What Sealer is Best for Stamped Concrete Patios
Stamped concrete is a decorative surface that has become popular in the last 10-20 years. These surfaces utilize patterns and different colors to create a dramatic look for your landscaping. Stamped concrete is patterned to resemble brick, slate, flagstone, stone, tile, wood, and other patterns. It is commonly used for patios, sidewalks, driveways, and pool decks.
As with any exterior concrete surface, stamped concrete surfaces must be maintained consistently. Sealing will help keep your Stamped Concrete looking new and protected for many years.
To determine what Stamped Concrete Sealer is best, you must first understand the differences between the different types of stamped concrete sealers and what you would like to achieve when it comes to appearance and protection when done.
Stamped Concrete Sealers have four primary functions
- Enhance the Stamped Concrete by adding a wet look, shine, or both.
- Protects the Stamped Concrete from pitting and cracking.
- Protect the Stamped Concrete from color loss and fading
- Seals from water damage and staining.
Wet Look Stamped Concrete Sealer?
“Wet look” sometimes gets confused with “gloss.” Using a sealer that leaves a “wet look” means darkening the surface as if wet with water. These sealers may or may not contain a shine level of some sort. Wet-look sealers will also protect from UV fading and color loss.
Gloss Stamped Concrete Sealers?
Gloss sealers, ranging from matte to high gloss, will shine to the surface. In most scenarios, you will also darken the concrete with a wet look. These sealers may be prone to being slippery when wet if over-applied.
Preventing Pitting/Cracking Stamped Concrete?
One reason to seal Stamped Concrete is to protect it from pitting and cracking. This is especially important for cold-weather areas where deicing salts are used, which can result in erosion of the surface by pitting, or the freeze/thaw cycle can create permanent cracks if the stamped concrete is not sealed.

🛒 Buyer’s Guide – Choosing the Best Stamped Concrete Sealer
Stamped concrete is both decorative and functional, but it needs protection to maintain its beauty and durability. Choosing the right sealer depends on your finish preference, exposure conditions, and local VOC regulations.
✅ 1. Gloss Level – Wet Look or Matte?
| Finish Type | Appearance | Recommended For | Examples |
|---|---|---|---|
| High Gloss | Rich color enhancement & shine | Patios, pool decks, decorative areas | SuperSeal 30 |
| Semi-Gloss | Slight shine, moderate enhancement | Entryways, driveways | SuperSeal 25 |
| Wet Look / No Gloss | Darkens surface with no film gloss | Natural aesthetic, less slipperiness | Supreme Shield SB-600 |
| Satin/Low Gloss | Subtle enhancement | Residential areas with foot traffic | Super Seal-Matte |
💡 Glossy finishes are more eye-catching but can become slippery when wet. For safety, consider non-slip additives.
✅ 2. Solvent-Based vs. Water-Based Sealers
| Feature | Solvent-Based Acrylics | Water-Based Acrylics |
|---|---|---|
| Color Enhancement | Strong | Mild to moderate |
| Gloss | High | Matte to low gloss |
| Recoat Compatibility | Easier | May require stripping |
| VOC Compliance | Limited in some states | Typically compliant |
| Durability | Very good | Moderate |
⚠️ Always check local VOC regulations before selecting a solvent-based product.
✅ 3. Expected Longevity and Resealing Frequency
-
Acrylic Sealers (Solvent or Water-Based): Reseal every 2–3 years
-
Penetrating Sealers: May last up to 5+ years depending on exposure
-
UV & Moisture Exposure: Accelerates wear; reseal more frequently for full sun areas
✅ 4. Ease of Application
Stamped concrete sealers are generally DIY-friendly:
-
Use a pump sprayer or 1/2″ nap roller
-
Apply 2 thin coats for best results
-
Ensure the surface is clean, dry, and fully cured
🧼 Remove any previous failed coatings or trapped moisture to avoid peeling.
