Seal Coating
With
any asphalt pavement, oxidation will to occur over time,
causing the surface of the asphalt parking lot to become
dry and brittle. Eventually, this will lead to the
erosion of the small particles on the surface, leaving
small cracks and larger stones. If left untreated, the
result will be larger cracks and potholes that allow
water to penetrate the asphalt, causing base failure and
requiring costly repairs.
Seal
coating is the process of applying a protective coating
to existing asphalt with squeegee or spray wand. When
used in combination with crack sealing, seal coating
protects your pavement from the effects of sun, oil and
gas leaks, salt, and other harmful agents. Seal coating
is designed to slow the oxidation process, extending the
life of your pavement. In addition, it provide a fresh,
clean surface that is visually appealing and allows for
ease of sweeping and bright, clear pavement markings.
The ASMA (Asphalt Sealcoat Manufacturers Association)
recommends that new pavement be sealed from 6 to 12
months after installation and every 3 to 4 years
afterwards as necessary.
