I would like to use a sealer on my walkway which is recycled Chicago bricks. Does anyone have a favorite product?

Do you have any pictures? I have a couple products in mind which we use professionally. Depending on condition size and budget restrictions, I would be more than happy to make suggestions.

Cobble Coat is what I see a lot of the professional sealing companies use here. The water based works best as the pavers get a lot of moisture from the ground up and the solvent based ones tend to turn milky/cloudy.

Here's a picture. It was just powerwashed but over the course of a year and especially during the summer rainy season in SW Florida, it gets filthy with mold and algae.

No suggestions, but want to see suggestions. Have similar stoop on house in shade/moist area and same issues.

Will be following. We have a Chicago brick walk as well. I have to powerwash a couple of times a year.

Seal Krete works well.




My tongue swore, but my mind was still unpledged.

I think I read somewhere that silica based concrete/brick sealers are better than acrylic based sealers.
