the sealer to dry from the bottom up which does not need a lot of sunlight to dry , this makes it ideal for nighttime sealcoating .
• Fast Sealer -- This silicone fortified latex copolymer additive is designed to improve workability and handling of the sealer material and reduce the drying time . It is said to make the sealcoat work better , last longer , dry faster and blacker .
• Dual Action Additive -- Intended for faster curing time and a viscosity modifier to thicken and gel up diluted sealer . This is a dual-action polymer / copolymer latex additive .
• Fast Sealing Additive for Asphalt Emulsion -- Since coal tar sealers are restricted in some states , an asphalt emulsion mix can be an alternative to gain strength and stability .
• Rubberized Polymer Additive -- Designed to improve the sealcoat performance by locking in sand for better dispersion . It is said help improve gas , fuel and oil resistance and reduce scuffing and power steering marks on the asphalt surface
Sealcoat additives can enhance the properties of asphalt sealcoating .
“ Additives allow contractors to stay more competitive , by giving them the power to create flexible solutions , a more controlled job , a higher quality coating , and a better customer experience ,” stated Rick Poole , president of Diamond Shield Fortifier , Alexander , Arkansas . “ With sealcoat additives , a contractor can tailor the job for a customer in many ways . They can achieve quicker dry / cure time , a blacker appearance , and increased bonding or more petroleum resistance , all while having extra control over the environmental conditions that the coating will be placed in , reducing liability and damage to the coating integrity and appearance while greatly reducing wasted time and resources through fewer trips back to finish a job .”
Sealcoating additives have proven to be a real asset since the very inception of sealcoating . At the very onset , both governmental ( e . g ., FAA specifications ) and commercial entities have determined that sealcoating additives boost the overall performance of sealcoating and have a marked effect on their overall durability of the paved surface .
“ Additives are real assets for enabling the contractor to offer performance benefits at incremental cost increase to their customers , especially the ones who recognize the benefits for added cost ,” Dubey said .
For some , the successful effectiveness of sealcoat additives can actually be a deficit as Zeke Adams , operations
