Supreme Shield SB-600 Wet Look Sealer
As of 2021, we have found that the Supreme Shield SB-600 and SB-350 (low VOC States) are the most popular sealers when looking for a wet look without the gloss or shine. This can be used for Stamped Concrete, Brick Pavers, and other Decorative Concrete Surfaces. If you have any questions about this product, please ask below in our Q&A area. We are here to help!
SUPREME SHIELD SB is a solvent-based penetrating sealer designed for stamped concrete, concrete pavers, and other porous concrete surfaces. Application of SUPREME SHIELD SB will enhance the color and give the wet look without adding the gloss and plastic look associated with other traditional film-forming sealers. Once treated, the surface repels water and oil to prevent staining.

It’s going to be between 30 & 40 this week and then colder. I messed up and didn’t get it done this summer. Shouldn’t try it huh?
No, too cold.
What does the air temperature have to be to apply?
50-90.
Is SB-600 OK in NV?
No idea, as we do not live there. Check online.
What is the percentage of solids in the Supreme Shield SB-600 Concrete Sealer?
I believe around 20-25%.
We live in Northern California (The SF Bayarea). Want to apply sealant on three types of surfaces – concrete, aggregate concrete and brick. I have attached photos of all three. All these surfaces are horizontal, includes the driveway and walkways around the house. We want to get a wet but not glossy look. Some gloss is ok. We are thinking about Supreme Shield SB-600. Want to confirm if we can use it for all three surfaces.
No pictures.
Sorry about missing the pictures. Here they are. Also, this surface is more than 25 years old and I do not think sealant was applied before. So there are stain spots on the concrete that powerwashing does not seem to remove. Is it ok to apply on top? Thank you.
You cannot use a wet look sealer on clay bricks and the plain poured concrete. It will dry very blotchy and uneven. You can use a wet look sealer on the aggregate. The SB-600 is not legal for CA though.
Thank you for responding. Is SB-350/400 legal in CA?
I believe so.
We live in KS and just put down timberwood blend tumbled Ledge Rock Paver patio. We are going to put the polymeric sand (Gator Maxx) down tomorrow. We want a wet look to enhance the color and wouldn’t mind a light gloss but don’t the want stones to dark. We’re thinking about the Supreme Shield SB-600. Thoughts? Is there a recommended time to wait after putting polymeric sand down before applying seal? I think I saw 60 to 90 days somwhere. I appreciate your help!
You can seal it now and the SB-600 would work well.
Hi,
I just had a patio done with UniLock pavers. They used polymeric sand for the joints. The patio is nice but looks very dull. I’m thinking we want a wet look, with a semi-gloss look. What is the best solvent based product and how many gallons for 650 square feet.
Thanks!
The Supreme Shield SB-600 is best. About 5-6 gallons for two coats.
Thanks for the reply. I live in Ohio and am wondering if I can have it shipped here? The whole VOC thing confuses me!
For Ohio, choose the SB-350 option for VOC compliance.
Is there a Joint stabilizing sealer from Clemons that can be used for one coat and combine with Supreme Seal SB600 without getting too glossy? i prefer a wet look.. if so, which one should go first?
No, that would not work. You could try the Super Seal Matte. That would give a low gloss and joint stabilizing.
Thanks. Which one gives darker color between Super Seal Matte and SB-600?
Same.
Am unsure between SB-600 or Supreme Seal Matte or /Surebond SB-6000; Is there a place where they are compared with pictures? What are the key differences?
The difference is either solvent or water-based. The SS Matte has a shine that is low like a satin. The others do not have a shine. All 3 give a wet look.
Between the Clemons SB-600 and SureBond SB-6000 which one will give the darker look by enhancing the concrete color the most?
The Clemons SB-600
I am looking to seal a new black coloured stamped concrete patio. It currently looks more grey as there hasn’t been anything applied yet and I would like it to be dark black like when it gets wet. I don’t like the shine of high gloss sealers and was looking for something that gives a more matte / natural look. Will the SB-600 bring out the same darkness as a high gloss sealer would? Or is it going to look lighter? Also I am from Ontario, Canada and was wondering if I would need to purchase the lower VOC SB-350… Read more »
The SB-600 should work for you but not sure which version you should get for Canada.
Looking to seal and enhance my concrete pool deck…looks like SB-600 may do the trick? But also want to seal and enhance the flagstone path…which product is best for those? Both surfaces shown in this pic.
