Solvent based sealers are typically a acrylic polymer blend with a varying amount of solids in them that determine the thickness or coating level you will get after applying. Solvent based paver and concrete sealers perform very similar in performance as the water based sealers but tend to give a thicker, higher gloss appearance. Solvent based sealers are also associated with more challenges and difficulty during application. Below are some important characteristics of solvent based sealers.
Here are a few samples of sealing with solvent based sealers. They are usually rolled on and create a thick film over the pavers. Often if it is rolled on too thick it will trap moisture and cause them to turn white. They will also begin to chip or flake away over time causing them to look terrible. Often times we find ourselves having to completely strip away all the sealer before cleaning and resealing.
Water based sealers are also acrylic polymers, like the solvent based, but with the polymers dispersed within the water molecules. This thinner blend allows for the sealer to be sprayed on the surface which often gives a more uniform and consistent coverage. Once the sealer is sprayed on the water begins to evaporate bonding the acrylic polymers together to create the sealed surface.
In here you will find examples of pavers being sealed with the more popular water based sealers. Today's technology has created some excellent choices in water based paver sealers that will not trap moisture and turn the pavers white. Water based sealers go on white and dry clear, while deeply penetrating the surface to seal out stains and oils.
