Interlocking driveway sealant - NOT GLOSS enough?
Every year I seal my Interlock driveway with Home Depot sealant (highly
gloss), I did clean it with pressure washer beforehand. But the result wasn't very satisfying - it's not gloss enough compared to my neighbor's driveway. I guess they hired some professional guys to do that. Wondering if it's because of Home depot's sealant (I think the brand name is Bear? or sth like that) problem or there is something wrong with my preparation procedure? Also, how do I get rid of tire mark and rust? Can I use CLR (Calcium Lime Rust)? is it dangerous to discolor the interlocking bricks? Thanks for help. |

Interlocking driveway sealant - NOT GLOSS enough?
What type of sealant is it? Water based? Solvent based? The solvent
based ones tend to look better and last longer. However due to environmental regulations, you can't buy the solvent based ones in some states, NJ being one of them. The contractor that did my patio in stamped concrete used a solvent based one and it looked better than my results with water based. "n0sPaM" wrote in message ble.rogers.com...

I used the Beah solvent based, it is better than water based (I tried water based the year before). But compared to neighbor's driveway, it is still dull. "Chet Hayes" wrote in message om...
