Bare concrete is porous and vulnerable to chemical attack and stains. Hence a sealer is used to seal the concrete counter top. The sealer should be applied to the concrete in multiple thin coats versus rather than a thick heavy coat. For additional protection food-safe finishing wax can also be used over the sealer.
