Thompsons One Coat Patio and Block Paving Seal 5L

Product Information

The water-based acrylic coating can be used on paths, patios, natural stone and concrete, protecting the surfaces from rain, oil, sun and organic growth. It gives quite a glossy finish, especially when two or three coats are applied. However, if your patio is quite porous, you may find that with just one coat it’s still relatively matt.

It can be used in bathrooms and kitchens with stone or slate floors, as well as on concrete, slate, patios and other porous surfaces. The finished effect looks as though the stone is damp, which brings out richer tones and colours. Whereas the majority of sealers leave a mid to high-gloss finish, the Pro-Kleen PatioSeal barely alters the appearance of the stones. This makes it one of the best patio sealers on the market if you want to achieve a matt look on your patio. Choose dry time of year. As mentioned, you need a dry spell (preferably of at least a week) when applying patio sealer to make sure you get the best results.Apply two to three coats (depending on instructions) and leave sufficient time to dry between coats.

It can be used over many different patio surfaces including sandstone, limestone and concrete. On most surfaces, it dries to a clear and subtle matt sheen finish with limited gloss.P102 Keep out of reach of children.P101 If medical advice is needed, have product container or label at hand.P280 Wear protective gloves/protective clothing/eye protection/face protection.P210 Keep away from heat, hot surfaces, sparks, open flames and other ignition sources.

It comes as 2 x 5 L bottles, which, according to the manufacturer, is sufficient to cover 100 m ² (each bottle covers 50 m²). However, in reality it is unlikely to achieve such expansive coverage.

Instead of water, these resins are mixed with solvents like xylene. If you want to avoid a gloss finish, the Pro-Kleen PatioSeal dries matt, leaving almost no trace on the paving at all. The more coats of gloss sealer that are applied, the glossier it will be. Most products recommend using two to three coats of sealer. One coat may not be enough to create a durable seal.Clean Up:Remove as much product as possible from application equipment before cleaning.
