Armor SX5000 WB Natural-Look Penetrating Water-Based Silane Siloxane Concrete Sealer for Concrete, Brick, Pavers, and Natural Stone - 5 Gallon

This is a phenomenal product! I've used other stone and brick sealers in the past but none have compared to this. I expected to apply multiple coats but after just one application, water is beading up on the stone patio and our brick stairs. When wet, the surface is not slippery. It went on easy, we just used a roller rather than garden sprayer. Good coverage and it just has a very slight sheen. Will buy again, but mfr says it will last 2-3 years unlike the home center brands I bought before. Worth every penny!

Applied to large concrete dock and seawall in south florida. Pressure washed with commercial grade equipment 2 days before application w a 2gallon plastic sprayer made for gardening. Very, very easy application. Very very easy clean up.3 dry days later, water beading off the seawall and dock beautifully. No change to appearance of the concrete whatsoever. Very pleased so far.Highly recommend this product. Will update this review once I see this sealer get abused by florida sun, water and salt for a while.

I put in a new large double driveway with slightly lighter coloring in the mix about 6 years ago and wanted to maintain the new looking appearance of the driveway as it is a main visual element looking at our house from the street. I did considerable research on sealers and every contractor and company has their own favorite. I also wanted something that did not have to be redone every year or two in order to minimize ongoing maintenance. This product stated it has a life of 7 to 10 years which fit my criteria. I read others reviews, contacted the manufacturer with questions and was satisfied. I used SX5000 WB and purchased a quality backpack SOLO sprayer for application. I applied it to my open face (light brush finish) concrete driveway and patio closely following the recommendations for preparation and application.After three years it has both met and exceeded my expectations and looks great. No dark mold, or scaling, is clean looking, attractive, and quickly shed water for the first year and a half to two. That was anticipated to lessen per the manufacturer though. It still sheds water and drys faster than normal driveways without this sealant but not as it did the first year or two. As I over purchased what I needed and had an unopened five gallons left over, I then offered and ended up doing about half of my neighbors driveway. The difference is so obvious comparing the cleaned and sealed section of his compared to the original portion.Now three years later, I just did a light re-coating on mine again and anticipate water will bead and run off as it originally did. Checking with the manufacturer, they said this was OK as long as it was a very light application as the original sealant is still in the substrate and working. They were super helpful and knowledgeable each time. Lastly, with a good sprayer, and getting the prep work done, and following the instructions, super easy and quick to apply.So, I’m sold, driveway looks great, and this is probably the last time I’ll have to do this.Jack - Rainy Washington

This product was used to seal a new pool deck of Tremron brick pavers. I used a Chapin backpack sprayer (rechargeable) and it worked like a charm. A little “Home Depot” pesticide sprayer will not work because it delivers too little product, and you’ll be stopping every few minutes to re-pressurize the sprayer. You need some volume and to keep going. This product applied exactly as they said. It had almost no discernible odor, sprayed super evenly, and was a “snap” to clean up. The directions are easy to follow and you can’t screw up, you just need a good backpack sprayer. The application coverage was accurate to what they stated. The material did a nice job tightening up the sand between the pavers. The sealant did NOT affect the color, or sheen of the pavers. They look exactly the same as they did before I sealed them. It’s only been a month, so I don’t know how well it will last, but so far it works great. Here in Florida we get a good amount of summer rain, and the water isn’t absorbing into the pavers at all. If it lasts 5-7 years I’ll be back for more and let you know. I did A LOT of research on “sealers” before I purchased this, and believe it’s the “right” product for this application

Great product. Easy to apply. Easy clean up (soap & water). I applied it to a 1,350 square foot section of concrete that was installed in September 2024. I had the concrete pressure washed (I hired that out - he did a good job) 1 day before product application - which I did myself. I'm 76 years old and it was an easy job. I used a garden sprayer set with the spray pattern as wide as possible...at 80 degrees and 55% humidity...on a sunny (but overcast) day...in 8' square sections. It was drying by the time I got to the end of my run so I had to get it recoated pretty fast. I bought 3 five gallon pails and ended up using 9 gallons in total...so I got pretty good coverage in my opinion. It's too early to tell how well it will work - I'll update this review later when I know for sure. This stuff is EXPENSIVE - but all of the good concrete sealers are - so this brand is fairly priced. All things considered, I can HIGHLY RECOMMEND this product.

Excellent product! Goes on very nicely. A bit expensive (as they all are) but worth the protection with ease in application and cleanup I don't think there will be any issue with the protection of the pavers and polymeric fill.

I haven’t ever done anything like this before, I applied it on to my concrete driveway that had rock aggregate in it. Water now just runs right across. For easy to apply with a weed sprayer. No issues at all!
