Which Sealer?

I need to seal a flagstone patio; What's a good sealer to use on it?

Thanks

Re: Which Sealer?

i have found that the wal mart brand works just as good as thompsons or any of the other high dollar sealers.

Re: Which Sealer?

Thompsons contains parafin wax.Makes the water bubble up just like the commercials.Unfortunatly it doesn't last.Home Depot or Lowes should carry a sealer specifically for stone.They also sell a wet look sealer that'll bring of the color out in the stone.
