Full details
Cementone Paving Sealer is an essential solution for homeowners and professionals looking to protect exterior paved surfaces like concrete, brick, and tiles. This solvent-based acrylic sealer excels at preventing staining from water, oil, and grease while subtly enhancing the natural color of your stone, though users should note it requires the use of white spirit for cleanup and proper surface ventilation during application.

FAQs
Can I use this on indoor floors?
This product is designed for exterior use. Due to the solvent-based nature, it is not recommended for indoor areas.
How long should I wait before driving on my driveway?
You should wait at least 24 hours after application before allowing vehicular traffic on the sealed surface.
Does this sealer make the paving slippery?
When applied correctly as a thin, penetrating coat, it should not significantly alter the slip resistance of standard paving.
Can I apply this over existing sealer?
It is best to test a small, inconspicuous area first to ensure compatibility, or strip the old sealer if it is failing.
What is the best way to clean my brushes?
Use white spirit for all cleanup; water will not be effective for this solvent-based product.
Does it change the color of the tiles?
It enhances the natural color, giving it a slightly richer or 'wet-look' appearance depending on the surface material.
Troubleshooting
Sealer appears milky or cloudy after application
This usually indicates the product was applied over a damp surface. Ensure the substrate is bone-dry before application.
Tools are stuck or hard to clean
Soak brushes or rollers thoroughly in white spirit immediately after use to break down the acrylic base.
Product is taking longer than 4 hours to dry
Low temperatures or high humidity can slow down solvent evaporation. Ensure application is performed within the +5°C to +30°C window.

Setup, Compatibility & Care
To begin application, ensure the surface is clean, dry, and free of any moss, lichen, or oil stains. Use a brush or roller to apply the sealer evenly across the area, ensuring you do not leave pools of liquid on the surface. For maintenance, keep the area free of heavy debris buildup. If the sealer begins to wear after several years, the surface can generally be cleaned and resealed. Note that all application tools, including brushes and rollers, must be cleaned immediately after use using white spirit, as the acrylic solution will harden significantly once set.
