Why Pros Choose Alliance Gator Seal Wet Look
Cheap acrylic sealers cloud, haze, peel, and fail within a year. Gator Seal Wet Look is built different — a deep-penetrating, solvent-based acrylic polymer formula that bonds directly with the paver surface, enhances natural color, and forms a durable protective layer that resists oil stains, grease, UV fade, and salt corrosion. It also acts as a joint stabilizer, firming up the polymeric sand between pavers to help prevent shifting and erosion. One coat. Three to five years of protection. Gorgeous results every time.

- Wait 48 hours at a minimum of 60°F with no rain for the polymeric sand to fully harden.
- Clean the surface with Gator Efflorescence Cleaner to remove trapped efflorescence and prep paver pores for sealer adhesion.

- Test first: Apply to a small hidden 4 sq. ft. area to confirm the finish meets expectations.

Important Notes
- For unsealed surfaces ONLY — cannot be used as a resealer on previously sealed pavers
- For dry-cast concrete pavers — consult manufacturer for compatibility on other surfaces
- Never seal pavers less than 60 days after installation
- Pavers and joint sand must be 100% dry before sealing — trapped moisture causes hazing
- Apply only between 60°F and 85°F — paver surface must be cool to the touch
- Ensure 48 hours of dry conditions after application
- Do not thin or dilute — apply as-is under normal conditions
- Do not allow the sealer to puddle — always back-roll
- Wear protective gloves, eye protection, and respiratory protection (solvent-based)
- Keep away from flames and sparks
- Store above 32°F (0°C) at all times to maintain warranty validity
- Always refer to the latest Gator Wet Look Sealer Technical Data Sheet at AllianceGator.com before installing
Frequently Asked Questions
How long does Gator Seal Wet Look last?
A single application of Gator Seal Wet Look Sealer delivers approximately 3–5 years of protection against oil, dirt, UV, and de-icing salt on properly prepared pavers.
Is this a one-coat or two-coat sealer?
Gator Seal Wet Look is designed as a one-coat (single layer) sealer. Do not apply a second coat — one properly applied coat delivers the full high-gloss finish and protection.
Can I use it on newly installed pavers?
No — you must wait at least 60 days after paver installation before sealing. Always consult your paver manufacturer's recommendation.
Can I use it to re-seal pavers that were previously sealed?
No — Gator Seal Wet Look is formulated for unsealed surfaces only. To re-seal, first remove the old sealer with Gator Clean Sealer Stripper and then apply.
How much area does 1 gallon cover?
Approximately 175 square feet per gallon. Coverage varies based on paver porosity and joint width — porous or textured pavers absorb more product.
How fast is it rain-safe?
Gator Seal Wet Look is rain-safe and water-repellent 90 minutes after application. Allow 24 hours before foot traffic.
Does it yellow in the sun?
No — the acrylic-polymer formula is UV-resistant, designed to maintain clarity under sun exposure.
Do I really need to clean the pavers first?
Absolutely. Sealing dirty or efflorescence-covered pavers traps contaminants under the sealer, causing haze, peeling, and failure. Always clean with Gator Clean and Gator Efflorescence Cleaner before sealing.
What temperature do I need to apply it at?
Apply when air AND paver surface temperatures are between 60°F and 85°F. The paver surface should be cool to the touch — do not apply in direct hot sun.
How do I clean up my tools?
Use acetone to clean sprayers, rollers, and tools before the sealer cures.
Does it stabilize joint sand?
Yes — Gator Seal Wet Look acts as a joint sand stabilizer and film former, firming up properly installed polymeric sand to reduce erosion and shifting over time.
Is it safe around pools?
Yes — Gator Seal Wet Look is formulated to resist pool chlorine and de-icing salt exposure once fully cured, making it ideal for pool decks and pool surrounds.
Can I walk on it after applying?
Rain-safe in 90 minutes. Allow 24 hours before foot traffic and longer before heavy vehicular use.
