About This Product

Waterproof your concrete and masonry services with this Vital Coat X-440 5 gal. Pail Clear Concrete Sealer and Water Repellent. This sealer is low-VOC with a high solids content so you can quickly seal porous concrete. When applied, this product penetrates deeply and chemically reacts with the concrete to repel water. X-440 is a non-yellowing, UV-resistant sealer that does not leave behind a visible surface film and will not change the look or color of the surface preserving the natural characteristics of the treated substrates. It protects concrete and masonry surfaces including architectural concrete, concrete block, split-face block, pavers, stucco, porous and dense brick, clay tile, etc. It is also an excellent choice for high-traffic areas because it does not create a slippery film on top of the surface. X-440 helps protect your concrete and masonry surfaces to resist common issues such as staining, cracking and other damages caused by intrusion of water.

Highlights

  • Provides protective hydrophobic barrier to prevent water penetration
