Non-Gloss Water Based Sealer
SuperSeal Brick-M is a water based Silicone Water Repellent made of a special hybrid of Silane and Siloxane. SuperSeal-M provides water repellency to porous construction material such as bricks, stone, concrete blocks, mortar, and grout. It is not suitable for very low-porosity substrates such as polished stone. It will not leave a sheen or “wet” look.
The active ingredients in SuperSeal-M Water Repellent Sealer are a mixture of different-size particles, some larger, some smaller to fill different size voids. This ensures good penetration into porous substrates, resulting in good coverage and durable water repellency. Additionally, the active ingredients in SuperSeal-M Water Repellent can chemically react with the substrate, ensuring long-lasting performance.
Water Beads up fast on substrates treated with SuperSeal-M Water Repellent Sealer. The product’s excellent water repellent and fast beading action are immediately apparent. What you will not see is any change in the substrates appearance.
This product offers significant advantages:
- It can be applied to “Green” concrete once bleed water is gone.
- Prevent Spalling from salt and freeze/thaw damage.
- Fast beading action-excellent water repellency.
- Non-SiH: Easy to store and handle.
- Low VOC-Supports your regulatory compliance efforts.
- Water Based-Easy to use and clean up.
- Will not add a slippery film.
Scott, thanks for the reply. Depending on how long ago the acrylic sealer was put on do you have to prep surface any differently other than pressure wash before putting new acrylic sealer on? And if customer isn’t interested in color enhancement, what options are there for just an acrylic sealer. Thanks in advance!
If you want to use a penetrating sealer like the SS-M then you would need to strip off the old acrylic sealer: https://www.concretesealerstore.com/concrete-cleaners.html
If you end up using an acrylic sealer again, then you can pressure wash for prep unless the old sealer has discolored by turning white. If so, you need to strip.
All acrylic sealers will enhance the appearance.
Can this be used on Aggregate Concrete Driveway? If so, how many coats and how long can I tell my customer this will last before another seal job is needed? Thanks!
Most aggregate driveways use an acrylic sealer that will add gloss and a brown tint. 90% or more do this, and that would be the Super Seal30 in the brown tint. While the SS-M would work, it is a penetrating sealer that will not alter or enhance the color of the aggregate. It also will not work if sealed prior with an acrylic-based sealer.
Hello. I sprayed quikrete cure and seal on my slab a few hours after it was poured to help the curing process. Can I seal with this after the slab had cured for 1 month? Do I need to try to remove the quikrete cure and seal first?
You would have to remove the cure and seal. Not sure how to do that. Best to contact quikrete.
Is super seal m considered a breathable sealer? Is a breathable sealer the best option for 120 year old brick walls that have been spalling?
Yes, it is breathable, but no sealer will “harden” the spalling once it has started.

Hi, The Super-Seal-M is a penetrating stain with no shine or wet look. It cannot create air blisters, which can only happen to products that dry on top of the concrete and have a shine/wet look.

I would like to seal a 30 x 50 concrete slab that I had put in my backyard for a basketball court. The concrete has basketball lines painted on it with a hi-solids polyurethane from Sherwin Williams.

You can do it right away as it is a cure and seal.

How does this do around a commercial pool deck and clorine?
Works great with no issues.
The ownership wants something to protect from Chlorine. See pictures from existing pavers. I need something to mitigate it. Your thoughts?
No sealer will prevent chlorine pitting fully but it will repel it for the most part.
Can this be tinted and if so, what type of tint and ratio per gallon? Thanks
No, you cannot tint this.
Hi – I just applied SikaFlex self leveling sealant to fill the joints in my concrete driveway since they were beginning to separate. If I get Super Seal M on the joints I sealed, will it damage the SikaFlex Material?
It will not damage it but it also will probably not penetrate it.
How does this hold up in AZ sun by a pool on concrete pavers? Thx
No issues. It is a penetrating sealer that lasts 5-6 years.
Sorry but no sealer will work well for a water fountain.

The life is 5-7 years so you are coming up soon to reapply.
We have a leak in the flowerbed behind the house – leaking into the basement – we going to dig down in the flower bed – and apply sealer – should we do the inside also?
No need.
I used this on a some concrete a few years ago. i would like to put an overlay on that concrete now. is there another product to treat the surface of the concrete to remove the sealer or does it need to be ground down.
You cannot strip this sealer as it reacts internally with the concrete.

As soon as it is dry, you can walk on it. 24 hours for vehicles. Rain will not harm it once it is dry.

We have some cracks in joints and small hairline cracks in our slab. Should you apply anything else to cracks in concrete before applying SuperSeal M?
No.
Ok great. And still only apply one coat in those areas? There are a few places the concrete is flaking away near the cracks. Do we need anything else on those areas and should we removed the lose pieces or apply the Superseal M over all of it and leave the loose pieces? I included a picture to show you what I am dealing with. Thanks for your help!
Just one coat. No need to do anything to the loose concrete. The sealer and any product we have will not fix those spots.
I understand that. We are trying to protect the slab and it’s flaws as best we can. Superseal won’t damage those spots further, right? We don’t want the incoming snow/ cold weather to cause more damage and in the very least possibly slow down any further damage.
No, it does not damage anything
We put the sealer on a couple weeks ago and had our first rainy day yesterday. THIS STUFF IS AMAZINg! but the water is beading on the top and not evaporating. Should we squeegee the moisture off (it’s not frozen)? Does leaving the moisture beaded up on the concrete do any harm to the concrete or sealing finish?
No harm, it is fine to have the water dry on the surface.
We cannot force people to write personal reviews on our websites. Sorry
The product is excellent and we have never had a bad review or an issue.
Thank you for your quick response. I would have thought people would care enough to write great reviews, though people tend to write negative reviews first. Should place my order by tomorrow.Hosea
For applying Superseal-M with a hand pump sprayer, how fine should the spray be… fine mist, powerful stream, or somewhere in between? Do shingles and plants need to be protected from Superseal-M?
Use a wide fan tip. Cover plants.
We just used this product on a brick wall and the client wants it to be ‘more’ sealed. Which additional product of yours can we now apply to make it ‘dust proof’ over super seal M?
You cannot coat over the top as it would repel the additional coating.
What does this type of sealant guarantee?
It seals and waterproofs your brick for 5-6 years.
Can I use a 3200 psi pressure washer to apply this sealer?
No, you can never apply a sealer with a pressure washer.
Can I use this product on the concrete garage? Should I use paint roller or sprayer to apply?
You can and apply with a pump sprayer.
