        As long as the stain doesn't act like a paint, which sits on the surface creating a separate layer, you can use it!

      • Hello Cryli-tech 5505 is appropriate for Pool deck area.? is this a slippery surface on washed aggregate?

        All surface sealers have the chance of becoming slippery when wet.  How slippery depends on the surface you are sealing.  If you have concerns about it being slippery, you can add grip to the sealer such as Shur Grip

      • What if my stamped concrete has some super dismond clear left on it in areas? Can I go over it with this product?

        Someone based to solvent based sealer is generally ok, as the new solvent re-liquifies the old sealer

      • Do you have colors in light medium and dark brown

        Cryli-Tek 5505 isn't a tintable sealer.  If you are looking to add color to sealer, you can check out Super Diamond Clear and the Universal Color Packs.

      • I see here you say you can add color, can this be done after I receive my product at home and where do I get it?

        Yes it can. Contact us via email and we can help you out with colors.

      • What product would I use on natural stone (outdoors) before grouting to help keep grout from sticking to stone?

        An acrylic sealer will prevent grout from sticking to stone. Otherwise a form oil would work as well.



      • Can I spay this product, does it accept color packs,

        Yes, ghostshield 5505 can be sprayed.  In most cases, it can also be colored.  

      • Can I use this over painted concrete?

        Generally not. It needs to adhere to the concrete.

      • Can you polish this after it sets?

        The manufacturer does not recommend applying any additional coatings over top of this product.

      • Does a newly poured concrete surface need to be cleaned and etched before coating with Cryli-Tek 5505? What is the average lifetime of a Cryli-Tek coated concrete surface with high foot traffic before it must be re-coated? How many coats of Cryli-Tek should you apply to a new concrete surface? What is the best anti-slip additive to add to Cryli-Tek before coating a concrete surface, and how much should be added?

        It should be clean but does not need to be etched. If you were to apply two coats of Cryli-Tek, with high foot traffic, you could expect 2 years. There are more abraision resistant sealers available if longevity is your goal.

        For anti-slip, we offer Shur Grip and Ultra Grip located here:
