These sealers create a light sheen matte finish to your pavers. Not only will this look better, but the natural-look sealer contains polymers that act as a joint stabilizer, so the sand joints harden much like a polymeric sand. Additionally, a water-base joint stabilizer sealer is a lot more forgiving than an oil-base sealer, and water-base sealers can be applied to damp paver joints or surfaces. For all of the reasons and more, Pavestone recommends a high quality water-base sealer for all brick pavers.
