What Does Alliance Gator Seal Satin Look Acrylic Paver Sealer Do?
Low gloss satin finish with enhanced color Alliance Gator Seal Satin Look delivers a refined low gloss finish that enhances the natural color of concrete pavers with a subtle satin sheen. The finish makes pavers look cleaner and more vibrant without the heavy reflective gloss of a wet look sealer.
Deep penetrating acrylic formula Alliance Gator Seal Satin Look penetrates deep into the concrete paver structure rather than forming a thick film on the surface. This deep penetration ensures the protective properties work from within the paver, creating a more durable and longer lasting seal compared to surface-only coatings.
Protects against oil, dirt, de icing salt, and UV damage Alliance Gator Seal Satin Look creates a barrier inside the paver that resists oil and dirt penetration, de icing salt corrosion, and UV ray damage that causes paver fading and color degradation over time. Sealed pavers are significantly easier to clean and maintain.
Acts as a joint stabilizer In addition to sealing the paver surface, Alliance Gator Seal Satin Look penetrates into the polymeric sand joints and helps stabilize them, reducing joint erosion and extending the life of the jointing material between re-sanding cycles.
Rain safe in 90 minutes Alliance Gator Seal Satin Look is water repellent and rain safe just 90 minutes after application. Once rain safe, light rain will not damage the applied sealer. The sealed surface is ready for foot traffic and normal use after 24 hours.
One coat application Alliance Gator Seal Satin Look requires only one coat. Applying a second coat is not recommended and will not improve results. The spray and back roll application method ensures even coverage and removes excess sealer that could cause uneven appearance or pooling on the surface.
How to Apply Alliance Gator Seal Satin Look Acrylic Paver Sealer
Critical pre-application requirements: Pavers must be at least 60 days old. Surface must be 100 percent dry. pavers and jointing sand both. Temperature must be between 60°F and 85°F.

All stains, efflorescence, and existing sealer must be fully removed before Alliance Gator Seal Satin Look is applied. Test on a hidden 4 sq ft area first.
1
Remove all stains and strip any existing sealer
Remove all oil, grease, and rust stains using the appropriate Gator Clean products. If any unknown coating exists on the paver surface, remove it completely using Gator Sealer Stripper before applying Alliance Gator Seal Satin Look. Applying over a contaminated or previously sealed surface will result in poor adhesion and sealer failure.
2
Replace contaminated jointing sand
Remove all contaminated jointing material and replace with fresh Gator Polymeric Sand following the standard installation instructions. Allow the new polymeric sand to harden for a minimum of 48 hours at above 60°F with no rain before proceeding to the next step.
3
Clean the entire surface with Gator Efflorescence Cleaner
Clean the entire paver surface with Gator Efflorescence Cleaner. This removes any efflorescence trapped in the paver pores and thoroughly cleans the surface to ensure proper sealer adhesion. Wait at least 48 hours at above 60°F with no rain after cleaning so the surface and polymeric sand are completely dry before applying Alliance Gator Seal Satin Look.

Apply Alliance Gator Seal Satin Look in 60 sq ft sections
Using a sprayer, apply one coat of Alliance Gator Seal Satin Look in sections of approximately 60 sq ft at a time. Do not thin or dilute the product. Apply evenly across each section before moving to the back rolling step. Work in sections to ensure the sealer does not begin to cure before the roller step is completed.
5
Back roll immediately with a solvent resistant foam roller
Immediately after spraying each 60 sq ft section, use a solvent resistant foam roller (grey) to back roll the Alliance Gator Seal Satin Look, removing excess sealer left on the surface. This step is critical to achieving an even, consistent finish. This is why two people are recommended. one sprays while the other back rolls. Apply one coat only.
6
Allow 90 minutes to rain safe, 24 hours to full use

All three are acrylic based paver sealers that provide the same protection against oil, dirt, de icing salt, and UV damage. The difference is finish appearance only. Natural Look leaves pavers looking exactly as they do unsealed. no sheen at all. Alliance Gator Seal Satin Look delivers a low gloss satin sheen that enhances color slightly. Wet Look provides a high gloss finish that makes pavers look wet and dramatically deepens the color. Most homeowners choose Satin Look as the balanced option. Call us at (856) 418-4895 and we can help you choose.
No. Alliance Gator Seal Satin Look is specifically formulated for unsealed surfaces only and cannot be used as a resealer over an existing sealer coating. If your pavers are already sealed, you need Gator Seal Resealer, which is designed to penetrate and reactivate an existing sealer. Applying Alliance Gator Seal Satin Look over an existing sealer will result in poor adhesion and sealer failure.
Wait at least 60 days after new paver installation before applying Alliance Gator Seal Satin Look. New concrete pavers need time to fully cure and off-gas before sealing. Sealing too early can trap moisture inside the paver, cause discoloration, or prevent the sealer from properly bonding to the surface. Always consult the paver manufacturer for their specific recommendation on when to seal.
The application process requires spraying the sealer onto the surface in 60 sq ft sections and then immediately back rolling with a solvent resistant foam roller to remove excess sealer. This must happen quickly before the sealer begins to cure. With one person, it is very difficult to spray and back roll fast enough to avoid uneven application or pooling. With two people. one spraying and one rolling. the process moves efficiently and the finish comes out consistent and even.
Coverage is approximately 175 sq ft per gallon, though this varies based on paver porosity and joint width. More porous pavers and wider joints absorb more sealer and reduce coverage. For a 500 sq ft patio, plan for approximately 3 gallons. For a 900 sq ft driveway, the 5 gallon size will typically cover the full area.
