  2. You have probably heard of seal coating if you are the owner of an asphalt driveway or the manager of a company with an asphalt parking lot. In order to maintain and increase the life of your asphalt surfaces, seal coating is frequently advised. You might be curious about the seal coating procedure and how it will affect your life or your business, though. For you to know what to anticipate the next time you have seal coating work done; we will discuss the seal coating procedure in this post.

  3. Seal Coating: What Is It? Let us take a step back and talk about seal coating for those who are unfamiliar with the term before we get to the actual seal coating procedure. In order to protect your asphalt pavement, you can seal coat it by applying a layer of coal tar, asphalt emulsions, or acrylics. This is like how you would use sunscreen to protect your skin from the sun or a rain jacket to keep your clothes dry.

  4. A seal coat is necessary to shield your asphalt from the sun's damaging oxidation and moisture's potential to create cracking. Additionally, it can defend against substances like gas, oil, and antifreeze that might harm the surface. The method of seal coating results in a uniform hue and a like-new look, which is a final advantage.

  5. Seal Coat: What Is It? The substance used in the seal coating procedure is known as seal coat. Three main categories exist:

  6. Coal-tar emulsions for asphalt Each type of acrylic has advantages of its own. The type of coat to utilize must be decided by seal coating businesses. We utilize a unique Integrity seal coat emulsion at Integrity Paving & Coatings because it is strong, long-lasting, and environmentally safe. It has low VOC and no offensive emissions or aromas. Other coal-tar and asphalt-based coatings on the market fall short of our seal coat emulsion in performance. Additionally, a rubberized hardener that improves adhesion, accelerates drying, and increases effectiveness is included.

  7. The Process of Seal Coating • Every sealing business will have its unique approach, but at Integrity Paving & Coatings, our seal coating process is as follows: • To safeguard renters and automobiles, erect cones, and barricades. • Utilize brooms and high-pressure blowers to sweep the pavement. • Use a specialized oil primer to remove oil stains. • To serve as a primer, apply a light first coat; let this layer to dry. • To achieve a sturdy one-eighth-inch coating, apply a second, thicker coat. • To ensure clean edges and additional sealant, hand squeegee all edges. • Verify the work with a walkthrough to make sure it satisfies our quality requirements.

  8. From spring till fall, seal coating is done. This is so that the process may take place, which necessitates temperatures of at least 50 degrees and climbing and a 40% likelihood of rain maximum. You run the danger of the seal coating not drying correctly if those parameters are not met.

  9. The way the seal coating procedure affects YOU may be its most crucial component. Integrity Paving & Coatings works with you to develop a strategy that will cause as little interruption as possible for your residents, clients, visitors, and employees.
