Reviewing sealers and traffic coatings. Coating probably above and beyond the scope required.

Typical spec would be proprietary. Generic spec would be: deep penetrating 100% silane sealer that combines hydrophobic and oleophobic technologies, providing protection over standard water repellents by sealing out water, oil, grease and food staining from concrete and masonry surfaces. FWIW: I really dislike hearing the expression "sealed concrete" as there are so many possibilities: silanes, siloxanes, acrylics, and silicates. I have to find out if the client wants dustproofing and a "sealed" appearance, water resistance, improved wear resistance, etc, and it is often difficult to get answers.
