Looking for a good sealer for new brick pavers around a swimming pool.
Want a nice wet look but not glossy.

Re: Help Please On Sealing New Pavers


Contact a good paver supplier (not a big box, etc.). The will have sealers.

Usually they have several diffferent finishes or glosses. They are made to be applied to pavers. The chlorine from the pool may shorten th coating life somewhat.

Brick pavers should not require a sealer anyway, if they are actual brick pavers and not face/common/used brick or concrete pavers.
