I'm thinking we are talking cement here, right? There is a product, not
sure the brand name. It soaks into concrete and when it drys it turns
crystalline; this fills in the porous cells in stuff making it much more
water resistant.


I think it's more intended for basements and foundations but it can be
put on after the fact, like on older houses.

If I can find any more info I'll let you know.
