David Nauta: I used this 5 gallons to seal a 20'x40' apron and a 10'x40' section. Application was easy and no special additives are required. Just give the 5 gallon bucket a good shaking and then pour it in a self pumping sprayer and go to work. After 24 hours, water beaded up on the concrete. Best to apply this product in the cool part of the day.

myshell: Easy to apply. I have a new concrete driveway which this was applied to, used a sprayer and first coat dried quickly and put second coat on before it dried, did have some beading but soft bristled broom them off. Next rain water beaded nicely and stayed on the surface for quite a while so obviously this product does what it says. Only complaint I have is I used the square footage guideline and had a 5 gallon bucket I didn't open, cost $51 to send back Fed Ex.

Kayna M. Popnoe: Our original intent was to seal the natural stone pool coping; yet, we ended up using it for other outdoor areas with natural stone too. Our pool technician told us what we should use to seal the coping and after doing our own research we found this product. We were pleased that different sizes could be purchased for flexibility purposes. We used rollers (1/2" nap) to apply the liquid on the coping and a sprayer elsewhere. Clean up is easy as it is a water based product. As the instructions state, after application make sure there is at least 24 hours of no moisture for curing purposes. This was our first time using a stone sealer so we are hopeful it works as designed.

Loanbandit: Did not get a delivery notice from Amazon to rate the delivery. Driver laid box on its side despite large arrows and wording indicating not to do that. If Amazon is interested, they can review the footage from their blink camera I have installed.

Got this for a 650 sq ft brick patio with brick seating that was a few years old and never sealed. Better penetrating sealants are not fancy cuz they are usually clear, still require 2 coats and I easily sprayed this on. This product will also keep sand from disappearing! Correct me if I’m wrong but I could not even find a similar commercial sealant boasting it would last 7-10 years. Everything else hints at only lasting 3-5 years. The exception was Eagle that lists virtually nothing like solids count or how long it’s expected to last but it’s super cheap. Siloxane penetrating sealants are available in gloss, wet and matte but only expect it to last 3 or so years which is similar to the topical coatings at similar costs. Using the inexpensive Lowes 3/4 gal spray tank it took about 2 hours to apply 2 good coats. 2nd coat is applied while 1st coat still appears wet and I found no need for a roller brush even on a small section...

Jack Porter: I put in a new large double driveway with slightly lighter coloring in the mix about 6 years ago and wanted to maintain the new looking appearance of the driveway as it is a main visual element looking at our house from the street. I did considerable research on sealers and every contractor and company has their own favorite. I also wanted something that did not have to be redone every year or two in order to minimize ongoing maintenance. This product stated it has a life of 7 to 10 years which fit my criteria. I read others reviews, contacted the manufacturer with questions and was satisfied. I used SX5000 WB and purchased a quality backpack SOLO sprayer for application. I applied it to my open face (light brush finish) concrete driveway and patio closely following the recommendations for preparation and application.
After three years it has both met and exceeded my expectations and looks great. No dark mold, or scaling, is clean looking, attractive, and quickly shed water for the first year and a half to two. That was anticipated to lessen per the manufacturer though. It still sheds water and drys faster than normal driveways without this sealant but not as it did the first...
