Very pleased with it, good delivery time, used it before, that was why we bought it again, would recommend it
absolutely delighted with this product, we are both in our 70s and although it was hard work for the two of us,as we had to paint and seal each brick ,it was worth it as the back garden now looks fantastic will certainly recommend to friends and will certainly use your products again thank you
We were really very pleased with the product it did exactly what we wanted would buy again no problem very easy to order and fast delivery
Having spent many hours, year after year clearing the weeds out of my patio I decided to clean and re-colour, then seal. It was the best thing I ever did, and now it even looks new again.
The only problem that I had was waiting for a dry day after jetwashing the drive. I have given the block paving one coat of block magic and they look like new. I am waiting for another dry day to give them a second coat and then a coat of clear sealer. Block magic is very easy to use and dries very quickly.
Awesome stuff, really brought my driveway up to the colour i wanted. Support was good when i asked a question. All in all i am happy and now my next door neighbour wants his done too. pity i couldnt upload a photo as i took an birds eye view photo using a drone. what a difference.
I used Block Magic as directed and my paving blocks look brand new. Neighbours have commented how good my blocks look and have now purchased Block Magic to transform their drive. Great product.
excellent product easy to use great results
block magic is a really good block paving product my drive looks fantastic and all of the neighbours are commenting on it. The video that you can watch is a bit misleading as it tells you to add kiln sand after painting but as its bound to be an old drive you are doing up its not necessary. In fact its a problem to try and do it. Better to let your drive look like its solid patterned concrete as the paint will have covered the sand anyway.

Technical
Liquid UV stable pigments blended with acrylic resins and solvents create "block magic". Developed by Smartseal with older block paving in mind, it will not only recolour block paving but protect the paving from future colour loss, weeds algae and staining.
'Block Magic' Coloured Paving Sealer is applied by roller, at a rate of approx 3.0m2 per litre. Make sure the colour has dried evenly across the block paving before appying a clear second coat of sealer.Prior to applying sealer, sweep kiln dried sand into the joints and ideally compact with 'wacker plate'.The sealer will be tack free within 2 hours at 20°C and foot traffic may be permitted after 4 hours. Vehicles should be kept off the sealed area for a minimum of 24 hours at 20°C. These times may be increased or reduced depending on the ambient temperature.
Ensure no rain is forecast for at least 6 hours after application. Do not apply when the ground temperature is above 25°C or below 12°C.
All equipment should be cleaned with Smartseal cleaning fluid after use.
Deicing salts should not be applied directly on sealed block paving or concrete sealers.
Salt chemically reduces the temperature at which water freezes and will result in water ingress into the pavers.
Subsequent freezing may result in the paving 'sealer' being broken by the expansion of water as it freezes and white 'pitted' areas may become visible.
*****NOT TO BE USED ON CLAY PAVERS
Preparation
Existing paving should be pressure washed to remove all surface debris and muck from the joints.
If the area is contaminated with weeds & moss then it should be treated with Smartseal moss clear or weed killer.
Oil and other stains should be removed using Smartseal Driveway Cleaner or Oil Remover.
The treated area should then be left to dry and the joints re-sanded & compacted to the lower edge of the paver chamfers with clean kiln-dried sand.
Moisture in the paver & sand will inhibit penetration of the sealer and produce whiteness.
