Water-Repellent Driveway Sealer that Lasts!

You Do Not Have to Seal your Driveway Every Year!

The common driveway sealers sold in stores need re-application every year. But not DryWay Water-Repellent Concrete Sealer! DryWay penetrates and seals for many years to come.

DryWay protects concrete driveways and sidewalks against water, spills, molds, and deterioration. Treated concrete and masonry will bead or shed water for years to come, reducing cracking, pitting, spalling, efflorescence, rebar corrosion, molds, and algae. Spills wipe off easily.

DryWay provides durable protection to concrete surfaces against attack from:

  • surface water
  • oil and chemical spills
  • road salts
  • freeze-thaw damage
  • chlorine ions
  • moss and molds
  • airborne contaminants.

This advanced penetrating concrete sealer does not leave a film that will peel or wear off but forms a long-lasting water-repellent barrier inside the concrete. It does not alter surface appearance or texture. The treated surfaces shed water or bead.

DryWay water repellent concrete sealerDryWay concrete sealer will keep your driveway dry! After a rain, it dries out soon while other driveways will still look dark because of all the absorbed water. Liquid spills can be easily wiped or washed off. Paints, stains, or adhesives do not adhere. Snow and ice do not stick.

How DryWay Sealer Works

DryWay is the latest and most advanced type of penetrating water-repellent sealers for masonry – a penetrating water-based emulsion of siloxanes and silanes. The sealer's small molecules penetrate up to 1/2 inch into the substrate, depending on porosity and moisture content. The sealer reacts chemically with the substrate and itself, bonds and cures in long-chain molecules. It is like filling the pores with silicone caulk. The seal does not trap water vapor and allows the concrete to breathe and dry out.

For maximum penetration and durability, DryWay has the highest siloxane/silane content in its class of sealers. Its performance exceeds the requirements of NCHRP 244 and federal specification SSW 110 C. It may take a week or two to fully cure. Water-repellents are not suitable for underground applications with negative side water pressure like in basements.

Durability

DryWay is inherently resistant to UV-rays, heat, and oxidative degradation. Moreover, it is hidden deep inside the pores from the sun and elements. It will not yellow and there is no or little gloss. The water-repellent barrier becomes an integral part of the substrate and there is no film to peel or wear off. The treated concrete driveway or masonry will be protected for many years with an estimated service life over 10 years.

Sealed areas will not absorb rainwater and will dry out quickly. Even if the surface stops beading, it will still shed water and protect the substrate. DryWay bonds to itself and can be re-applied to increase water-repellency or beading of the surface.

Product Use

Although sealing driveways, garage floors, and parking areas are the most popular applications, DryWay Water Repellent is effective on a wide range of concrete and masonry substrates, horizontal or vertical:

Poured Concrete 150 – 200 750 - 1,000
Brick or pavers 120 – 150 600 - 750
Concrete block 80 – 120 400 - 600
Splitface blocks 50 - 80 250 - 400

Actual coverage depends on porosity of the substrate.

Blocks and porous surfaces may require two "wet-on-wet" applications 5–10 minutes apart. Split face blocks may need three applications. The additional applications are lighter.

Quick and Easy Application

The substrate must be sound, porous, clean, and dry. Let new concrete cure for at least 28 days. Remove any paints, sealers, or adhesives. Clean off contaminants like curing compounds, oil, grease, dirt, wax, and efflorescence.

Air and surface temperatures between 45 and 90°F. Do not apply to hot surfaces in direct sunlight (the sealer would flash off) or in strong wind

Spray on with a low-pressure sprayer like a pump-up garden sprayer or adjustable airless. 

  • Apply DryWay in a saturating film (on the verge of puddling). For vertical surfaces, apply from the bottom up allowing 4–6” controlled run-down.
  • Do not over-apply. Spread out any puddles with a roller or push broom until the sealer penetrates into the substrate.

User- and Environment-Friendly

DryWay Water-Repellent Sealer is water-based sealer, non-toxic, nonflammable, and very low VOC's (volatile organic compounds). Its low odor allows application in occupied buildings. It does not contain chemical solvents, is non-hazardous and VOC-compliant (< 50 grams/liter VOC). DryWay avoids the explosion and fire hazards of conventional alcohol- or solvent-based silanes and siloxanes.

clay tile roof sealed with DryWaySeal Your Roof Tiles against Black Stains!

If you live in a high-humidity area (like Florida), then you are familiar with the unsightly dark stains spreading on your clay roof tiles that downgrade the appearance of your whole house. Clay roof tiles, pavers, and bricks are porous and high humidity along with frequent precipitation leads inevitably to the growth of molds and algae inside the pores. This eventually damages the integrity of the substrate.

Regular cleaning is required. Power washing removes most of the stains from the surface but the results are only temporary. The pressure will water the roots of molds deep inside the substrate. Within a year, the hideous black stains will be back again. Yearly cleaning becomes costly, bothersome, and potentially dangerous (acrophobics beware)! The repeated pressure washing will wear off the tiles.

What to do? How can this exhausting and costly cycle be stopped? Simply seal your roof tiles with DryWay Water-Repellent Sealer! DryWay's superior water repellency will stop the absorption of water into the substrate and prevent the growth of algae and molds for years to come. It will keep your roof looking pristine, as good as new! And it will save you time and money on the repeated washing.

The same problem and solution applies to brick walls, pavers, and concrete in shady areas where algae and molds like to grow.
