DryWay Water-Repellent Concrete Sealer - Penetrating Silane & Siloxane for Driveways, Garages, Patios, Pool Decks, Concrete, Brick & Pavers, Flat Finish, Interior/Exterior (5-Gallons)

Have a concrete patio below a wood deck that would get and stay wet after a rain storm for a couple of days. Getting really ugly green algae blooms within the concrete itself and would also attract dirt etc. Deep cleaned the concrete with enzyme based product and then power washed all of the algae out of the concrete. Let the concrete dry out for several days and then applied this product. Application was very easy, but I do recommend an electric sprayer, I bought an $60 battery sprayer here on Amazon.First major rainstorm was early this morning, almost exactly 72 hours from when I applied the product. The results are amazing. The deck is almost completely dry! No water penetrated, except at the edge of the patio where the deck above it sheds water. That portion is drying rapidly and I expect the entire deck to be completely dry shortly.Bought 10 more gallons to apply to the front walkway and the parking area on the side of my house.Good stuff

I am a past customer of the manufacturer's products, having applied the Radonseal sealant to my home's concrete basement floor. I bought the Dryway sealant for my home's driveway. The driveway is about 4 years old, but showing signs of pitting and spalling from winter de-icer and salt. While waiting for the product to arrive I had a few gallons of clear concrete sealant leftover from a past project. I started the driveway using this product, which left a semi-gloss appearance. I then finished the other half of the driveway with the Dryway product. The difference is noticeable. When dry, you really cannot see either sealant. But once it rains or you apply water, on the portion where I used Dryway the water beads up and rolls away. The water simply does not penetrate the concrete. The area where the semi-gloss sealant is applied has areas of water penetration. The surface is also a little slick. The Dryway product truly penetrates into the concrete as advertised. An exceptional product. Just be sure to order more than what you need .because the actual coverage is about 80% of the product description.

Good stuff so far. Hopefully it lasts many years like it claims. Tried rolling and spraying on. Sprayer is definitely way to go. Just make sure to apply enough so almost puddling. Roller was much more time consuming and labor intensive because product did not spread like paint. My concrete was about 8 years old and never treated. I had to order double amount because driveway just sucked it up. I like that product does not leave film or slick surface and water still beads off. Can not tell it has been treated unless it rains and see water beading up. Would have given 5 stars, but to early to tell if Dryway will last as long as it claims.

I used this product to seal my driveway. I pressured washed the driveway a few days before applying. It took 3.5 5gallon buckets to cover 3300 sqft. It was very easy to spray with a normal garden sprayer and then my father followed behind with a deck brush to spread out any areas that I may have over applied. It dried within an hour or sooner. The next day or so it rained and you could see the water beading up and running down the driveway. I actually underestimated the amount I needed so I had to do this project in two days since I needed to order more and in between getting the additional buckets of product it rained and you could easily see where the DryWay had been applied. After finishing my driveway my father saw the results and ended up doing is as well. I would highly recommend this product and will be using it again whenever that time goes.

I have used a different product twice before on the driveway, and it worked great, with the water beading up and the concrete not even turning a darker color when it rained. That product was not available so I tried this one. I applied it exactly as I did the other product, power washing, then waiting several dry days before applying with a tank sprayer. Everything went great, and I even had enough to give a quick second coat on the higher traffic areas. The problem is that a month later, it has rained several times, and I see absolutely no beading of water, or any other sign that this product did anything. The Driveway looks exactly like other untreated concrete areas nearby. Disappointing after spending so much, and taking so much time to apply it correctly.

Water beads up fine but falling leaves on the concrete still leave a stain which is one of the big reasons I wanted to seal the driveway and avoid the staining. Also needed to buy an extra 5 gallon pail to complete the job which according to the manufacturer I should not have had too. This stuff does not cover well and a lot goes a little ways. Next time I need to do this, I'll be trying something else.July 2017 Update: This coating didn't last more than 2 years before I noticed water was no longer beading up. I will have to apply another product this summer. Between the lack of longevity and how much product is required to seal the driveway, I cannot recommend this product.

Application is easy, take several dry days to fully cure, but works well. I've now had it on the driveway for over a year. No! the water doesn't bead, but it repelled the water and snow and the driveway drys quickly so it's preventing water penetration. Excellent product. I originally put it on with a roller. Highly recommend

We have an addition on our house that abuts a brick fireplace chimney. One side of the brick chimney forms a part of the interior wall of the addition. Wind driven rain would saturate the bricks, and would leak through to the inside wall, causing damage to the plaster finished wall where it meets the brick. We have tried Thompson's Water Seal for masonry with partial success, but it never stops it completely and it doesn't last one season. One application of this sealer has worked well so far. We have had five storms with high wind and heavy rain since I applied it, and no leaks so far. Easy to apply with a pump sprayer. Will see how long it lasts, but it is working great so far.
