SuperSeal30 Gloss 5 Gallon

Looking to seal a new paving stone driveway. Looking for the wet look - this sealer seems to have very good review. Do you ship to Canada (Edmonton, Alberta). If yes - what is the shipping cost? Can it be sprayed using a large commercial sprayer?Is there a price break on 5 5gal pails? Thanks for you help.

Quoting Rick R:

We installed our brand new stamped concrete patio and walkway about three years ago. Shortly after we sealed the whole thing with Super Seal 30. It is time to reseal (almost three years) but I noticed there are some white hazing in a few areas. Do we need to strip all the old Super Seal 30 from all the concrete in order to get a uniform look? Do we just strip from the areas that show the white hazing? Or can we just recoat over the top of everything? The only sealer ever placed on this is the Super Seal 30. If we need to strip what would you recommend?

Spot treat the white areas with the A-1 solvent. Let dry and apply a light coat over all.

We have quite a bit of stamped concrete. The areas that are not covered have very little sealer left on them, however, the ones that are under the roof still look great. Do I power wash it all and roll the Superseal30 on all of it for a uniform look or will I need to strip what looks good now? Thanks.

One coat over all should even it out.

As long as the surface is clean, there is no obvious discoloration (white haze) from a past sealer, and the surface is porous, you should be good.

Yes you can.

Most likely it will not work over the water based sealer. Depending on the type it is, you would need to remove it first.

Yes it is breathable. Did you remove the previous sealer 100% that turned white? You cannot add this product on top and have it fix the problem, which is the sealer that turned white. Sealers do not go away naturally and will need to be chemically removed. Shipping is 3-4 business days.

Maria, as you found out, it is not suggested to use the SS30 indoors due to the strong solvent odors. It is an outside sealer or can be used indoors when it is not inhabited for 3-7 days. To answer your question, this product will work: www.opwdecks.com/.../

You can apply straight from the 5 gallon pail if you remove the lid completely. Not need to shake or stir this. Your temperature is good for applying.

SuperSeal30 does not peel so it must have been seeming under the sealer that would not allow it to adhere. Not sure what you did wrong to cause this. Could have been a different sealer that was not compatible, water, etc.

Just one coat is applied at 100 sq feet per gallon. Yes you can roll is on. Would not suggest sealing the coping edge of the pool.

Good afternoon. We just closed on our home which has grey based pavers on the driveway and the pool deck. I want to seal it myself but would like to confirm how to apply this. We live in Florida. Is it as simple as just rolling it on with a 1/2 inch roller. Should I apply it really thick so that it fills in the sanded / grout joint areas. Can I also use this product on my pool deck. Thank you

If a roller is used ,how do I keep sand off the roller

Every 2-3 years. You can in the off years restore the shine of the SS30 by applying the Aromatic Solvent that we sell. This will make your current sealer look like new again.

Yo can apply the second coat the day or a week after. It does not matter.

We ship to Florida. One coat is all you need for most scenarios.

1/2 inch roller.

If you do it must be a very light coat.

The SuperSeal 30 is a cure and seal so no need to wait.

Either would work and both will enhance the appearance as if wet. The 30 is a little shinier then the 25.

i have a stamped concrete driveway - it has never been sealed for some 8 years or so. What is better to use super seal 25 or 30? any other suggestions

is the application temperature that is stated 45-100 degrees the outside temperature or surface temperature? I live in Florida and the pavers can get very hot.

Can this product be shipped to upstate my?

Is this safe for colored concrete that was poured last september (8 months ago)? also can you ship to NY?

Can this product be used over seal n lock that has lost all water repellant properties?

No it is not compliant for California.

Yes we ship to Canada

You should be able to use this sprayer at the SuperSeal30 is 30% solids and that sprayer is rated to 35% solids.

Alan, 45 degrees is the minimum.

We used this product recently on our newly installed paver patio. My wife wanted the pavers to have dimension in their coloring.

I read a bunch of reviews and decided upon the Super Seal 30. After calling the friendly representatives at OPW they were able to tell me also about the Super Grip product.

I do some DYI, but let me tell you this, you could be all thumbs and still do this type of project.

You simply follow the directions. Prep your area, make sure it is DRY afterwards.Oh, I would make sure you wear a VOC mask. This stuff is STRONG and will make your throat sore and makes a bit dizzy if you don't. I used a full face mask.

I cut in the edges like any normal paint job. Afterwards, just do overlapping 90 perpendicular rolling of the sealer and poor you are done.

Now this is one coat but with the Super Grip, you need two coats. I did not make my 1st layer too thick. Besides, with porous pavers, the material soaks in a little bit.

I mixed in the container into the 5 gallons of the mix, now I proportioned mine since I only had one 5 gallon and the first go around I used only about 1.5 - 2 gallons. Mix the powder in; its like fine sand.

Mix completely, I used a paint mixing augur (local box store for about $5). You will need it trust me. Slapped it on my drill and off to the races.

Then followed up after 4 hours with my 2nd coat this time with the Super Grip and then the next morning, I was walking on my newly finished patio.

I will say though, it won't be slick glossy wet look on porous pavers. It is not like our stamped concrete sidewalks. Still, it does make the pavers look like after they have been washed down, the color pops and there is some shine.

Overall, very happy, total work time for 360 sq foot, (pre included) 5 hours without the dry time. Paver patio, hard edge set, inside pavers are drainage bed, and torpedo sand set. 1 to 5 (5 hard project) 2 to 3 because you will need to get some items (VOC mask and auger)

I hope this helps someone else, good luck with your DYI.

Can you tell me how slick Acid Stained Concrete with High Gloss is?

Should a second coat be applied and will this possibly create a clouding effect over the next few years sooner? Will a second coat make it more slippery?
thank you ,
Mike

IS THE SEALER WATER OR OIL BASED?

I am concerned with how slippery my stamped concrete becomes in the rain/snow after sealing. Do you have a suggestion to help mitigate this?

Can you ship to Canada? Alberta

The product application includes brick. does this mean clay brick or does it also include concrete unit pavers?
Thanks

It will work but may dry a little uneven. This is because of the different porosity throughout the natural stone. I would suggest test spotting a small areas first. Worst case scenario is a light second coat to even the shine out.

How long does the shine last on the pavers? Would I be able to get this begin of next week? I like to get the high gloss,is it protective from snow,car oils?

Thank You

Can I use this (SuperSeal 30) on a driveway with normal family car traffic?
