This past summer, Black Diamond Coatings introduced a new line of sealer products called AQUA-XTM. These new products meet the need for professional grade, natural appearance sealers and water repellents for concrete, pavers, stone and wood that are low VOC.

Within the product line, AQUA-X 11 is designed for many hardscape surfaces as a natural appearance sealer, and it is particularly useful on new concrete, while AQUA-X 33 is designed for stone and clay surfaces.
