PW Paver Wash™
PW Paver Wash Cleaner. The best seal starts with a clean surface, and each hardscape surface has distinctly different qualities to remember when cleaning and then sealing. PW Paver Wash™ stands out as the best general-purpose paver wash for concrete and clay pavers, retaining wall blocks, brick, and masonry as a must-use product to prepare pavers for sealing. PW is easily applied to remove ground-in dirt, efflorescence, polyphase, and more while opening surface pores for optimal sealer bonding.
Remember to spot clean with an SRW Specialty Cleaner first, then clean the entire surface with PW Paver Wash before sealing.
Why is cleaning before sealing important? Always clean before you seal for the best sealing results. SRW Products always recommends using PW Paver Wash™ or DW Dual Wash™ before sealing a project. Cleaning solutions pull dirt and debris out, opening up pores and leaving an ideal surface for the sealer to bond, while pressure washing alone drives dirt and debris deeper into the pores.
