Concrete ColourSeal - MID GREY
(Sample, 5L & 25L) Colour, Seal and Protect Untreated Concrete. Hard-wearing product, suitable for Floors, Parking Areas, Bases and Paths. Ready to apply.
Smartseal Concrete ColourSeal mid-grey is a formulated blend of highly concentrated pigments and hard-wearing acrylic resins, that will transform and protect external concrete surfaces. Superior to a concrete paint in mid-grey it provides lasting protection to driveways and patios.
Concrete ColourSeal mid-grey is the perfect way to enhance the appearance of concrete bays, paths, bases and parking areas (not to be used on imprinted concrete or previously sealed or painted concrete).
Suitable for Power floated and Screeded concrete surfaces.
Application is simple and easy by roller or brush, with two coats recommended for long term protection.
Concrete ColourSeal's unique formula is UV light and stain resistant. The sealer will soak deep into the porous voids of the concrete, acting as a highly effective dust proofer and concrete hardener. It can be applied on smooth or textured surfaces (coverage rates may be reduced on tamped or rough concrete). Can be used as a more durable alternative to a concrete driveway paint or a grey concrete patio paint.

PREPARATION:
Fully clean the surface of the concrete using a power washer and drive clean xtreme or patio clean xtreme. Allow to completely dry for a minimum of 72 hours. Apply in temperatures between 12-23 degrees centigrade. Allow 2 hours drying time between coats. Only apply in dry conditions with no rain forecast within 6 hours after application.
APPLICATION:
It is important to thoroughly mix before and during use, ideally with a plasterers paddle. Apply 2 coats by brush or roller (3 coats may be required on older paved surfaces). Add the anti-slip additive if required to improve the slip resistance of the surface. The surface should be fully dry after 24 hours.
COVERAGE:
Average coverage is approx. 4sqm per litre on the 1st coat and 6-8sqm on the 2nd coat.
Q: Why can't SmartSeal Concrete ColourSeal MidGrey be used on imprinted concrete?
A: We would not recommend using the Concrete ColourSeal - MID GREY on imprinted concrete as it hasnt been formulated for that purpose. Imprinted concete should be sealed using the imprinted concrete sealer with a colour tint added if required. The amount of colour required (if any) will vary considerably, depending on the age, porosity and amount of colour loss on the surface.
Q: Hi, I have a 40sqm powerfloated screed surface in my garden, 80mm thick, laid over a compacted hardcore base with a DPM membrane to help prevent rising moisture. I'm planning to apply your Concrete Colour Seal, which I've already purchased, and I'd like to confirm the ideal timing. Does the screed need to be completely dry throughout its entire depth before application? The surface has been curing for 6 weeks. It was last exposed to rain 3 weeks ago, and since then I've covered it ahead of any further rainfall. With current UK weather conditions, I estimate it will be fully dry through the depth in around 8 weeks. However, after conducting the plastic sheet test for 12 hours, I still noticed some condensation buildup. Could you please advise: Whether partial drying is acceptable prior to sealing What surface moisture level is acceptable for application Any recommendations on timing and best practices for use Thanks in advance for your guidance. Best regards, Seb
A: The surface and substrate needs to be completely dry. If there is moisture present it could result in whitening (blooming) on the surface as it start to dry out. It is best to wait until the concrete screed is as dry as possible before applying the concrete colourseal.
Q: Is this ok to go over concrete slabs that have have previously been solvent based sealed (xylene) 5 years ago?
A: It will be OK to apply the Concrete ColourSeal over concrete slabs that have have previously been sealed 5 yearts ago with a solvent sealer that was xylene based.
We used Concrete ColourSeal - MID GREY on our garage floor. The project went very well and very easy. The product is quite liquid so covers easily The roller and scuttle helped make the job easy as well.
Great product, we wanted to improve the look of a concrete base where our garage had been demolished, this paint certainly did the trick, very pleased with the result and would recommend 100%
