Natural-Looking Protection for Stone & Concrete Paving
Pavestone Natural Finish Stone Sealer is designed for customers who want to protect their paving while retaining as much of the original colour and character as possible.
Unlike colour-enhancing sealers that deliberately deepen and intensify stone tones, this product provides protection with minimal alteration to the natural appearance of the paving.
This makes it particularly useful for lighter natural stone and paving schemes where maintaining the existing colour is important.
Suitable for Natural Stone Paving
Pavestone Natural Finish Stone Sealer is suitable for a wide range of natural stone paving surfaces.
It can be used on different surface finishes including:
- Honed natural stone
- Smooth stone surfaces
- Rough-cut natural stone
- Polished stone surfaces
- Natural stone patio paving
Always test the sealer on a small, inconspicuous area before treating the complete surface to confirm the finished appearance is suitable.
Suitable for Concrete Paving
The sealer can also be used on concrete patio paving where a protective treatment with minimal change to the original appearance is required.
The product penetrates the paving surface and helps provide protection against moisture and staining without creating an obviously heavy surface coating.
Repels Water, Oil & Grease
Pavestone Natural Finish Stone Sealer provides strong resistance to water, oil and grease, helping reduce the penetration of everyday contaminants into porous stone and concrete surfaces.
By limiting absorption, the sealer can make routine cleaning and ongoing patio maintenance easier while helping reduce the risk of permanent staining.
Breathable Water-Based Sealer
The water-based formula allows the treated surface to breathe while still providing effective protection against moisture and contaminants.
This breathable performance is particularly important for natural stone because moisture vapour within the paving needs to be able to escape rather than becoming trapped beneath an impermeable surface coating.
Coverage
Coverage depends heavily on the porosity and surface finish of the paving being treated.
Approximate coverage from a 1L container is:
- Honed / low-porosity surfaces: up to approximately 30m² per coat
- Medium-porosity surfaces: approximately 15m² per coat
- High-porosity surfaces: approximately 7.5m² per coat
Highly absorbent stone may require additional coats until the surface is adequately saturated, so actual product usage will vary between paving materials.
Natural Finish or Colour Enhancing Stone Sealer?
Pavestone offers different sealers depending on the appearance required after treatment.
Natural Finish Stone Sealer is the better choice where protection is required with minimal alteration to the paving's existing appearance.
Pavestone Colour Enhancing Stone Sealer is designed for customers who want to enrich and intensify the natural colour, depth and character of their paving.
Choosing the correct sealer before application is important because the finished appearance can differ significantly between natural-finish and colour-enhancing treatments.
Preparing the Paving Before Sealing
The paving should be thoroughly clean and dry before the sealer is applied.
Pavestone recommends cleaning the surface first where necessary to remove dirt, grime and residues. A suitable Pavestone Patio Cleaner can be used as part of the preparation process before allowing the paving to dry fully.
Do not seal over dirt, staining, cement residue or other contamination, as this may become trapped beneath the treatment.
How to Apply Pavestone Natural Finish Stone Sealer
Apply the sealer generously and evenly to the clean, dry surface using a suitable light-pressure sprayer, foam roller or paint brush.
More absorbent paving may require additional coats. These should be applied in accordance with Pavestone's current application guidance until the surface has received sufficient treatment.
Always remove excess product and avoid allowing pools or heavy residues of sealer to dry on the paving surface.
Application Temperature
Pavestone's technical guidance states that Natural Finish Stone Sealer should not be applied when temperatures are below 5°C or above 25°C.
Always check weather conditions before exterior application and follow the current product label and manufacturer's instructions.
Can Natural Stone Be Sealed After Installation?
Pavestone Natural Finish Stone Sealer can be used as part of the finishing and maintenance process for newly installed paving, provided that the surface is correctly prepared and sufficiently clean and dry.
Pavestone's natural stone installation guidance recommends thoroughly cleaning and drying the paving before sealing to help achieve an even and effective finish.
Helps Make Paving Easier to Maintain
By reducing the absorption of water, oils and other contaminants, sealing can help make routine cleaning easier and reduce the chance of staining becoming deeply embedded within porous paving.
Sealing does not remove the need for regular cleaning, but it can make ongoing patio maintenance simpler and help preserve the appearance of natural stone and concrete paving for longer.
Why Choose Pavestone Natural Finish Stone Sealer 1L?
Pavestone Natural Finish Stone Sealer 1L is an excellent choice for customers who want long-lasting protection without significantly changing the original appearance of their paving.
Its breathable water-based formula helps repel water, oil and grease while protecting against staining and weathering, making it suitable for natural stone and concrete patios, paths and other paved areas.
With coverage ranging from approximately 7.5m² to 30m² per litre depending on surface porosity, the 1L bottle is particularly useful for smaller patios, targeted areas or trial applications before treating a larger paving project.
