Details
The Armor SX5000 WB is a water based Silane Siloxane water repellent sealer that penetrates deep into the surface where it chemically reacts to form a hydrophobic barrier within the pores. The hydrophobic barrier, which can last for up to 10 years, will reduce surface water absorption by up to 95%. Surfaces sealed with the Armor SX5000 WB instantly become more resistant to the damaging effects of water absorption, such as cracking, spalling, pitting, freeze thaw and ice damage, staining, mold and mildew growth, and the formation of efflorescence. Approved by the Department of Transportation in several states, the Armor SX5000 is designed to protect the surface without changing its natural, unsealed look.

Excellent Product
Review by Tim(on 3/2/2018)Researched water proofing for sealing brickwork on two homes and three chimneys and thought this was the best product to use for this application. Although expensive, received the discount for purchasing two 5 gallons and the shipping was excellent. Two coatings for the chimneys and enough to complete the brickwork on both homes and a little left over for a brick patio.
I used as 1 gallon sprayer and the application was effortless. Did not notice any discoloration on the bricks after the application dried.
Thanks
Quality Product
Review by Tim(on 3/2/2018)After having chimneys tuckpointed on two homes, the contractor recommended the work waterproofed 30 days after the work was completed. They recommended a siloxane based product. After doing some research, I thought this was an excellent choice and purchased two 5 gallons as I wanted to go ahead and treat the brickwork for both houses. I purchased a 1 gallon sprayer for this work and the application went well. The respective chimneys were given a follow up second coat and I had a little left over to treat a brick patio at one house. There was no discoloration on the brickwork after the application. So far, so good. Looking forward to long lasting results. I also appreciated the discount for multiple purchase. The shipping was excellent as well. Thanks.
Great!!!
Review by Vanesa(on 12/18/2017)I applied on a patio floor under a deck. I tried with a roller but It would have been too much work because the product is really watery. I ended up running to get a pump and I used that. I contacted costumer services several times and they were great help. It seems that I over applied it in some areas so I got some staining. The product itself is great, you can see the water on the surface after a rainny day. I haven't applied it on the whole patio and you can see and feel the difference between both sections.

Expensive but Great Product
Review by Tom(on 11/2/2017)Very pleased with this product. I used it for sealing my concrete driveway. I called technical support a couple times. Eric was very helpful in advising me on best product to purchase as well as application advice. Granted it has only been several months (time will tell) but thus far I can say it was very easy to apply and so far has sealed the drive well. This product was considerably more expensive than other sealers I was considering. It turned out superior to other sealers I've used and glad I made the choice. I would recommend this product for sealing a concrete drive.
Great Product
Review by LOWERYJJ(on 10/25/2017)I recently purchased and applied the Water Based sealer from Foundation Armor for our 2000 sq ft concrete driveway. Couldn’t be more pleased with the purchase, and the results. The delivery was quick, application was easy once I got the concrete cleaned. The product had no odor, it cleaned up easily, and worked well in agarden sprayer. Had heavy rains 2 days later and it beaded up just as we hoped for. Looks great. My neighbors were all impressed and are thinking of using the SX5000 on their driveways.
SX5000WB
Review by Jackie(on 10/20/2017)Placed my order on 10/2/2017. Received it 1.5 days later in PA. Purchased 3 5 gallon buckets of SX5000WB to treat our driveway and 3 gallons of SC25 to treat my mom's cement. By far, the best customer service I've come across in my entire life! Mike help me pick out the correct products to use on our exposed aggregate driveway and my mom's broom finished driveway. He explained why these products were the best for each type of cement. He fully explained how to clean the cement prior to sealing it. He also suggested products to use to clean the driveways along with instruction how to use these products. These products are not even sold by Foundation Armor. Spartan SC200 was the degreaser that he suggested I buy to remove oil stains from my husband's '69 Charger. I learned how a base vs. an acid cleans different types of stains. Mike's instructions for both products were great. SX5000WB is applied wet on wet and the SC25 is applied as one coat. Mike also shared his experiences of using both these cleaners and both the sealers. Mike helped my calculate how much product I would need for both jobs. He also told me what sprayer to use. Applying the sealers were super easy. Clean up was easy. Both driveways are beading up nicely. I am happy that our cement is now protected from the harsh PA winters. I would definitely recommend Foundation Armor products and staff!
