What happens here
Once the edges are cut in, pour the 'Solvent Seal 25' into a 5-gallon bucket with a screen. Using either a 4-inch or 9-inch nap roller, apply the sealer to the main surface areas of the concrete. The video shows the immediate effect of the sealer bringing back the color and adding a glossy sheen. It is crucial to apply two *thin* coats and to avoid puddling or pooling of the product. If puddling occurs, the sealer could peel.
Goal: Apply an even and thin initial coat of concrete sealer.
