Eco Advance Concrete/Masonry Siloxane Odorless Spray-On Application Waterproofer, Safe for Use Around Plants, Pets, and People, 1 Gallon

I love this stuff. It's easy and forgiving to go on, dries timely, holds up well, doesn't have a shiny sheen, makes the color pop a little more (slightly darkens it but in a richer way), allows the concrete to "breathe", it's good stuff. I put on a new coat on my exterior stone veneers a year or two later and it barely absorbed it because it was still working perfectly fine, in the hot strong sun of Florida. Guess I should've tested if it needed it first, blew my expectations. I just put more down on my driveway pavers after dying them with custom dye. This is my go too concrete sealer now.

This sealer works better than other concrete sealers I have used in the past, as it is a water based product cleanup of my sprayer was a breeze. You can see it working the rain beads up and runs off.

I have tried Ghost Shield ($$$), Masonry Defender ($$, recommended by Bob Villa site), and Eco Advanced ( $ from Amazon Netizen). I decided to use a synthetic paintbrush after using a paint roller first. Masonry is easy to apply since it is the thinnest and requires only two coats. The Eco is the thickest and does not spread easily if the weather is windy or sunny. The Ghost has the best of the three in application; it is substantive yet easy to apply. All three hold up well. Eco Advance, I only use one coat because it is difficult to apply a second coat if the first dries out.

We recently had a stamped concrete patio put in and were advised to put some water proofing sealant on it yearly. I looked at the traditional products that are applied with a brush. I had used these brands before on our deck (which we replaced with the patio) and never was very happy with them. Eco Advance seemed very interesting. I liked that it was water based and could be applied with a garden sprayer. It also had a reasonable price and plenty of positive reviews. I have to say I'm very happy with the product overall. Applying the recommended 2 coats to our patio took very little time - just over an hour. In fact, it took longer for me to pressure wash the concrete beforehand. You do have to watch for the product to pool in certain areas. I think it was a bit more problematic because our concrete has wood-grain stamping. But dabbing it with an old towel took care of the excess. Sure enough, we had some light rain a few days later. The water beaded up on the concrete and either ran off or evaporated over time. It's been on a few months now and I have noticed the same thing each time it rains. The product left no marks or stains on the concrete and didn't have an overly powerful smell. It took approximately 2 premixed gallons to waterproof about 480 square feet. I'd definitely recommend Eco Advance. It takes a tedious chore and makes it much easier. And so far, so good with the waterproofing itself.

Works well! Easy to apply and dries quickly. It leaves a light sheen and repells water. I originally purchased one gallon to try around my pool on concrete with rock pebbles, and liked it well enough to order 4 gallons more to finish the job.

I carefully applied this according to the directions, to my driveway, walk and stoop. I particularly wanted it to prevent the front stoop from spalling in the winter. It did not prevent this.

provides a nice seal over bricks, slight shine. Brightened the bricks. No odor! Biggest worry.

First, I liked this bc it is eco friendly. It is also safe for pets, so I didn’t have to worry about my dogs running through it before it was completely dry. I liked that you used a sprayer to apply. That saved a lot of time. It didn’t stain the cement or cause it to turn a darker color. It’s the only brand I will buy from now on.
