Ratings & Reviews for Ghostshield Siloxa-Tek 8500 Penetrating Water and Salt Repellent Water-based Flat Ready-to-use Concrete sealer ( 1-gallon )

Works as advertised

I needed to seal the cement pad outside my front door as the idiot builder didn't apply waterproofing "before" creating the pad. Instead, they waterproofed "around" the finished pad. Well that doesn't help when the rain pounds water "into" the top of the pad and then into the wall of the basement. Argh! So GhostShield to the rescue.....I apply this about every 2 years to repel the water off the pad. Helps about 95% but rain is very persistent, and it faces the Southern sun.

SILOXA-TEK® 8500

Works great. Definitely recommend. Will buy it again!!

excellent product

Water started beading off the pavers the first time it rained. Since we are coming into rainy season here, this product will protect our new patio. Very pleased.

EXCELLENT!

Easy application. 2 coats went on easily. The next day the concrete was showing beads of water on top! The clear natural seal was perfect for our silo, cement base to the barn & the entry steps. Thank you!Highly Recommended :)

Great product, easy to use and works!

Very easy to apply and I did not notice at all any Smell of the product. Applied it just like the instructions stated, and it did not alter the color texture of the brick that it was applied to.

Just an awesome product

I cannot believe how well this works. They say you can spray it on but I choose to roll it for better coverage. The water beads on it and does not penetrate the concrete at all. They also make a product that repels oil had I known that I would spend the extra money and get it.My driveway on the right with sealer vs the neighbors untreated driveway

Just rained.

Works as described. Water beaded like on a waxed auto.

Great product

Product works great easy to use. One of them had a hole it upon arrival,but contacted Lowes & was sent another one without any issues

Driveway sealing project

The rating is for ease of use and application. Too soon to rate for endurance and longevity of protection. Product more user friendly than expected. Easy to mix, did not clog the sprayer, rolling was easy. Cleaning the sprayer was quick and easy. Our western Massachusetts weather was the only thing that concerned us. We thought if we applied the sealer end of September we would not have to deal with the heat..that we would have time to work in the coats before it started to dry…but we got rai...

Easy

easy to apply, used sprayer, 2 coats 8500 beads up and drains off nicely

Not a full gallon of product.

There's not a full gallon of product in the container. There's just a hair over 3 quarts in the container that says 1 gallon.

Great product !!

We used this on our pool deck . Super easy to use and you can see it beading up when it rains . Excellent customer service too !

Easy to apply

My only negative was that if you want to paint over it, I was told you can only use oil-based paint. Why would anyone use oil-based paint with concrete and good luck finding it.

Review

So far, it’s only been one week, we can actually see it protecting our concrete. I hope it last.

Water beads up

Only had it down a short time, but when it rains the water beads up and rolls right off , hopefully will stay like this for years to come.

Concrete pool deck protection for harsh winters

The concrete color remained unchanged,there is no sheen so surface doesn’t become slippery when wet and water repellency is excellent.I hope it last for years as stated!

So far so good!

Just applied 2 days ago. Easy application, the calculator was correct when calculating our sq. ft. It didn't change the appearance of the concrete.
