Can this sealant be used on all types of paving?

The sealant is suitable for use on porous and non-porous stone surfaces. Always test on a small area first to ensure compatibility.

How long does it take for the sealant to dry?

Drying time varies depending on environmental conditions. Always refer to the manufacturer's instructions on the product label for specific drying times.
