Foundation Armor 5 GAL AR350 Solvent Based Acrylic Wet Look Concrete Sealer and Paver Sealer

My driveway, sides and backyard every thing looks amazing after using armor ar350 solvent based acrylic low gloss wet look sealer

Shipped fast and was really well packaged for shippment! Application was super simple and easy with standard roller and a broom handle attached. Followed the directions exactly and had zero issues on colored concrete pavers. Previous owner had slacked on sealing before us so the first coat that I liberally rolled on got soaked in quickly. Pic attached is that 1st coat after 24hrs. Due to the overly dried out pavers, coverage was lower than described. I got about 1300sqft single coat which is inline of their estimates. The second coat does cover better so staying on top of reapplications every 2-4 years should be easier and more cost effective. It really does improve the look of the pavers although you will see alot more white stone spots after due to where the paver color has worn off over the years. But still better looking by far! I did test a secind coat in spots which was also zero issues but not as transforming. But when it rained a few days later it was noticeable how the water beaded better. I experiance none of the cloudy, white, or yellow issues that any of the neg reviews list. And this was done in South West Florida with a SW facing driveway! I did reapply polymetric sand to all the paver joints prior with some joints at the street and side walk being 1". The polymetric sand was preset with water mist 2 days prior and with sealer it became very hard which is perfect! I have already ordered a second 5 gallons to complete a second coat without any hesitation and would highly recomend!

So we ran out off cash building our house and researched available options to keep the concrete looking pretty until we can afford professional finishing. This product was recommended by a trusted source and we went for it. TLDR: We have absolutely no regrets.We mopped, scrubbed, and rinsed as much as we could without worrying too much about stains, and applied a first coat 24 hours later. Application was a breeze with a nap roller on a long handle. It was mostly self-leveling, but we do have a few minor puddles. For the love of God, open allllllll your windows and get the fans blowing. I would highly recommend using the buddy system for application to limit exposure and speed things up. With the windows left partially open, the smell was 85% gone by the next morning with no smell after a few days.I can't remember what the listed coverage is, but 5 gallons easily did two coats on the entire floor of our 1500 Sq ft house.It does not stay this pretty. It scuffs up just like any finish, but it's still a good, solid protective coating that mops up well and is definitely worth the money.

Excellent product. The product went on very easily with a roller. I added the no slip grit as this was to seal some pavers near my pool. I had about 700sq. ft. and 5 gallons was just enough. The first coat went on in about 2 hours with a large roller. The second coat I used a sprayer so that I could get into the crevices between the pavers. It looks stunning! I started the project 2 weeks earlier by removing the effloresence on the pavers and cleaning them with a pressure washer. The first day of a 4 day good weather pattern I started by using my leaf blower to blow off the pine needles and dust, then, after mixing the grit, I started laying it on with the roller. The first few strokes of the roller I had too much product on the roller. After an adjustment I rolled small areas about 4ft. square and overlapped all sides. In two hours I completed the full coat but noticed that some of the seams between the pavers had not been covered. The second coat I used a sprayer without the grit. I hit the seams and lightly coated the surface. The final look is great and the product directions really helped with cleanup. I would recommend this product but it took more than I expected to finish the job. I ordered more as I have two more areas of pavers to seal and may decide to lay a thin final coat on the big pavers. All in all I expect that I will use 10 gallons for about 1300 sq. ft. of pavers.

I had a new exposed aggregate patio poured this summer, and knew I wanted to seal it both for protection and the color that it brings out in the material. When dry, my patio appears grey with brown exposed pebbles...but when wet appears brown which is what I wanted. After days of research, I settled on this product. To make application easier, I bought a roller frame, 4 foot extension handle, a paint tray plus 2 disposable inserts, a couple of 3 inch paint brushes, and a 6 pack of 3/8 inch roller covers. After completing the project, the only thing I would change is to say that you will only need one roller cover for each application.I prepped the patio by sweeping it several times before the first application to remove dust and debris (new patio, so I did not see the need to power wash). My space is bounded on 3 sides by either house or iron fence, and I planned to work towards the open edge as I went. I found it easiest to cut in 3 of the bounded sides of the patio by hand with a paint brush. I then poured some of the 5 gallon can into the paint tray and went to work methodically working in from all the edges while making sure I did not apply any behind me. It went on quickly and easily, and I got any excess of the roller in the tray before applying so there would not be any pooling on the concrete. I worked my way to the open edge to finish things off. The takeaway from the first application was that sweeping the patio was not enough to clear all of the small debris. I ended up with a fair amount on the roller, and had to pick pieces of grass out of the sealer as I went. The whole first application took me less than an hour start to finish on a 225 square foot surface.I waited the required 24 hours for the second application. I knew I needed to get the invisible debris off the patio better this time, so I decided to use a leaf blower to work out towards all the edges. I repeated the application just as I had the prior day, starting with cutting in all the edges with the paint brush. I finished the second application in about 40 minutes, and found hardly any issues with debris on the roller or surface. The leaf blower was a success, and I recommend it wholeheartedly.The surface sheen looked uneven after the first application, but looked great after the second. I am extremely pleased with the result...a matte finish wet look. Water now beads on the surface when it rains, and the patio looks amazing. I will definitely be using this product in the future, but probably in smaller quantity. I used maybe half of a 5 gallon for the entire project.
