How do you remove driveway sealer from concrete?
It depends on the type of sealer used. Penetrating sealers can't be removed so we will stick with topical sealants. Some topicals like acrylic sealers might be dissolved with various chemical cleaners (assuming it water-based--solvent based sealers are much harder to remove chemically). If the sealer is starting to peal or delaminate then a cleaner and powerwasher may help lift the rest of the sealer off the surface. If you know what type of sealer was used, contact the manufacturer and get suggestions on removal.

Brick sealer solvent for in home use?
Never use a solvent sealer inside a building or home. The high VOC's (volatile organic compounds) they offgass can be toxic to breath for many months after applying. The safe alternative are water-based sealers. Water-based sealers (water being the liquid carrier for the solid content) come in a variety of types: siliconate, silicate, acrylic, urethane, polyurethane, silicone, silane, siloxane and polyester (see related link below for more info on this product). Some of these are penetrating sealers and others are topical.
