How to Seal Concrete with Resinstone Resin

← Back to How much resin do I need for a patio?

Sealing concrete with Resinstone is an effective way to protect patios, driveways and outdoor surfaces from moisture, stains, and wear. If you’re considering treating your concrete, understanding the application and benefits of Resinstone can help you achieve long-lasting results.

What is Resinstone and How Does it Work?

Resinstone is a one-component methacrylic resin designed specifically for sealing and protecting concrete. Its deep penetrating formula creates a robust, water-resistant barrier while still allowing your concrete to breathe. This guard provides strong resistance to chemicals, UV rays, weather, oil and scratches, keeping concrete surfaces looking fresh and clean for longer.

Thanks to its fast drying time—ready for use within 12 hours—Resinstone is practical for patios, garage floors, driveways, and other outdoor concrete areas.

Application and Coverage Guidance

Start by ensuring your concrete is clean, dry, and free of dust or oil. Apply Resinstone evenly with a roller or sprayer. It penetrates deeply, so working methodically ensures a uniform protective layer.

• Coverage: Theoretical consumption is 40–60g per square metre. Plan your purchase accordingly to match your patio size.
• Drying: Surfaces are typically dry and ready for use within 12 hours of application.
• Layering: One generous coat usually suffices, though highly absorbent concrete may benefit from a second application.

When is Sealing Important?

Sealing is crucial for exposed patios, driveways or pathways that endure frequent foot or vehicle traffic, spillages, or varying weather. If your surface is absorbent concrete, sealing helps prevent moisture ingress, staining, and surface degradation. Avoid using Resinstone on loose gravel or non-absorbent surfaces; it’s optimised for concrete.