✅ 5. VOC Compliance by State
States with low-VOC laws (e.g., CA, NY, NJ, IL) may restrict certain high-solvent sealers like SuperSeal 30. Use low-VOC water-based or penetrating alternatives like:
-
MasonrySaver Stamped Concrete Sealer
-
Supreme Shield SB-600 (VOC-compliant in most regions)

❓ Frequently Asked Questions – Stamped Concrete Sealers
What is the best sealer for stamped concrete?
The best sealer for stamped concrete is typically a solvent-based acrylic that provides a wet look while offering UV, stain, and abrasion resistance. SuperSeal 30, Foundation Armor AR350, and Supreme Shield SB-600 are top-rated choices depending on your desired finish (gloss vs. satin) and location (VOC restrictions).
What’s the difference between a wet look and natural finish sealer?
-
Wet look sealers enhance the color of stamped concrete and leave a glossy or semi-gloss film.
-
Natural finish sealers provide protection without significantly changing the appearance, resulting in a more matte or invisible finish.
💡 Wet look sealers are more popular for decorative patios and pool decks, while natural finishes are often chosen for subtle enhancement.
How often should you reseal stamped concrete?
Stamped concrete should be resealed every 2 to 3 years depending on foot traffic, UV exposure, and weather conditions. High-gloss finishes may dull faster in direct sunlight and require more frequent reapplication.
Can stamped concrete sealer make the surface slippery?
Yes, film-forming sealers—especially high-gloss ones—can become slippery when wet. To reduce slip hazards, use a non-slip additive or opt for a lower-gloss or penetrating sealer.
Can I apply stamped concrete sealer myself?
Yes. Most stamped concrete sealers can be applied with a sprayer or 1/2” nap roller. Surface prep is crucial—make sure the concrete is clean, dry, and free of previous failed coatings. Apply 2 thin coats for best results.
Questions on The Best Stamped Concrete Sealer?
Ask below, and I will be glad to help!
We want to reseal our stamped concrete walkway and patio. Do we have to use the same product that was initially used on our concrete? I believe I was told it was Crystal Clear. It’s been about two years since it was done.
Post a picture please.
Hi, we are building a house and the flooring will be concrete. What is the best sealer for the floor? I am looking at Super Seal 30. Will I need to add a grip product to keep it from being too slick?
What type of concrete surface will this be? Wet look and gloss sealers will not work well for plain poured concrete. Dries blotchy. Also, these are exterior sealers. Interior might be better off with clear coat epoxies.
We just poured concrete for our patio/pool area. We added a darker gray to the mix and a light powder was added to the concrete when poured then stamped. The concrete is less then a week old and it looks white (from the power). The powder does still come up when watered down and brushed. What can we seal the concrete with that will make it look darker (like when wet) and not be slippery around the pool? Will it darken as it cures and the powder rinses away? How long do we wait to seal?
Thanks
Try the Super Seal Matte for this. You can seal now.
I’m in California and it won’t be shipped here. What would you recommend that compares to the super seal matte?
Masonry Saver Decorative Concrete Sealer.
I have a in-ground salt pool and a stamped concreted patio surrounding it. There is no trees for shade either. Perfect storm! I’m looking for a non-slip, salt resistant and high UV protection sealer. What’s your best recommendation?
Supreme Shield SB-600.
Have a stamped concrete pool surround of about 700sf that was sealed when installed 4 years ago wth something that made it very slippery. We’re in Minnesota and are going to seal it and add an nonslip additive. If we use SS30 would we have to do one coat first then add the additive to the second coat? Is there an alternative to doing 2 coats but with as good a sealer? Patio looks great but need to make it not slippery. Thanks!
Yes, one light coat first and then add the anti-slip into your second coat. You need the base coat for the grip to suspend correctly in the second coat.
Thank you! We will be sealing driveway and north-facing patio pavers that have never been sealed, also. Is there any reason we shouldn’t use SB-600 for the pavers and the pool stamped concrete surround? If we don’t care about having a gloss finish on the pool surround, is the SS30 or the SB-600 better for there? Can the anti-slip be added to the 600? Thanks so much for all your help!
