DIY, You've been very helpful assisting me in the past. I had some concrete work done last week and I need to seal it. I also have an existing patio (stamped concrete) that needs to be sealed. In the past I used a "Glaze and Seal" product that cost about $40 per gallon. I sprayed it on and was happy with the look, but after about one year the shiney wet look has worn off. The new concrete is a sidewalk (broom finish) and a concrete wall about 16 inches tall that has a textured finish similar to the patio. It looks a bit like slate or similar stone. All concrete is colored thus I need a clear sealer. What do you recommend I use to seal the new sidewalk, wall, and existing patio? I expect I need 2 gallons total for one thorough coat.
Thanks a bunch,
Searay :o
