What's the best walkway sealer? Plus tips for protecting decorative concrete
Decorative Concrete Institute in Temple, GA.
No decorative concrete walkway installation is complete without the application of a sealer. This final layer of protection will not only prolong the life of your walkway, but also enhance its beauty and make the concrete easier to clean and maintain.

Learn more about sealing concrete:
Film-forming sealers are the type most often used for decorative concrete work, and they do just what the name implies—form a protective film on the surface of the concrete that will prevent the intrusion of water, chlorides and harmful deicing chemicals. Most of them also impart a sheen that highlights the beauty of colored or exposed aggregate finishes.
Tip: Look for a walkway sealer that offers UV-resistance and breathability and reseal every few years, or as needed.
Because good traction is important on walkway surfaces, a slip-resistant additive such as Traction Grip from Brickform can be mixed into the sealer before application to improve traction.
