I have a mud brick floor. Previously, I have used a product called Solpar Oil, made by Taublmans, applied over a few coatings of Linseed Oil (which reduced the amt of Solpah). The Solpah was excellent as it was 1.hardwearing , 2. waterproof and 3. transparent. Unfortunately , Tubman's no longer produce Solpar oil. Can you suggest a product which may be appropriate ? Thanks

In most cases a top up coat after 3-5 years is recommended. This would vary due to the amount of use, weather conditions and condition of the concrete slabs the coloured sealer is being applied to. Hope that helps. George@Smartseal

Hi, thanks for your question. The product will seal and protect the mortar as well. 70% of damage to external surfaces is caused by moisture ingress. This sealer will prevent this and strengthen the mortar as well. Hope that helps. Nigel@Smartseal

Hello Rachel, Yes, you can, but a broom is better. It enables you to remove the excess sealer that settles in the joints more effectively. Also if you are combining the sealer with a anti slip additive or colour tint, consistent mixing with the broom in the drum, keeps these additives suspended in the sealer. Hope that helps.

Hi, when do you re sand the driveway? Do you clean, apply, the block magic, sand then seal?
@SmartsealUk
@SmartsealUk Ай бұрын
Hi Dave, thanks for your question. if you wanted to define the sand in the joints, you would apply the Block Magic then sand and then apply a coat of clear sealer. If you wanted the sand to be the same colour as the block paving, you would apply the block magic only with no clear sealer, just 2 coats of Block Magic after sanding. Hope that helps. Josh@Smartseal

Hello, Thanks for your comment. Please be aware, this is a coloured sealer, not a paint. It is formulated to give a new lease of life to old block paving that has been down 20-30 yrs+ and has lost all its colour. For some people it provides a cost effective alternative to replacing the entire drive or patio. Hope that helps. Josh@Smartseal

If you are referring to block paving, the blocks themselves and the bed of sand underneath the blocks needs to be totally dry before sealing. This would generally even in the best weather take at least 3 days at least. Hope that helps Joshua@Smartseal
