SuperSeal30 Paver and Concrete Sealer Scores (1-10)

Wet Look: 10

SuperSeal30 contains 30% solid acrylic. It darkened our 4-year-old paver patio as if wet and stayed that way after drying. It enhanced the natural red and brown tones in our paver bricks.

Gloss Level: 8

The high solid content of the SuperSeal gave our paver patio a high-gloss shine. The overall appearance on our test patio was quite rich-looking but not so shiny that it looked “fake.” The sealer was slightly slippery for the first couple of weeks when it rained, but after complete curing, that was not an issue.

Masonry Saver Paver Sealer Review

As of 2025, Masonry Saver Paver Sealer continues to exceed expectations by providing a beautiful finish for brick pavers. If you have used Masonry Saver Paver Sealer, I want your input! Feel free to leave me a comment with the pictures below. I am here to help!

MasonrySaver (Defy) Epoxy-Fortified Paver Sealer is a durable, water-based, clear, wet-look concrete sealant designed to protect and beautify clay brick and cement patio-type paver stones. It gives them a rich satin finish as a paver sand sealer.

Paver Sealer protects from water and the sun’s ultraviolet light. It can be used on most horizontal, above-grade concrete applications, including clay brick, clay paver, and natural stone.

They are applied to a brick paver patio surrounding a pool.

My Masonry Saver Paver Sealer Scores (1-10)

Wet Look: 7.5

The MasonrySaver Paver Sealer darkened the surface but not nearly as much as a solvent-based sealer. It looked richer but lacked that deep, rich look.

Gloss Level: 6.5

It took two coats of the sealer to see some gloss. The gloss level was more of a matte shine, not a semi-gloss. Being that this install was around a pool, that could be a benefit for potential slipping.

SuperSeal Matte Pro Review

For 2025, Superseal Matte continues to exceed expectations by providing a beautiful matte/satin finish for brick pavers. If you have used SuperSeal Matte, I want to hear your input! Feel free to leave me a comment with any pictures below.

The SuperSeal Paver and Concrete Sealers line by Clemons Concrete Coatings is popular among professionals and homeowners alike. The SuperSeal Matte review is similar to their higher-content sealers but with an additive that reduces the shine. SuperSeal Matte will darken the appearance and add a wet look without the high gloss finish. The SuperSeal Matte is a wet-look solvent-based sealer best used on decorative and stamped concrete, exposed aggregate, and brick pavers. It can be applied to paver sand joints and will help harden and solidify the sand to reduce unwanted weed growth and erosion.

Brick Paver Patios and landscaping blocks have become increasingly popular in the last 10-20 years. They offer an alternative to regular plain white concrete by adding old world charm, which resembles walkways and streets of the 19th century. Brick Paver patios can be customized to be designed for any area. They are very popular for driveways, walkways, around pools, etc. Of course, with any exterior horizontal surface, there is a need for general maintenance with brick pavers by cleaning and sealing on a regular basis.

Brick paver sealers are water repellents and coatings that are specifically designed to be used on paver stones and blocks.

See below for all kinds of reviews, tips, and articles on brick paver sealers.
