Resiblock Superior Block Paving Sealer – Easy To Apply – Resistance to De-icing Salts – Gloss – 5 Litre

Initially we decided against this product primarily because of the cost - we have a lot of block paving to treat! However we bit the bullet, as we wanted to protect and clean up our block paving, and try to minimise weed growth. The Resiblock was done on our front garden, mainly to test it on a smaller patch so we could decide whether to to the whole of our back garden, too. This was a 5L tin, and the whole tin was used to do two coats of this front area (see pictures) - it just about covered it. Worth noting that the block paving is at least 10 years old and has never been treated, so we had very thirsty bricks! I didn't use the Resiblock application pack (I think this retails for about £40), instead opted for a plastic paint scuttle, brush, mini foam roller and a heavy duty sheepskin long-handled roller - all of which worked out cheaper and worked brilliantly to cover our raised bricks and unusual curved path. Jet washing is an absolute must, and what wasn't cleared away with the jet washer was manually cut out - we had a couple of resistant bits of grass in parts. It was then re-sanded (opted for regular because the no-weed sander was unavailable) and ready to apply. Was fairly quick to apply, and the difference was immediate. We waited around 3 -4 hours to apply the second coat (recommended to do between 2 and 24 hours I think), with the second coat being much easier and smoother to do. Could be walked on within a couple of hours. The bricks now appear much darker, with parts glittering when the sun hits. The colour seems a lot more consistent than what it was. A week later and there is no sign of weed growth, but I am sure some will find their way through eventually, though not to the extent they were before. One of the unexpected results of this was maggots and worms - within minutes of the resin being applied (first coat), quite a few of these made a bid for freedom and tried to get out of the sand! Just had to pick and flick before the resin dried :) I think the product is quite pricey, however the end result is incredible and supposedly lasts for 5 years, so I do think it's worth the investment. We are already saving up to do the back garden - for which we'll need the 25L tin (£177 at the moment!)

Easy to use. Strong smell. Did two coats. Object achieved. I used this to mask an oil mark, from who knows where. It’s worked a treat. I did two coats to prevent oil being absorbed again. I bought two tins of 5l and still have some left, so I was impressed.

Not cheap, but it does work to harden the joining sand and protect the paving bricks. As a result, no stains, no weeds, no ants so far (1 month).The two things to be conscious of, is that it makes your paving look considerably darker, and it looks permanently wet.

Had used this before but last year i tried a different type which was a bit cheaper. That was a big mistake as it never lived up to the hype. This type is the business and my blocks now look amazing again. Would definitely recommend this product

Proper stuff. Works great on the patio. Protects it well.Have tried a cheaper one, never again.This is the best.

The Resiblock eventually arrived yesterday, the can is very badly dented, fortunately it had not leaked, the tracking information was non existent so I’m not very pleased with this service.

superior product at a good price

We applied this by putting the fluid in a roller try and and applied with long handled rollers. Easy to cover the paving and I really like the finish. However, there was strong fumes coming from the liquid. So we did it in stages.
