Granite slab sealing

[RAPressureWashing]

Hello all,
I have just joined the forum after looking at this site for about 2 years, which has been a great help to me.
I have a pressure washing company, have a look at my web-site to see the type of work and standard we achive.
Anyway I have a Granite patio to possibly clean, I'll be using prossco's HD Restoration cleaner, the client has asked for the slabs to be sealed afterwards. I have not sealed Granite before, Block Paving Yes, (I have been on the Resiblock course and am now on the live contractors list etc)
The Granite slabs are a light gray with black specs in colour, unpolished, so could any of you guys tell me what product I should be looking for to seal the slabs with?
Is Granite any different to seal then say block paving?
The area is about 30 sq. mts.
Any help and advice would be much appreciated.

Invisible seal, they just want to have some protection on the surface.

Don't know why the link is not working I'll try to look at it later LLL thanks for letting me know that one.

LLL,
How much Lithofin would say is needed, surface is 32 sq mts.

2 litres would probably do 1 coat
i reckon a litre does 13 m of sandstone but granite is a lot less porous

Finally got to wash & seal the Granite patio.
Here is the before photo,


The after

Unfortunatly the owners father had tried to pressure wash it himself before and has etched the surface in places

The wash was a hydrofluoric acid wash, sealed with Lithofin stain stop.
Many thanks to LLL for the tip on sealer, it worked really well.
