Kim,
The polyurethane would seal the brick. I recommend the water-based Diamond Coat Varathane Polyurethane.

Posted by: The Flooring Lady at October 14, 2009 08:52 AMThanks for your the recommendation. Some places in the grout are very chalky looking. Do I need to do anything to these areas before putting the polyurethane on?

Grout does tend to look chalky sometimes, but can usually come clean. Make sure it is as clean and dry as possible, before applying the poly. I would clean it with just a little warm water. If it gets too wet, allow extra time for it to dry completely.

Tonya,
Clear sealers should not be showing up white once they are completely dry. It is possible there is something applied to the pavers from the factory that caused the discoloring. You should contact the manufacturer of the products you are using. You could ask them both what would be best to remove the first sealer, and how best to refinish to allow the natural colors to show through.
