What, if any masonry products are considered non-porous? I assume CMU is

Thanks in advance for sharing your knowledge.

Hard fired brick, some ceramic tiles, some types of marble,
granite, smooth concrete that has been sealed, some types of
masonry finishes, such as epoxy coatings, etc.

You're so literal! I thought he was asking about mortar and concrete
