Using this specific product
Resene Concrete Clear is listed here as the Clear concrete sealer version for concrete sealing and paving. For repairing concrete or masonry, the useful question is not simply whether the surface looks finished—it is whether the exact next-action milestone shown above has been reached.

- For concrete sealing and paving, pay particular attention to substrate moisture, depth, temperature and protection from traffic.
- Do not apply below 10°C. At 18°C.
How to check readiness
Check the slowest, coolest section before loading or coating. Before recoating, confirm the first coat matches the manufacturer’s stated condition; if the maximum window passed, check whether sanding is required. The label gives a minimum dry time of 30 minutes.
