Product Description

Solvent-Based Low Gloss Wet Look Sealer

For Concrete and Concrete Pavers

The Armor AR350 is a solvent based acrylic wet look sealer that is designed to seal, enhance, and protect a variety of exterior concrete and concrete paver surfaces. The Armor AR350 penetrates deep into the surface where it chemically bonds to the pores of the concrete and pavers, creating a long lasting, non-yellowing, breathable finish that enhances dull or faded surfaces by creating a darkened wet look, and low gloss finish.

Uses & Choosing The Right VOC

Uses: The Armor AR350 is designed for use on poured concrete, stamped concrete, aggregate concrete, and concrete paver surfaces. It can be applied to unsealed surfaces, and surfaces previously sealed with a solvent-based acrylic.

Do not apply this product to red clay brick, slate, flagstone, or other types of natural stone. If you are looking to seal red clay brick, slate, flagstone, or any other type of natural stone, consider the Armor WL550 or the Armor SX5000 WB.

Low Gloss Wet Look Finish

Appearance

When applied in clear, the Armor AR350 will darken the surface to bring out the natural coloring the concrete or pavers, and seal it with a transparent low gloss finish.

The actual level of gloss and enhancement received will depend on the type and age of the surface, age, porosity, condition, applicator, application method, and amount of material applied. For an accurate representation of what your surface will look like once sealed, we suggest applying the product to a test area first.

How To Apply

The Armor AR350 can be applied with a 3/8-1/2” nap roller, or a solvent resistant commercial pump sprayer like the Foundation Armor Industrial Sprayer. For a consistent wet look and low gloss finish, apply two coats spaced 24 hours apart.

Time Of Day: The Armor AR350 should only be applied in the early evening when air and surface temperatures are declining, and when the sun is no longer positioned over the surface. To avoid bubbling and hazing, do not apply in the morning or middle of the day.

Surface Preparation: The Armor AR350 should be applied to a completely clean and dry surface. If the surface was cleaned with water or pressure washed prior to application, allow the surface to dry for at least 24 hours before sealing. While pressure washing the surface is typically sufficient, spot treatment may be necessary for deep or older stains. Uses: The Armor AR350 is designed specifically for use on unsealed concrete and concrete paver surfaces, as well as concrete and concrete pavers previously sealed with a solvent based acrylic. If the concrete is smooth or trowel finished, and doesn’t quickly and easily absorb water, other surface preparation may be required to open up the surface pores, such as acid etching or grinding. The Armor AR350 should not be used to seal clay brick, red Chicago pavers, flagstone, slate, or natural stone. If you are looking to seal clay brick, red Chicago pavers, flagstone, slate, or natural stone, consider instead of the Armor WL550 or the Armor SX5000 WB.

Note About Sealing Pavers: Please note, while the Armor AR350 can be applied over paver joints, it is not designed as a bonding agent and will not harden or bond the loose sand in the paver joints. If applying with a roller, loose sand in the joints may cling to the roller and be redistributed across the pavers. For best results, apply first coat with a sprayer if you are applying to pavers with loose sand in the paver joints.

When applying to porous pavers, gloss level may be reduced, and more material may be required to achieve desired finish.

Mixing Foundation Armor Opaque Color Packs: Do not exceed more than 6 ounces of color per gallon of sealer. Stir color well before adding to sealer, then once added to sealer, stir again, ensuring color is evenly mixed. Once cured, will cover like a paint—you will be left with an opaque colored finish.

Mixing Foundation Armor Semi-Transparent Color Packs: Do not exceed more than 1 ounce of color per gallon of sealer. Stir color well before adding to sealer, then once added to sealer, stir again, ensuring color is evenly mixed. Once cured, will offer a semi-transparent tinted finish.

Adding Foundation Armor Non-Slip: For added surface traction, the Armor Non-Slip additive can be added. The ultra-fine, fine, and coarse Armor Non-Slip additives works best in the Armor AR350. Applying the Ultra-Fine: Slowly drill mix 3-6.5 ounces of non-slip additive per gallon of sealer, until completely blended, then apply. For Fine and Coarse: When applying the second coat, add the non-slip additive to the coating using a broadcast spreader, and back roll to encapsulate the non-slip additive.

Clean-Up: Use Xylene or acetone. Dispose of containers in accordance with local and federal regulations. Product Removal: Dried, cured sealer may be removed with the Armor CR100, or by using a diamond grinding method, sandblasting method or similar mechanical action.

What do I do if the sealer turns white or bubbles? If solvent-based acrylics are introduced to water, direct sun, or high heat during the curing process, white spots or bubbles can form. If this happens, simply roll over the areas in the early evening with Xylene, or the Armor Blush Repair, for 30-60 seconds until tacky and allow sealer to properly recure.

Up to 175 FT2/Gallon In One Coat

Coverage

Porous Surfaces: Up to 175 FT2/gallon in one coat.

Smooth Surfaces (once properly prepped): Up to 200-225 FT2/gallon in one coat.

Coverage will vary depending on porosity, surface condition, application method, and the amount of material applied by the applicator. The above coverage rates are estimates and will vary. Two coats are suggested for even coverage and appearance. Please note, if it is your first time sealing pavers, or an overly porous surface, a third coat may be required.

Great product!
Shipped fast and was really well packaged for shippment! Application was super simple and easy with standard roller and a broom handle attached. Followed the directions exactly and had zero issues on colored concrete pavers. Previous owner had slacked on sealing before us so the first coat that I liberally rolled on got soaked in quickly. Pic attached is that 1st coat after 24hrs. Due to the overly dried out pavers, coverage was lower than described. I got about 1300sqft single coat which is inline of their estimates. The second coat does cover better so staying on top of reapplications every 2-4 years should be easier and more cost effective. It really does improve the look of the pavers although you will see alot more white stone spots after due to where the paver color has worn off over the years. But still better looking by far! I did test a secind coat in spots which was also zero issues but not as transforming. But when it rained a few days later it was noticeable how the water beaded better. I experiance none of the cloudy, white, or yellow issues that any of the neg reviews list. And this was done in South West Florida with a SW facing driveway! I did reapply polymetric sand to all the paver joints prior with some joints at the street and side walk being 1". The polymetric sand was preset with water mist 2 days prior and with sealer it became very hard which is perfect! I have already ordered a second 5 gallons to complete a second coat without any hesitation and would highly recomend!

5.0 out of 5 stars Gorgeous on interior floors too...
Reviewed in the United States on August 15, 2023
So we ran out off cash building our house and researched available options to keep the concrete looking pretty until we can afford professional finishing. This product was recommended by a trusted source and we went for it. TLDR: We have absolutely no regrets.

We mopped, scrubbed, and rinsed as much as we could without worrying too much about stains, and applied a first coat 24 hours later. Application was a breeze with a nap roller on a long handle. It was mostly self-leveling, but we do have a few minor puddles. For the love of God, open allllllll your windows and get the fans blowing. I would highly recommend using the buddy system for application to limit exposure and speed things up. With the windows left partially open, the smell was 85% gone by the next morning with no smell after a few days.

I can't remember what the listed coverage is, but 5 gallons easily did two coats on the entire floor of our 1500 Sq ft house.

It does not stay this pretty. It scuffs up just like any finish, but it's still a good, solid protective coating that mops up well and is definitely worth the money.