Great product!
Review by FlashII(on 10/16/2017)I now purchased 12 gallons I like so much. Easy to use, goes on smoothly, low odor, water beads right up after a rain. I also like the warranty.
Very satisfied with product and service.
Review by Mike in Maple Grove(on 10/3/2017)We recently purchased and applied the Water Based sealer from Foundation Armor for our 950 sq ft concrete driveway. Couldn’t be more pleased with our purchase, their tech support and our results. They answered all our questions before purchase, the delivery was quick, application was easy once I got the concrete cleaned. The product had no odor, it cleaned up easily, and worked well in our new sprayer. Had heavy rains 2 days later and it beaded up just as we hoped for. Looks great. Highly recommend the product and the company.
Worked well, easy to apply.
Review by Dino(on 9/30/2017)I recently added on to my house which required additional brickwork. Unfortunately the brick is no longer made. I opted for limestone in hopes of offering a nice contrast. I wanted to seal the limestone when completed as well as the brick which was thirty plus years old and had started having leak issues around the chimneys. After hours of research and contacting Foundation Armor (Tanya was very helpful) I decided to go with the SX5000 WB. Delivery was very fast and it arrived in good condition even though Fed Ex did not obey the orientation and stacking labels. I applied the product with a pump up sprayer, the product ran very easily on the brick walls but the stone wall quickly absorbed the SX5000. We have had a couple of showers and the water beads up on the walls nicely. Previously you could see damp spots in the chimney walls where the water had saturated the brick, I haven't seen that so far after using the SX5000, I am curious to see after a long soaking rain. I would recommend using this product on brick and limestone exterior walls.
great
Review by Shea's Total Floor Care(on 8/25/2017)I used this on a new construction pool deck and driveway two days ago. Today in Naples Florida we had 6 inches of rain. I was scared to death. I went to inspect the site and all I saw was water beading everywhere. I was so impressed. the small area I hadn't finished was so much darker than the sealed portion of the driveway. Most sealers only last a year or so in the Florida weather but I think I finally found a great product in the sx5000wb.
Amazing Performance
Review by Bob Sliney(on 7/9/2017)A 1960's poured concrete bluestone terrace over a two car garage presented severe leaking, stalactites etc in a home we recently purchased. Upon a mason's recommendation I skeptically purchased SX5000WB, applied it and waited for the rain. To my utter amazement the garage remained dry and no leaking was evident. I'm a believer and strong proponent of this product.
This product contain Silane-Siloxane which will, as I understand it, help prevent water
Review by Cars2(on 7/6/2017)This product contain Silane-Siloxane which will, as I understand it, help prevent water from penetrating the stamped concrete.
This product went on easy with a sprayer, clear, and dried to a natural, non-slippery finish. Any water applied to this finished walkway, now beads up and appears not to penetrate. This should help prevent any spalling when the temperature drops below freezing this coming winter.
The products been down about a month. We will see in the spring how well it helped to slow down any winter damage.
Along with this sealer I purchased a hand pump sprayer and the application was extremely easy
Review by LCM(on 7/6/2017)Along with this sealer I purchased a hand pump sprayer and the application was extremely easy. I applied the sealer to my brick patio and it went on cleanly and was absorbed rather quickly. Because I wanted to apply 2 coats I applied the first coat in sections as to not allow it to dry before applying the second coat.
Easy to apply and results immediately apparent on drying -- water beads up on surface.
