NFT: Concrete patio sealer, looking for product recommendations.

GiantCuse : 8/4/2022 12:54 pm
We had a concrete patio put in a few years ago (Syracuse, NY) that I never got around to sealing. Anyone had luck with any of the clear sealing products out there? Would love this patio to last as long as possible. Thank you

from the dollar store that I mixed in my pump sprayer. I used it around my pool, and water beads up nicely. I can check what brand it is when I get home from work.

I also live near Syracuse, so our exposure to the elements should be similar.

Look for a penetrating concrete sealer. It's better for an outdoor application. Go to your local paint store and ask/see what they have. If that's not convenient perhaps there is a Home Depot nearby. It's not going to be cheap but it'll be worth it considering where you are located, I'm assuming a fair amount of snow :) I'm down here in north NJ and we don't get nearly what you get but snow is still an issue. You should reapply it after about 3 years for optimal protection.

specifically made for concrete, not like a Thompsons that can be used on anything. I sell a product made by Umaco called Concrete Cure & Seal. I’ve had some very good feedback on it.
