- Broader substrate list: approved for natural stones (granite, marble/travertine, limestone) and wetcast in addition to concrete pavers
- Highest sheen and color depth in the SRW catalog — the wet-look favorite for showcase installs
- Professional formulation: the choice of contractors for restorations and high-end commercial work

- 5 Gallons (covers 1,250 sq ft) — full driveways, large patios, multi-room paver installs, commercial walkways
Application
- Wait 28 days after installing polymeric sand before sealing.
- Clean and prep the surface with an SRW General Purpose Cleaner; spot-treat stains with the appropriate Specialty Clean product.
- Wait 24 hours after cleaning so the surface and joints are completely dry.
- Stir thoroughly. Apply with an SRW slit foam roller and sprayer — spray, then back-roll. Two-person application is recommended.
- Start at the highest elevation and work downhill. Do not allow sealer to pool on the surface or in joints.
- Cure for 24 hours; protect from rain. Vehicle traffic after 72 hours.
- 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.
