In a hurry? Here are the best products at a glance.
If you want to make sure your concrete driveway or marble countertops are as protected against the elements as possible, you should consider applying a paver sealer. Believe it or not, there are a lot of different options out there. We researched the best-selling items and top rated brands to bring you this paver sealer buying guide. Before we get started, let’s look at some of the features you know about before you shop.
Finish: You can choose from a few different finishes: matte, low gloss, high gloss, and wet look. Matte tends to be the most natural looking. Be careful with high glass and wet look finishes around pools and such, they might just be deaf.
Non-toxic: There’s actually no characteristics that a substance like this has to meet to be considered “non-toxic.” Most water-based options are just fine when it comes to toxicity. You should also make sure to keep strong smelling products out of your home.
Application: A lot of these sealers can be applied either indoors or outdoors. Those that are meant for outdoor use are usually a little safer. There are a lot of different ways to apply them, too. You can use a brush, roller, or even a rollercoaster.
Made in USA: There are a few of these sealers that are proudly made in the USA. That said, a lot of the other sealers don’t disclose where they’re made. If you’re worried about toxins, etc, go for an American Made option to put yourself at ease.
Package Size: Package sizes vary quite a bit but here’s something to keep in mind. How long a gallon or quart of sealer lasts depends on a lot of things: the temperature, how porous the surface is, and the method of application.
Water Based: Water based formulas tend to smell a little less harsh and are usually non-toxic. Most formulas that can be used indoors are water based. We included a few different water based options for you to think about.