Review by Bill(on 7/6/2017)Easy to apply and results immediately apparent on drying -- water beads up on surface. A great product that works as claimed.
My chimney repair contractor recommended Siloxane as a water repellant for my 60 year old brick
Review by ekm55(on 7/6/2017)My chimney repair contractor recommended Siloxane as a water repellant for my 60 year old brickwork. I checked a mason supply house but they only sold 5 gallon containers so I called around and found I could special order 1 gallon cans through Home Depot. It was almost $70.00 per gallon so I am seriously hoping it is great stuff.
I applied it with a brush, being careful to follow application directions, it was thin, like milk and drippy so use a good drop cloth...a roller is a BAD choice if you are going over brick on a vertical surface, a sprayer might be a good idea but too much surface prep for my small project and you will need a chemical mask.
Following up on a second coat was where I started to see the product in action because the liquid product started to "resist" adhesion on the second application.... I can tell it will be a great sealer for old brick. I will know more in the fall when I go up on the roof again to clean my gutters! I do wonder how long the sealer will last or if I will have to re-coat the bricks annually...
seems to work good
Review by chickenboy(on 7/6/2017)Seems to work good
The product appears to be working as expected.
Review by JimK(on 7/6/2017)The product appears to be working as expected. I used this on brick veneer that had over time (75 yrs) become porous to a degree. The coverage claimed is no where near what I was able to get thus the loss of one star. I was only able to get 80 - 85 sq feet of double application coverage (vs expected 100 - 125). It's still worth it as long as it holds up.
BEST PRODUCT SUPPORT
Review by Elaine Colokathis(on 5/3/2017)The technical customer service was excellent in helping us determine the right product , order processing was also exceptional, they held our shipment until our contractor was ready. They also supported the contractor with application guidance over the phone.
Good job!
Review by Gary Brockhouse (on 5/3/2017)I spoke with the technical folks and they were great. Very helpful, knowledgeable and answered my questions. I placed an order and it showed up exactly as expected. I haven't sealed my driveway yet as it got too cold, but can't wait for spring.
Very easy company to work with, good job and thank you!

great value, good product
Review by peter(on 11/24/2014)Product works very well. Got the product on sale, great price for what you get.
great customer suppor team
Review by Paula G(on 11/24/2014)I am very impressed with the customer service. The staff is very friendly and the technicians are very helpful. Tanya was a great help when I was researching which product to purchase. I needed a driveway sealer and I am very happy I went with this product. I was easy for me to apply and it dried very fast. I look forward to seeing how it performs this winter.
great product
Review by Kennedy S. (on 11/24/2014)Great product, works well. Easy to apply.
very satisfied customer
Review by Howard J. Kent(on 11/24/2014)I am a contractor in New Jersey. I have been pressure washing and sealing the sides of buildings for about 10 years now. Since I switched over to this line I have had a 52% increase in business just from referrals. The product outlasts and outperforms all other water repellents I have tried. It has helped with freeze thaw and salt damage, it has helped with staining, and it has helped with minor leaks through brick walls. My customers are very happy with this product as am I. I can't say enough good things about the performance of this product, or about the customer service. Mike and Eric have always been very helpful. Mark is a pleasure to work with as well. I look forward to a lasting relationship with your company!
Used on garage floor
Review by Ben(on 11/4/2014)Sprayed the product on my garage floor in MN two years ago to protect from water and salt. So far so good, I'm pleased with the product performance.
Used it to reduce dusting
Review by Art(on 11/4/2014)My business has old brick walls that were faded and dusty. Applied a couple coats of the SX5000WB and it stopped the dusting and slightly enhanced the brick color which looks much better than the "old faded brick look." I highly recommend this product.
Zero VOC Sealer
Review by Samantha(on 10/24/2014)I applied this product to my basement walls and it did a great job reducing moisture/dampness. I was grateful for this option because I needed an odorless sealer for a confined space without windows or a door.
