What weather conditions can TARMASEAL be applied in?
We would recommend totally dry conditions, with temperatures of 10° C or higher. Tarmaseal can be applied in slightly lower temperatures, but lower temperatures will extend the drying times. Be warned that if rains falls on Tarmaseal before it is fully dry, the area will probably need to be re-coated.

If I want to keep my tarmac looking like new can TARMASEAL be applied every year?
Yes, regular applications maybe every 2-3 years will keep the Tarmac in excellent condition. Also if Tarmaseal is re-applied regularly, subsequent coats will require a lot less material.
-
Do I have to use a roller to apply TARMASEAL?
No, but a Roller is the easiest way, especially for larger areas. For small areas, a paintbrush or soft broom could be used.

How long before I can re-use my driveway?
For vehicle use we would recommend a minimum of 24 hours, it is generally suitable for foot traffic in approx 4 hours.
-
What size area will a litre of TARMASEAL cover?
This will depend on the age, porosity, texture and general condition of the Tarmac. A relevant factor will also be how Tarmaseal is applied, the normal rate of coverage that can be expected is between 2 and 3 m² per litre when applying a two coat application. Therefore if applied by a roller a 20ltr container is likely to cover between 40 - 60m².

Can TARMASEAL be applied on partially damp surfaces?
We would always recommend application to dry surfaces although a little damp will not be a problem if does not affect the overall drying process. In reference to aesthetics, adhesion or product performance it is not a problem.
