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.

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.

H&C Concrete Sealer Wet Look Scores (1-10)

Wet Look: 5

I expected a much richer look because this sealer is H&C’s designated “wet look” sealer. The sealer did darken the surface, but only slightly. It is not on par with other water-based sealers and is not even close to a good solvent-based sealer.

Gloss Level: 4

H&C Wet Look Sealer had little to no gloss for the first coat and a matte sheen after the second coat.