Wet look sealers will not work well for natural stone like Flagstone as they will dry blotchy. Not sure about your concrete deck. What type of surface is this and is it porous? It looks like an epoxy with the dots.
It’s just a concrete deck. The dots are small pits. Not sure if it’s ever been sealed before but definitely not epoxy. Thanks.
Wet look sealers will not work on plain poured concrete as well. Dries blotchy. They are for decorative concrete surfaces only.
Hi! Where can I buy the Supreme Shield SB-600 Wet Look Sealer?The one I see at Lowe’s & Home Depot is the brand Eagle. Is that it?
Check online. You cannot find it at Lowes or Home Depot. Eagle is not the same brand.
I want a non- slip wet look sealer with no shine. Can I use SB 600 on a brushed concrete stairwell to achieve this? Is SB600 not allowed in Ca? Thanks
The SB-600 is not allowed in CA.
I have 620sq ft stamped concrete how much of the SB600 two coats will I need?
5-6 gallons.
Can SB-350 be used on bluestone coping? When applying this to my pool patio pavers, some got sprayed on my pool coping. It doesn’t look bad, it just darkened it a bit in the spots it was sprayed. It is noticeable though so I was wondering if I should just continue on and just use it on the bluestone as well for a uniform look. If not, would the sb-350 blotches come out if I power washed the coping? Thanks for your help
When applying a wet look sealer to natural stone, it can dry blotchy. Not sure if it will do this or not to your coping. You cannot pressure wash it off and stripping would be nearly impossible without damaging the nearly pool water or pavers that are sealed.
Help! My stamped concrete walkway is blistered from a cheap Bayer sealer I put on it a few years ago. Water got under it, it turned white, etc. All the perils folks have been talking about in the thread. I used a concrete cleaner and I power washed which seemed to removed a good amount of it, but there is obviously sealer remaining and it looks terrible now due to the blistering of the old sealer. I understand I am going to need to strip the thing and then reseal with a quality product. I like shiny and dark. Can… Read more »

Use the Super Seal 25 after:

I recently purchased this product (sb-350) and I’m about to use it on my patio pavers next week. Would this work on limestone steps and pillar caps as well or do I seal them with something else? The steps/caps are a matte finish, grey color and stain very easily. I just want to seal and protect them and I don’t necessarily want the wet look for them. Any suggestions?
Do not use this on limestone, it will dry blotchy. Try a regular water repellent like Super Seal-M.
Have aggregate retaining wall, pic attached. Previous seal diamond coat solvent wet look. Can I use the sb600 product to reseal?
Yes, it should be okay.
Have exposed aggregate. Previously sealed with Diamond Coat solvent sealer, pic attached. Can I use shield 600 product?
Is it slippery when wet, I’am looking to use it around my pool stamped concrete deck. THANKS
Typically no.
Should I add a grit to it?
It is not possible to add a grip into the SB-600 since it is a penetrating sealer.
I have 20 year old pressed concrete patio. sealed annually possibly with water based sealer. now I’m trying to remove old sealer and refinish with solvent based sealer. concrete looks good when wet (Two tone colors) but dries to non-discript beige. What is best sealer to apply/. Please help.
Post some pictures here in comment area.
How many gallons of SB 600 for 250 sq feet. Consider 2 coats.
2-3 gallons
I am looking at this product, as I like the wet look. I do have minimal sand in between the pavers. Is this the right product to use? Also, you suggest applying 2 thin coats. With that said, how much time to wait in between applications?
Yes, this would work well. Second coat goes on as soon as the first is dry to touch.
What due do recommend prior to sealing on cleaning the surface of sand? Had pavers installed and waiting 30 days to seal it.
Just give it a light pressure wash.
Can this be applied over CSI Solvent Seal 18/Color Enhancer 22?
It says it is a gloss sealer while the SB-600 is not. That means if you use the SB-600 over it, it will still have a gloss when done.
Ok so will that matter or should I go back with a gloss sealer?
Better off going with a coating like the Super Seal 25 or the Super Seal 30 in this case.
We have a off white coping around our pool in Florida that is approximately 7-8 months old. They are staining and also have a green mildew on them. What is the best product to seal them with.
