Which Wet-Look Sealer is Best?

Best Wet Look Sealers by Finish

Matte Finish, No Gloss

If you want penetrating wet look sealer and don't want a gloss finish or coating, then the Armor WL550 is the best wet look sealer for your application.

It can be applied to unsealed stamped concrete, brick, pavers, and natural stone. It works entirely below the surface and won't leave behind a visible surface film or coating.

The Armor WL550 is designed to slightly enhance the color of your substrate. For a dramatic color enhancement, consider the Armor AR350 or Armor AR500 instead.

Low Gloss

The two best low gloss wet look sealers are the Armor AR350 and the Armor WB15.

The Armor AR350 is a solvent-based acrylic sealer designed to dramatically darken the color of the substrate to give it a true wet-look finish. It is a great sealer for unsealed concrete and concrete pavers, and concrete and concrete pavers previously sealed with a solvent-based acrylic sealer.

The Armor WB15 is a water-based acrylic sealer designed to slightly enhance the color of the substrate. It is a great sealer for unsealed concrete and concrete pavers, and concrete and concrete pavers previously sealed with a water-based acrylic sealer.

High Gloss

The two best high gloss wet look sealers are the Armor AR500 and the Armor WB25.

The Armor AR500 is a solvent-based acrylic sealer designed to dramatically darken the color of the substrate to give it a true wet-look finish. It is a great sealer for unsealed concrete and concrete pavers, and concrete and concrete pavers previously sealed with a solvent-based acrylic sealer.

The Armor WB25 is a water-based acrylic sealer designed to slightly enhance the color of the substrate. It is a great sealer for unsealed concrete and concrete pavers, and concrete and concrete pavers previously sealed with a water-based acrylic sealer.

Another great option is the Armor AX25 which combines a water repellent penetrating sealer with an acrylic sealer. This is great for areas constantly exposed to water, such as pool decks.

Brick or Natural Stone

Broom Finished Concrete

Broom finished concrete is very porous, so you have to be selective in which wet look sealer you can apply to the substrate.

Typically, you will avoid most solvent-based acrylics simply because it may take several coats to get a consistent color-enhancing wet look finish.

The best wet look sealers for broom finished concrete are typically water-based acrylic sealers.

If you are looking for a low gloss finish you want the Armor WB15 and if you are looking for a high gloss finish you want the Armor WB25.

New, Uncured Concrete

If your concrete is new and hasn't fully cured, you typically want to apply a curing compound or a cure and seal.

For a slight color enhancement you want the Armor WB15 or the Armor WB25. These water-based acrylic sealers can be applied to new, uncured concrete and concrete that is fully cured. They are great for all types of concrete including poured concrete, broom finished concrete, and stamped concrete.

For a dramatic color enhancement, you want the Armor LV15 or the Armor LV25. These solvent-based acrylic sealers are great for new, uncured concrete. Due to the color enhancement, they are best used on new, uncured stamped concrete surfaces.

Very nice product and experience !

Very nice product (AR500)! My 13 year old stamped/colored concrete pool patio was very faded and now brought back to a near brand new look high gloss and color. The team was very informative helpful and provided a sample to me ahead of time to test out in a small area and ease my mind before i moved forward.

Excellent Customer Service provided by Mike

I would like to express my sincere gratitude for the assistance provided by Mike. He was incredibly helpful when I called to ask about your products kind knowledgeable and patient in addressing all my questions. The sealer he recommended for my concrete turned our BEAUTIFULLY and couldn't be happier with the results!!Thank you Mike for your outstanding support. It's a pleasure to encounter such courteous and professional service. Well done!

Easy to apply and absolutely amazing results!!

Bought this to reseal our pavers and they turned out great. Sprayed it on with your typical cheapo pump sprayer ( it will clog after awhile making the sprayer not reusable.) and then evened it out with a regular paint roller with an extension. The results were amazing. Only did one coat for now to see how it holds up in the Las Vegas heat but as of now im extremely satisfied.

Brought back a ten year old patio so easy to use

We had a new dyed and stamped concrete patio poured and had the contractor seal it. After watching him do it I knew that I could seal our old dyed stamped concrete patio on the other side of the house by myself. It hadn't been sealed in at least ten years and had almost no color left to it. After a good pressure washing I applied the AR500 with a high pressure spray tank in a fine mist and back-rolled it. It immediately brought life and color back to the concrete. I allowed it to cure overnight then gave it a second coat the following evening. My job is every bit as good as the contractor's at a fraction of what he quoted me to seal the second patio. This stuff is so easy to use and brought back a ten-year-between-sealings patio to like-new. I'll be doing both patios myself from now on.

Best Product I've Used

I have used this product about 4 times and it never disappoints. I am a homeowner and have applied this myself each time on my aging paver patio. Every time I am stunned at how fantastic it looks after application. I do 2 coats separated by 1 day and the patio looks new (I do powerwash a few days in advance). I apply with a roller with extended pole and it takes me about 30 minutes on a huge patio plus a few minutes of cleanup. Years ago I used big box store products that simply didn't last and never looked as good. If you are a contractor or homeowner try this product. I did have occasion to reach out to their customer support to ask some questions on application to a different surface type and they were incredibly helpful. You just don't get that kind of service anywhere. I don't write many reviews but I was compelled because you just don't find quality products and a company like this one very often.

Excellent Product!! Highly Recommend!!

My patio is over eighteen years old. It was starting to look dull and faded and the prior sealer used just wasn't keeping luster and/or longevity. Overall it had a very poor appearance. I have been researching stamped concrete sealers and came across Foundation Armour. I followed the directions to a tee and the patio never looked so good. I was very impressed with the overall application and appearance. I am hoping to get a couple of years prior to sealing again. I would highly recommend Foundation Armour for your concrete needs.

Great service

I bought the AR500 wet finish my order of three 5 gallon containers within a matter of days.It'll be a few days maybe a few weeks before I can use it but I wanted to get it and have it when weather permits.Sales and Technical Support has been fantastic. I will be doing a follow-up once the product is installed very happy to this point.

Excellent Features !!

My concrete deck has a broom finish but was extremely slippery when wet. About a month ago I applied AR500 and fine grit. Used the seed spreader and rolled on the AR500. Not only does it look awesome; it is not slippery at all - even when wet and my dogs burst out the door! Extremely happy and will buy this product again.

Ar500 slip additive color additive

I used Ar500 plus the fine slip additive. Extremely happy with both. It went on easy. I used a roller & put the non slip additive in the roller tray. Dried quickly and it looks impressive. I used it on my paver walkway & my stamped concrete pool deck. I couldn't be happier!!!! I did alot of research and I came up with Armor. Plus they answer the phone when you call. I also used it with a dark gray additive I got from Armor. I used that on a wall I have around my paver walk way. I am also using the black additive around my pool. Looks great!!!

Great product and customer support

I have tried numerous products on my stamped patio and Foundation Armor AR500 has given me the best finish. You can actually feel the difference compared to other products but make sure that you use a non slip additive with the second coat because it gets slippery when wet. I had to contact technical support and they were very helpful and responded quickly to my emails. Definitely would recommend this product and company.

Garage floor transformation

After a bit of research I decided to go with the AR500 sealer with the Taupe tint for my new garage floor. The product was so easy to apply. and after the recommended two coats the floor looks amazing!

Ar500 review

I have had a stamped cement patio for 20 years. After the product I previously use was discontinued due to environmental issues I tried many others. I purchased AR 500 with high hopes of finally finding a good product. When I was applying I already noted it was thicker didn’t turn white and no air bubbles. The sheen is high gloss and my patio looks brand new. Very please!
