Solvent-based sealers for pavers can have risks and side effects. If not ventilated, solvent-based sealers’ strong chemicals can release harmful fumes during application, posing health risks.
Additionally, these sealers are highly flammable, so handle and store them carefully. Solvent-based sealers dry slower than water-based ones, which may delay your project.
Finally, solvent-based sealers may discolor or damage certain pavers due to their chemical composition. Thus, before choosing a sealer for your project, you should carefully consider these risks and consult with experts.
