I already painted the building on the left a red primer color and building on left a grey primer color. How do I get the not colored front on left building a concrete color? as well as building on left side walls a concrete color or would the grey primer paint be same. Its just the regular primer paint.
I have used primer as a concrete color. I have also used a wide variety of the inexpensive craft paints for concrete. I have used so many different colors I can't recall which structures I've used primer on but, yes I have used primer for a concrete color. I have also used used primer to spray one of my downtown streets. I'll look and see if I can find a picture.
edit: found one!
