Discuss Exterior natural stone patio marked by water after sealing in the Canada Tile Advice area at TilersForums.com.

Hi all,

I have recently sealed my natural stone patio and have found that when it gets wet it leaves a white mark almost as if the sealant has been lifted.
I have read another thread that says this is because one of two things has happened, either the sealer was not applied correctly and moisture has got underneath or the sealer is not breathable and it was applied whilst the stone was still damp. From the picture can you tell if one of these is the case? If so is there a way to fix this without removing the sealer? Any advice would be very much appreciated. Many thanks
