Answer 1

I am a paving contractor and while I'm not familiar with Kure N Seal 30 I would recommend for stone that you use a good quality penetrating sealant suited for your particular material. Sandstone is often more porous than limestone and requires more sealant. Granite and basalt are fairly impermeable but benefit from sealing just to repel mold and slime growth if the pavers are in the shade or stains from spillage of oil or food.

Cheap sealants don't last long and require re-application about every 2 years. A matt finish is better than gloss and I've found the wet-on-wet application products the easiest to apply (you keep applying the product until the stone won't absorb any more).

I hope this helps.
