Paving & Concrete Sealer SATIN
Bondall Paving & Concrete Sealer Satin is a hard wearing, water based clear finish for coating clay or concrete pavers, concrete floors, natural stone surfaces and most slate. It will provide excellent protection from staining and soiling and is extremely trafficable. Bondall Paving & Concrete Sealer Satin will dust proof, stabilize and enhance the natural colour of the substrate. Suitable for most interior and exterior applications.
Bondall Paving & Concrete Sealer Satin is suitable for most rough, trafficable, horizontal surfaces. However, on smooth surfaces such as terracotta tiles, smooth texture paved surfaces and dense surfaces friction/grip may be reduced.
Preparation
Surface preparation is critical. It is advisable to allow a minimum of six weeks exposure before sealing onto any newly laid surface. Areas affected by efflorescence, grease, mould or bore stain should be treated with the appropriate Bondall cleaning products. Ensure all surfaces to be sealed with Bondall Paving & Concrete Sealer SATIN are clean, dry and free from dust and other contaminants. Any stains present will become more apparent once sealed.
Allow new concrete to age/cure. Typically allow 7 days for each 25mm thickness. Generally concrete takes 28 days to cure to 90% of full strength.
While a surface that has been cleaned with a high pressure water jet or saturated with water may look dry we recommend that it be allowed to dry for a minimum of 3 days before sealing as the substrate may still contain a lot of moisture.
Surfaces cleaned with acid based products needs to be totally neutralised, as any acid residue present will attack the coating.
Application
Stir well before and during use. DO NOT SHAKE the contents as shaking will produce air bubbles which may become trapped on the surface.
Proper penetration of the first coat is very important. do not allow pooling, this will lead to coating forming a white, milky film.
Apply 1 coat diluted 10-15% by volume with water by brush, roller or spray. Allow to dry for a minimum of 24 hours before applying an undiluted second coat. Over application will increase sheen and slip level.
Drying
Bondall Paving & Concrete Sealer SATIN is touch dry in approximately 2-3 hours at 25ºC but should be left a minimum of 24 hours to dry before re-coating under favourable conditions.

- Bondall Paving & Concrete Sealer is not recommended for use on high density pavers, large format pavers and reconstituted limestone pavers etc. To seal these we suggest Bondall Natural Finish Sealer.
- Do not apply if temperature is below 10ºC or above 35°C or if rain is expected within 24 hours as this could lead to whitening of the coating.
- Ensure adequate ventilation during use.
- Over application may increase sheen and slip level.
