Having viewed details on your website regarding re-sealing pattern imprinted concrete. I went to my local builders merchant looking for Resiblock 22, or Resiblock Superier Ultra, as per your suggestions.
The Only product available is Resiblock Superior. It advertises as a wet look sealant, for block paving. Will I be OK to use this on PIC ?

I'm not sure that it is - Resiblock is a Block Paving Sealant, not a general purpose sealant. It has been specially developed for block paving, hence its cost.
Now, this is not to say that it can't be used for PIC, but only Resiblock can tell you that. I'll see if I can get one of their technical bods to give a definitive answer.

Well, I asked and Lynn at Resiblock managed to come up with...
Unfortunately Resiblock Ltd do not produce a sealer for Pattern Imprinted Concrete.
...so you'll need to find an alternative. PICSeal seems to be a popular choice.

Many thanks for trying to get the answers for me on which sealant to use to re-coat my PIC.
Unfortunately God gave me a big driveway but very little patience, and with the good weather at the weekend, I have now sealed my PIC with Resiblock Superior.
So far it looks great, good wet look finish, brought out the original colour and dried nicely. I will monitor it and post details of how it weathers?

Please do - it will be invaluable. I daresay Resiblock don't recommend their products for PIC, which is not quite the same as saying their products are not compatible with PIC.
It will be interesting to hear/see how it goes.
