Nutech Pavecoat H2O Water Based Concrete Sealer 15L
Nutech PaveCoat H2O Water Based Concrete Sealer for Driveways & Decorative Concrete
Nutech PaveCoat H2O is a high-performance water based acrylic concrete sealer designed to protect and enhance both new and existing uncoated concrete surfaces. Ideal for concrete driveways, garage floors, pathways and decorative concrete, this penetrating sealer provides long-lasting protection while improving the colour and finish of the surface.
Unlike solvent-based sealers, PaveCoat H2O features a low VOC, environmentally friendly formula that is safer to apply while still delivering excellent durability and UV resistance. Once applied, the sealer penetrates the concrete and forms a protective layer that helps resist oil stains, grease, abrasion and weathering.
The standard gloss finish enhances the appearance of decorative concrete, making it an excellent choice for stencil concrete, stamped paving and other decorative outdoor surfaces.

Important Application Notes
PaveCoat H2O is recommended for new or old uncoated concrete surfaces only. It is not suitable for application over other existing coatings unless recoating a previous PaveCoat H2O finish.
If the concrete surface is powdery or soft, avoid acid etching or acid washing as this may damage the surface.
Anti-Slip Recommendations
Without the addition of an anti-slip additive, sealed surfaces may become slippery when wet, particularly on smooth or steep surfaces.
For improved safety, the addition of a Nutech AntiSlip Mix-In is recommended. When applied correctly, this can help achieve slip resistance ratings in accordance with:
- AS 4586
- AS 4663 Wet P2 or Wet P3 Pendulum rating
For steep gradients greater than 1 in 14, a higher slip rating such as P5 or R12 may be required.
For these applications, Nutech recommends using EPiC PolyCryl (Exterior & Interior) or EPiC Epoxy 500 (Interior only) together with suitable AntiSlip Cast-On products.

Water based concrete sealers like PaveCoat H2O are increasingly popular for residential and commercial projects because they offer:
- Lower environmental impact
- Reduced odour during application
- Easier cleanup
- Excellent UV resistance
- Long-lasting decorative finish
This makes PaveCoat H2O an excellent choice for sealing concrete driveways, decorative paving, stencil concrete and outdoor surfaces.
Colour Accuracy Disclaimer: We have taken care to display the most accurate visuals of our products. However, we are not responsible for the colour accuracy of the device you are viewing our swatches on. These variations arise due to different computer monitors and devices (make, model and technology, as well as resolution, contrast and brightness control settings) in much the same way a scan will differ from an original image and a colour photocopy. Furthermore, coatings can exhibit variation in perceived colour depending on gloss level and application method. If you require a very specific colour match, please make your selection via actual swatches and colour boards available at our showroom.
Product Disclaimer: Ensure you read all product, technical and safety data sheets prior to application as liability falls on the applicator. All products must be applied in accordance with manufacturer’s recommended method.