You cannot add the grip into the SB-600. It is too thin. You do not need it though either as it will not be slippery since it has no shine.
I have a four year old stamped concrete sidewalk. Last spring it looked “cloudy”. I used Xylene and it looked pretty good this year it looks terrible.
Do you have an email I can send a couple of pictures to.
You can upload pictures directly to this site.
Here are some of my pics
Try the Xylene again first and then apply a light coat of the same sealer used previously.
I have the white haze you talk about on my patio. Is there a way to get rid of it? What products do we need to prevent this from happening again?
Depends on what is causing the haze issue. What sealers where used before. Please post a picture.
We have a saltwater pool stamped concrete deck with integral color installed 3 years ago.
1) What is the best sealer with anti slip grip?
2) We just pressure washed it and white spots are coming up. Do we need to treat the white spots before resealing? If we need to treat white spots how?
Do the white spots show when wet with water?
Yes they still show when wet, here is a dry and then wet picture.
Can we seal or do we need to treat/remove white spots first?
Also what sealer is recommended with anti slip grip?
You will need to chemically strip this off to fix. Not easy to do by can be done. Use the Concrete Sealer Stripper by Clemons Concrete Coatings. Once removed, use the Super Seal 30 for the new coating. You can add a grip into the sealer. Shark Grip or Super Grip.
where can I buy this concrete sealer?
Online or check with the manufacturers.
Hi. This website is sooo helpful! I’m not sure if our concrete has ever been sealed. The home is 10 years old and we are recent owners. What product do you recommend to restore the colore and shine? Also anything you recommend for the crack repair? Note two picture were taken in the sun and the one with the crack is in the shade. Thank you!
Cracks are normal in concrete and nothing you can do to stop or repair this. Just leave as is. Seal with a product like the Super Seal 25.
Our home is being built right now and our floors inside are concrete which have two color hardners and a third color in a release agent and then stamped
what type of sealer is best to use for this
Use the Super Seal 30.
I have two colored stamped patios that were done in 2015 and sealer is wearing off. What should I use to get glossy shine again? Do I need to strip first? Also, I have a large garage that was poured in 2013 that I would like to freshen up. What would be the best product for it also. Thanks
Post a picture to see if needs to be stripper or not.
Use the Super Seal 30 for the stamped after the needed prep and SuperSeal-M of the garage.

It looks like the old sealer has turned white and is creating a haze. This means you have to strip it off to fix. We use the stripper made by Clemons Concrete Coatings.
I have 3 year old colored and stamped concrete around our saltwater pool. The stamping was not done well at all, ie there are indentions from knee pads etc. but it is what I am stuck with. It always looks like there are “dry” spots on it as if the sealer was not applied in the low areas…especially after it dries a bit after it rains. After 3 years, I was told we should reapply sealer so here we are. Questions: 1- whats the absolute best sealer to use around saltwater pool. Assuming Super Sealer 30. 2- it is important… Read more »
1. SS30 or Masonry Saver Decorative Concrete Sealer
2. Use a grip like Shark Grip or Super Gripp. Not sand. Their directions will say how much to use.
3. No idea without seeing pictures.
4. As long as it has not discolored or turned white.
Greetings! I am SO impressed with your website and responsive comments section! I have a ten year old stamped concrete patio in the Seattle area which was poured in two contrasting red colors and textures. In addition to the original seal coat done by the contractor, I have twice sealed with W.R.Mead CD-309-.30 30% solid Acrylic with great results both times. However, it has been over five years since the last seal coat (tsk. tsk!), and the patio looks as in the pictures. I desire to restore the rich original look with what I hope are improved longer lasting products… Read more »
1. Do not think so. Does it look all even when wet with water? If so, no reason to strip.
2. No those will not work on this surface type and having been previously sealed. Plus they are not wet look or gloss sealers.
