    Sealing and cleaning brick pavers
    We are about to seal our 1 year old driveway.

    What type of cleaner should be used?

    We have some asphalt on a few of our bricks after they did the roadway. How can we remove this?

    We also have the usual tire tracks, few grease stains, and a couple of tiny iron stains, any suggestions on this?

    Should we resand?

    One company said that they don't resand. They put something on the bricks that actually brings out more of the color. They put in on and then rinse it off. Then they seal it. He said this sealer will last 2 years w/o needing another coat in between.

    Thank you
