How do I clean the sealed surface?

Clean the sealed surface with mild soap and water. Avoid using harsh chemicals or abrasive cleaners.

Can I use Smartseal Block Paving Sealer on my patio?

Troubleshooting

Sealer appears cloudy or white after application.

This is often due to applying the sealer in damp conditions or too thickly. Ensure the surface is completely dry before application and apply thin, even coats.

Sealer is not adhering properly.

Ensure the surface was thoroughly cleaned and free of any previous sealers or contaminants. Use a primer if necessary.

Slippery surface.

Avoid over-application. If the surface is slippery, it may be due to excess sealer. Allow it to dry completely and consider applying a non-slip additive during the next application.

Weeds growing through the sealer.

Ensure the surface was properly prepared before application. Reapply the sealer, making sure to cover all areas thoroughly. Consider using a weed killer before reapplication.