3. Super Seal 25 or Masonry Saver Decorative Concrete Sealer.
4. Use above brands
5. No that will not work.
Thanks
You helped me with my pavers now I need your help with my covered porch that has stamped concrete. This concrete has been in place for about 10 years. The last coat of sealant was last year and was Super Diamond Clear 8826, a solvent based sealer. I applied a coat the previous year but it did not last long as the continuous exposure to rain blowing in on it made it appear as you can see below. The portion that stays dry is what I am looking for but don’t want to have to reseal the portion exposed to… Read more »
Try some Xylene. Apply with a pump sprayer to all of the porch. It should restore the shine and remove the white haze. It may come back in a year but you can repeat the process 1-2 times a year, extending the life of the sealer. Reseal in a couple of years with Super Seal 30 or 25.
Thank you
What is the best sealer for 30 year old stamped concrete in zone 5 to 6.
Try Super Seal 25 or the Masonry Saver Decoartive Concrete Sealer.
Where can I buy super seal 25 in Canada
I do not think you can buy it in Canada.
I have a large pattern concrete patio. I will order Clemons Concrete Stripper. But with product is better for resealing Super Seal 30 or 25? Which would you use?I live in Denver, Colorado.
Either is fine. The SS30 is lightly shinier than the SS25.
Thank you for having a post. I have a very large pattern concrete pattern patio. I will order Clemons concrete sealer to strip it. Which product is better for redoing the patio: Super Seal 30 or 25?
Hi. My stamp concrete was sealed about 5 years ago and I don’t know what tipe of sealer they use it. How can I found out. Thank you.
Sorry, no way to tell just by looking at it.
I am not sure what type of sealer was used on my concrete originally. I have some hairline cracks to fill and reseal the area. Do I need to strip off the old sealer or can I go over what I currently have?
Bill
Please post a picture to help determine the best course of action.
I live in a Chicago suburb and have been going for the wet look in my 4 year old stamp concrete problem is that when it rains or when it’s wet it’s extra slippery. My daughter is now 5 and so is 1 so having the concrete slipper is out of the question so no one gets injured. Is there a wet look sealer that is not slippery after it gets wet???
Add a grip to the sealer like Sharp Grip or Super Grip. That should help with the issue.
Hi! Just tell me exactly what to buy lol I live in Michigan and have a stamped concrete patio.. would like wet look.. it’s in great shape but does not have the look…I will be doing it myself!
Depends on the brand? Best to do a Goolge search and see if a local dealer in your area or buy online.
Understand! What would I google? Wet look concrete sealer?
Google the brand name not the type for locating a product. Like “Super Seal 25”,
We had a decorative concrete patio put in 10 years ago and never could get it to look new after the first couple of years. I sealed it myself in the beginning and recently had the contractor seal it but not happy. The patio looks faded and you can see where furniture protects it from the sun that the color is ok. Heavy direct sun during the summer months. The contractor wants to strip the old sealer and seal with a different type of sealer. I am guessing he is going to go with a solvent based instead of water… Read more »
It definitely needs to be stripped. Stripping is not easy and honestly, the contractors pricing is inline with the difficulty of doing the project. If you decide to continue yourself you will need a heavy duty concrete sealer stripper and a 3000 psi pressure washer. Apply stripper in sections of 100 sq. feet at a time and pressure wash off. Repeat and repeat until all gone. You may need to strip all a few times to remove it. Be careful you do not cause damage to the surrounding plants and house. Once done, use a quality solvent based sealer like… Read more »
Thanks for your quick response ! I guess I am having a hard time getting in my head the effort getting the old sealer off. I don’t believe there is much sealer left on the patio but I am far from an expert ! The patio is lined with shrubs and a small pond so there is concern about plant damage.
We live in Mesa Arizona and have a patio with stamped concrete pavers with polymeric sand between the mating pavers and grooves stamped into the tops of said pavers.
The question is; will the sealer work over the polymeric sand, and if so which sealer would you suggest for a matte finish? Thank you.
