SRW Products DG Dual Guard Paver Sealer

Get film-forming gloss and penetrating water repellency in a single coat with the SRW Products DG Dual Guard Paver Sealer. The 2-in-1 acrylic/siloxane formula gives concrete pavers, stamped concrete, and natural stone a high-gloss, wet-look finish on the surface while siloxane drives into capillaries below to block water, deicing salts, and freeze/thaw damage from underneath. Commercial/industrial strength — ideal for high-traffic driveways and commercial walkways — and approved for vertical applications.

Why Dual Guard?

• Two protections in one coat: the acrylic forms a high-gloss surface film while the siloxane penetrates into the substrate to repel water from below
• Wet-look gloss: deepest paver-color depth in the SRW catalog
• Commercial strength: high-traffic driveways, commercial walkways, restoration jobs
• Vertical applications: the only SRW sealer rated for vertical surfaces (column wraps, retaining-wall faces, walls)
• Resists efflorescence, freeze/thaw, deicing salts, and chemical erosion
• Re-coatable — revitalizes surfaces previously sealed with DG

Application

1. Wait 28 days after installing polymeric sand before sealing.
2. Clean and prep the surface with an SRW General Purpose Cleaner; spot-treat stains with the appropriate Specialty Clean product.
3. Wait 24 hours after cleaning so the surface and joints are completely dry.
4. Stir thoroughly. Apply with an SRW slit foam roller and sprayer — spray, then back-roll. Two-person application is recommended.
5. Start at the highest elevation and work downhill. Do not allow sealer to pool on the surface or in joints.
6. For vertical applications: watch for dripping/pooling and wipe with a brush as needed.
7. Cure for 24 hours; protect from rain. Vehicle traffic after 72 hours.
8. Cleanup: rinse spray equipment with SRW XY Xylene Solvent (soap and water will not work).

Tip: For added slip resistance on pool decks and stair treads, top with SRW SR Slip-Resist. Reapply DG every 3–5 years to maintain the protective film.
