I highly recommend the FA's low gloss sealer, based on my experience. I applied it to my outdoor patio and walkways. After 6 weeks, water still beads nicely, the concrete has a nice sheen and I have no complaints about the overall appearance. I used a paint roller and waited the prescribed time before applying a second coat. I was careful not to allow the product to puddle in any areas except in the concrete's relief cracks. The cracks took about a week to fully dry, and appeared milky at first, but ultimately cleared up. The concrete has freckles when wet, suggesting an uneven level of sealer protection. I therefore regret not having applied a third coat, and will do so sometime later this year. I purchased the low gloss version of this sealer, with plans to use it on both concrete and brick. It was not apparent to me from the online descriptions that low gloss was not for brick, but the container's label instructions specifically state do NOT use on brick. So I was forced to also purchase a brick sealer. I decided to stay with the FA line, but, unfortunately, their brick sealer leaves a matte finish. Although I would have been happier with an equivalent sheen on the brick, I'm finding that version of the sealer is also performing well. I do have a complaint about the packaging. I purchased the concrete sealer in 5 gallon tubs, the kind made by Letica and often used for equivalent volumes of paint. The instructions on the concrete sealer label are to stir well, but, to do so, the lid needs to be cut away in order to get into the bucket. Cutting the lid is very difficult and makes it unusable, so the pour spout is worthless, and keeping the container closed becomes a challenge. I was hesitant about buying this brand because of the price, but after reading online reviews of competing products, I decided that I didn't want to risk any similar negative experiences. As long as you follow directions and don't allow excess material to puddle, you'll likely find that the protection is worth the price.. David In The Bluegrass. . 2023-01-05 17:52:06
