DryWay Penetrating Concrete Sealer – Silane Siloxane Water Repellent for Driveways, Pool Decks, Patios, Brick & Pavers – Breathable Non-Film Forming (2.5-Gallon)

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

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

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.

Why did you pick this product vs others?: I spoke to a person that knows concrete and he recommended to purchase this product. I bought it and applied it to my concrete sidewalk, driveway, and patio. Two days later it rained and the water sat on top of the concrete. First time in over a year Ease of application: Bought a gallon sprayer and applied to all surfaces mentioned above Quality: Recommended by concrete specialist

Just applied and repeals water excellently. Easy to apply by hand sprayer and broom off puddled liquid. Applied one coat and it seems fine. Will see how the coating lasts.

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.

Easy to apply and works good

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.

I used the product on my concrete driveway, which has a porous surface. I wasn't impressed after the first application and therefore, I applied the second coat, as actually recommended. The water beads on the surface, as expected. However, I got better results on my concrete patio (same porous concrete as the driveway) with the same product, but 1 gal concentrate. I used a 9:1 dilution of the concentrate, as directed for the porous surfaces. It appears the sealant supplied in 5 gal comes in a 19:1 dilution. Still happy with the results for now. Hopefully, will last about 5 years, as advertised. I recommend the product.

Use two coats

The product worked exactly as advertised.No doubt about that.The water rolled off the concrete like water on a ducks back.

Arrived promptly and was easy to apply with the sprayer.

So far so good. I could see it repels water as expected and it didn't change the colour of my driveway. Let's see how long it will last and it will be after the first winter.
