpoint mortar on some old bricks before I prime and paint them. I heard that cement products (concrete, mortar etc) need to "cure" for several weeks before coating. How long should it cure before painting?

  • "several weeks" sounds good.

My stucco guy says 1-2 weeks, depending on weather. (Warm and dry is faster.)

If you have a chance, get a concrete-specific primer.
