When painting any previously unpainted surface you should first use an appropriate primer. Stop by a local paint dealer and ask which is appropriate. This will save headaches later. Ask for the proper finish as well. Yes, this surface can be painted and if you were in the states I could give you a better idea of available products.
When painting a stone fireplace, it is essential to use the right type of paint to ensure durability and longevity. For a cut stone fireplace that you want to paint white, opt for a high-quality latex paint.
Before applying the paint, be sure to use a suitable masonry primer or undercoat to ensure proper adhesion and coverage. A latex-based primer designed for masonry surfaces is recommended for this purpose. This undercoat will help the paint adhere better to the stone surface, enhance coverage, and provide a stable base for the paint to bond to the porous stone material.
When choosing the paint finish, a satin or semi-gloss sheen is commonly preferred for a fireplace as it offers both durability and ease of cleaning. These finishes also allow the paint to withstand the heat generated by the fireplace without compromising the color or finish.
