Very good point!  Unfortunately due to a lack of understanding and an in depth education on Sealers and what they do and don't do, most traders buy on price or what their mate says and never even consider:

Performance
Longevity
Coverage
Type of application
Suitability
Aesthetic appearance

They then in turn are not in a position to educate the client so end up not bothering to do it or seal it with the totally wrong thing.  Remember that lead you gave me for that Landscape Gardener??? ;D ;D

Here you go these two both do the same thing in that they are both Impregnators / penetrating and both of them enhance!

Which is cheapest?

http://www.tilinglogistics.co.uk/index.php?route=product/product&path=60_68&product_id=250

Don't forget as well that the Miracle is only a US Gallon so only 3.785Litres

Info can be found on both products at these links:

Masonry teaches that each person, through self-improvement and helping others, has an obligation to make a difference for good in the world.

The answer was "its cold so wear many coats" - sorry wrong question.

Personally I think  http://www.aquamix.com.au/products/sealers/enhancing-sealers/ is the correct answer - I have just cleaned a patio I toshed over last year and it still looks very good. I drove to the end of my road and nowhere near the M25 for this job

All premium enhances leave it with a matt damp look when applied properly.  You only get some shine if you leave excess sealer on the surface.  Go and pour water on dry concrete then wait until it has soaked in!  That is the look Enhancing sealers give you but permanently.
