BENEFITS OF SEALCOATING

Sealcoat or pavement sealer is a coating for asphalt-based pavements. The top of the asphalt pavement is said to oxidize and decay when left unprotected. The seal coat serves as the asphalt’s protective barrier against wear, freezing, and vehicle leaks. Sealcoat is marketed as a protective coating that extends the life of asphalt pavements.



Sealcoating may also reduce the friction or anti-skid properties associated with the exposed aggregates in asphalt.

SEALCOATING APPLICATION

Prior to application, the surface must be completely clean and dry using sweeping methods and blowers. If the surface is clean and dry, then good adhesion will result. Pavement sealers are applied with either pressurized spray equipment or brushed or squeezed by hand. Equipment must be continuously agitated to maintain the consistency of the seal coat mix.