Please post a picture of the patio and sand.
Is there a stamped concrete sealer that already has an additive for friction? I have a stamped concrete pool deck. In past, I had to add a product called Shark Bite to the sealer to keep it from being too slick. What do you recommend? Also, is in the Texas sun so need something that will hold up. Thanks.
No. Sealers do not already come with additives for traction. You would have to add that to it. Try the Super Seal 30 Sealer with their Super Grip additive.
We bought a house with stamped cement sidewalk front and back and a large screened in patio. The sidewalk was put in about 9 yrs ago and I don't think it was ever resealed. It is a reddish color, looks faded and a whitish haze in places. I was wondering if it needs stripped before I reseal it. Also what would be the best sealant as I have no knowledge of what was used previously. I have pictures, but can't post them in this section.
Rae, if the old sealer has turned white then yes, it is best to strip first. Once removed, try the Super Seal 30 concrete sealer if looking for a gloss and a wet look.
Many thanks!! My first home! Learning as we go!!!
how can I remove the sealer from a new stamped concrete driveway? this sealer that was used left white deposits on practically 1000 sq ft of driveway. what will be the best solution to this problem? thanks
You will need to chemically strip with a concrete sealer stripper. Apply and pressure wash off. Repeat if need until all is removed. Not an easy process but can be done. We use a stripper made by Clemons Concrete Coatings.
Did your project get wet 1/2 days after the Sealer was applied? Solvent based sealers can't have any moisture applied within the first day or so. White spots will appear , especially around or near control joints.
where can I purchase solvent based acrylic styrene sealer for a stamped patio?
Check with Clemons Concrete Coatings.

Hi….we just had a beautiful new stamped concrete patio put in off of our screened porch and our dog's claws are scratching through the sealer so we now have scratch marks. The sweeper at the bottom of our storm door has dulled that section of the patio too. The company we went through said they've never seen that before and pretty much threw their hands up. The sealant that used is Super Luster Shield. What can we do at this point?
I would call the manufacturer of this sealer and see what they suggest. It is not normal to have this happen.
Hi could you recommend a solvent based acrylic (styrene) sealer for me to buy please? It's for my stamped concrete driveway that is due for a reseal.

Strip and start over by removing the sealer that is discoloring.

Hi Sherry, use the Concrete Sealer Stripper by Clemons and pressure washing. After full removal, do a final prep with the Clemons Concrete Cleaner Degreaser.
Just had a new driveway poured…exposed aggregate with fiberglass reinforcing pellets….
Super Diamond Clear and Diamond Clear and Luster Seal were all suggested, but reviews so far here on the first two arent that good and I cant find the last one anyways.
I really dont WANT a super shiny appearance, and I don't want it to be slippery!
So, what sealer can I use that will seal, stay looking good and stand up to driveway use and abuse like fluids , tires etc ?
Do you want no shine or some shine? Supreme Shield SB-600 has a wet look but without the shine. Super Seal Matte has the wet look and a Matte shine.
I have a stamped concrete patio. Last year we hired someone to put a sealer on it to brighten it up. It bubbled all over
Mary, you may need to strip it off and start over: https://www.concretesealerreview.com/how-to-fix-c…

Strip it with a concrete sealer stripper and pressure washing. Use the Stripper by Clemons Concrete.
I have a old stamped concrete patio that I reseal every 2-3 years. Previously used Crystal Clear. This year they suggested Diamond Clear. Is one better than the other?
Never used or heard of crystal clear. Sorry.
I have colored stamped concrete around the pool and on sidewalk. I need to reseal this spring, what do you recommend that I can add shark grip to. Surface has been extremely slick in the past with sealing from professionals (even with shark grip). Most sealer is now gone, should shark grip be added to each coat of sealer? thanks Beth
Hi Beth, you just need one coat. Look at Masonry Saver Decorative Concrete Sealer or Supre Seal 25. You should be able to add the grip into ot.