You would want a clear water repellent like this: https://www.concretesealerreview.com/superseal-m-concrete-water-repellent-review/
I live in southern california. Inland where it can easily get over 100 degrees. I poured 2 pads of concrete. One is for a basketball court (brushed concrete) and the other is stamped for a hot tub Both are non tinted all though we painted lines on the basketball court.
What would he the best sealer for each? Being mindful that one will be exposed to moisture and chlorine and we dont want the other to be at all slippery. Looking for low maintenance here and not looking for the wet look either.
Thanks!
You cannot seal over a paint so not sure what you need for the BBall court. As for the stamped, the SB-600 is not allowed in CA. Try Masonry Saver Decorative Concrete Sealer.
I have stamped concrete with some color in direct sunlight. every sealer I’ve used with in a month the color fades out. in shade area color stays. does your sealer stand up to sun ?
This is not our sealer but yes, it should hold for color but you will need to prep by removing all previous coatings first as it seems you are blushing the sealers from the sun and you cannot fix this without stripping all the failed coatings.
How do I order a specific product on here
This is a review site, not a retail site. Best to search online for buying options.
Will your wet look sealer fix this problem where the pavers have faded only after a year and a half? You can see from my photos that where I had a rug under a round table the original color is still there. But the area in open sunlight has really faded quite a bit. Also, will your wet look sealer cause the white film that I got on my pavers when they were first installed and sealed or was this caused by the type of sealer that was used?
You will have to strip this patio to fix this. SB-600 does not turn white.
I don’t currently have any sealer on my patio. I had it striped off last year when the pavers turned a whiteish color and the sand in between turned a bright white to the point it looked like a checker board. It has been without sealer for about a year.
The darker circular area is the original color of the pavers that was hidden by a rug and the larger gray area is where it faded.
You still have an old sealer on there and is why the one part is white and the covered rug area is not. It needs to be stripped again properly to fix it. After stripping use a cleaner degreaser.
I am not sure what sealer was put on my stamped concrete and the installer won’t answer my emails! He said it was a semi gloss product and there is a slight shine. If he used a penetrating sealer does that prevent me from using any other type of sealer…like the film forming type?
Send pictures.
I tried to drag the pics but no luck
Two pics.
Use Super Seal 25: https://www.concretesealerreview.com/superseal25-semi-gloss-paver-and-concrete-sealer-review/
Will this sealer allow moisture to evaporate from below pavers that have been installed over concrete?
It should.
Should I put another coat of sealer over my brick to get of the haze off after brushing
Not sure what you are asking? Sealers do not remove white haze.
What is the time span from application until it can get wet.
4-6 hours.
We applied a coating of Armor WL550 which didn’t give a wet look at all. Is it ok to apply Supreme shield over that coating?
It will probably not work unless you remove the current coating first.
I just had a pool built and the pool deck as well as the patio are made of Cambridge paver stones with armortec and between the joints is the polymeric sand. My wife and I love the look of these stones when they’re wet but not so much when they’re dry and dull looking. Would the sb-600 be sufficient to achieve that wet look that rain provides, without causing any harm to the stones or joint mortar? Thanks in advance for the help.
It does not harm the sand or joints.
Regarding the SB600 or SB350 that you recommended: Is the coverage of 75-150 sf based on one or two coats? In otherwords, for 500sf with 2 coats applied how many gallons is needed? I have solid cement mortar joints (not sand) between my wire-cut brick pavers – will the SB600 or 350 seal over the solid cement mortar joints too? When future resealing is necessary over the SB600 or 350 applied, do you have to strip off the existing SB600/350? Are samples available of the SB600 or 350? THANKS
Sq footage is for two light coats. It should seal over the cement joints. Just clean and really as needed in the future. As for samples, you would have to ask them.
If you don’t use all the SB350 purchased, how long a life span will the remaining amount have when stored in a sealed container? Thanks for the reply.
Maybe a year if opened.
Hi I have a bowral brown solid dry pressed face brick wall that I would like to prevent water ingress from the rain penetrating the brick over heavy raining days, what clear sealer can you recommend and how long would it last before it will need to be reapplied , is there any product you can recommend to give me at least a 20 year life span , currently over a coupe of days with heavy heavy rain the water penetrates the dry pressed bowral brown face brick and runs down the cavity of the double brick wall home and… Read more »
Masonry Saver Vertical Brick Water Repellent. Last about 6 years or so. Nothing will last 20.
