We laid black limestone paving in June/July 2016 and it has taken until now (June 2017) for all the efflorescent and unsightly marks to disappear. All the paving is now the same colour ( a kind of steel grey) and we now want to use a sealant on it all as every time it gets a mark on it or there is bird droppings I have to wash it all with hot soapy water.

Reading the forum last year you mentioned Aqua-Mix Enrich & Seal or Miracle 511 Seal & Enhancel. Both are Impregnator sealants suitable for black limestone. Would you still recommend these products?

Looking online, the Miracle 511 Seal & Enhance seems the easiest to obtain (from Amazon) at £77.90 for 946ml.

Our paving covers approximately 14sq.mt. Would 946ml be enough for two coats? I haven't seen a larger quantity online.
Thank you for your help.

You won't get Aqua-Mix anymore they pulled out of the UK about 18-24 months ago, the Miracle 511 Enhance & Seal is excellent for Black Limestone, you should only need to do one coat, you can also get it from here, these are the importers of Miracle products

Thanks Pressure Washer for the link to Tiling Logistics. I've ordered 946ml and an applicator for less than Amazon wanted for just the Miracle 511. Now all I need is so many dry days before we can apply it to the paving. Try and get a week here without it raining at some point is nigh on impossible huh.
