As long as you replace the lid on the container and securely close it, when not in use, and also protect it from frost, it should last for 2 or 3 years and will be perfectly suitable for any re-coating that may be necessary at that time.

All of our sealants can be applied by a brush, roller or airless sprayer.

We supply full instructions with each order and detailed instructions are available from the download section on this site. The instructions from the download section also give full details of coverage, durability and maintenance of the specific product.

This really depends on the way your paving is used.

Clearly, sealer on a patio will last longer than sealer on a driveway. Likewise, if your driveway has only light use with a small car leaving and returning once a day, your sealer will last much longer than if it has much heavier or commercial use.

On average, we would say that the sealer on block paving, pattern imprinted concrete, stone, slate, clay paviours etc will last in the region of two to four years before it needs some re-coating. However, you could well find that only the areas worn by vehicular traffic and foot traffic need re-coating as lightly used areas may still be in perfect condition. Our products are all designed so that it is easy to re-coat these worn areas.

Stripping of the surface is NOT required before recoating. InvisiSeal is different as it fully penetrates the surface, and, therefore lasts almost indefinitely. The application instructions in the Download section give full details of durability and maintenance.

At AdSeal we manufacture a complete range of sealers and impregnators for every surface.

If you have block paving or imprinted concrete, you will need our Block Paving and Imprinted Concrete Sealer. This sealer is specifically designed for these man-made products

If your paving is a stone, slate or travertine or any other natural material, you will need our Stone and Slate Sealer as it has been designed for the differing physical & chemical properties of natural materials.

For clay paviors (brick paving) you will need our Stone and Slate Sealer as clay paviors/brick pavers are made from clay, which is a natural product.

If you are looking for a high gloss or very hard wearing sealer you should choose our Heavy Duty Sealer

For a totally matt (invisible) finish choose InvisiSeal  

Eco friendly water based sealer ideal for most unglazed surface. Odour free and will imparts an attractive sheen.

Water based matt sealer can be used on most unglazed surface & is virtually odour free

How much you need will depend to a large degree upon how porous the surface is. For example an old and weathered block paving driveway will require more sealing than a brand new one as the surface has worn and become more porous. In general terms, however, you will need about 25 litres to cover 60 sqm of paving in the recommended two coats.

I’ve just had a new block paved drive laid and I’m wanting to seal it. It’s 130sq.m. and it will have 2 cars and a caravan on it on a regular basis. I’m wanting to proof it from oil leaks and stains but also enhance the colour to a sort of a ‘wet look’ without making it look too glossy. What do you recommend?

I would recommend using the Block paving SP sealer this will do what you are looking for, I would suggest getting 2 x 25 ltrs and 1 x 20 ltrs to complete the job.

We sealed our new patio with resiblock gloss sealer, the patio is grey Indian paving.
It is an absolute mess patchy and looks like we have painted old flags!! Will your stripper remove it I noticed an article where someone removed sealant using it

You will need to use the Easy strip 2000 (link below) to remove the Resiblock sealer.

Please may you advise if you have a suitable product for enhancing existing natural stone slabs without changing the overall colour. Over time, fading has occurred in some areas and we wish to bring the slabs back to their original natural buff colour without actually changing the overall colour. We are looking for a matt finish and, once this procedure has been carried out, we then wish to apply a natural stone sealant. Thank you for your advice and assistance.

Applying a coat of sealer will enhance the colour of the slabs and leave them looking as they do when they are wet.

If you apply 1 coat you will get a matte finish.