In your reply to my request for a sealer with a no sheen wet look on my wire-cut brick pavers & brick pool coping, you recommended SB600. The issue with the sealer is that it may do little to protect (solidify) the mortar joints between the brick pavers. If my assumption is correct, is there any sealer that’s similar to the SB600 that also provides the joint solidification? Thanks, Mike
No, it is not possible from what we have been told. It needs a heavier amount of acrylic to harden the sand joints and if you do this, you will then leave a shine as well to the surface.
Stamped concrete patio previously sealed with a laquer base sealant. Can I use this product? Spray or roll?
Post a picture of the current sealer on the patio.
Who sells supreme shield SB 600
Search online: http://www.opwdecks.com/wet-look-no-gloss.htm
Can you use supreme shield SB 600 on Unilock pavers?
Yes.
Is this water-based? My newly poured, colored, stamped concrete has not yet cured but I plan to use this sealer when I do. If I use SB-600 every 2 years, do I have to remove the previous layer, or can I re-apply every 2 years without any prep work? Should I wait 30 days to seal my freshly poured concrete?
It is solvent-based. Clean and redo every 2 years is normal. You can seal it now.
Can SB-600 be applied over a newly sealed brick patio?
It was sealed with a product for joint stabilization with no gloss but would prefer a more wet look?
No, it will not work now to enhance the color since it is already sealed.
Is supreme shield SB-600 compatible with Super Diamond clear
No. The SB-600 is a wet look sealer without gloss. Diamond clear is a wet look sealer with high gloss.
What about Super Seal 30 Concrete & Paver Sealer; can this be applied over Diamond clear (e.g., Diamond Clear was applied approx 2-years ago)?
Yes as long as the Diamond Clear has not discolored by turning white which is what it is prone to do since it is a solid acrylic that is not breathable.
What if the paverrs have a sealant on them ???
It depends on the sealer type and how long ago it was applied? Pictures would help.
What if the pavers have a sealant on them ???
can this product be tinted to darken the clear? I have a tiled patio, kind of terracotta color, I had cement poured next to it with color added but is not quite dark enough to match, so would like to put a little more red hue to the poured cement,,, and can this be put on the tile, which does not seem at all porus, but is 20 years old.
No, it cannot be tinted.
2 yrs ago I used a sealer product by the name of MasterKure CC 250 XS formerly Kure-N-Seal 25ES. ..After reviewing your product (supreme shield SB-600), I want to use it to reseal my stamped concrete. I was once told, the product you initially used should always be the one used going forward (re-coating)…Is there any truth to that.??..Is there any concerns if I use your product for my upcoming application ???.
Your issue is that the previous coating created a shine but the SB-600 does not. If you apply the SB-600 over it, it will adhere but the shine from the previous sealer will still be prevalent.
I have 1700 Sq ft of stamped concrete…Is QTY 3-5 gallon cans enough for this size patio ??
It should be.
There is an SB-350 version that is available as a lower-VOC option for those states which require it. Not required for my state, but have read some reviews about the odor of SB-600 being quite strong during application and cure, to the point some people had to vacate their homes for a bit. Are you aware of the SB-350 version and if it performs the same as SB-600? Another website opined there is no difference in performance, but they also sell the product, so prefer an objective opinion here. Thanks!
Also for 700 sq ft of brick pavers (4×8’s) is a 5-gallon pail enough for both coats? Or should I get an extra gallon or two? Note the pavers are about 15 years old and were just pressure-washed and re-sanded with polysweep sand.
The odor and the performance are the same between the two. Low VOC does not mean low in odor. You will need 7 gallons for this.
Got it, thanks. Waiting on weather now. Any advice on rollers to use for this? The box stores never heard of a “solvent resietant roller” and no one heard of such a thing, they think a roller for oil-based paint would be fine.
Oil-based roller is fine.
I have a concrete paver patio which have faded. We like the wet look. Would you recommend the Supreme Shield SB-600 sealer? The patio is 600 square feet. How many gallons would I need. Also, Is one coat sufficient or should a put down a second coat? I live in NJ. Thanks
2 light coats with the SB-600. About 3-4 gallons.
That’s 3-4 gallons for 1 coat? 2 coats would require 7-8 gallons? The coverage per gallon states 75 – 150 sq ft
Is the 3-4 gallons for 1 coat? The coverage states 75 – 150 sq ft. How many gallons for 2 coats?
2 coats. To be safe, get a 5-gallon pail.
