How
Sealcoat protects your pavement

-Resists untraviolet rays.
These rays from the sun also cause the pavement to deteriorate.
They brake down the links between carbon bonds in the asphalt,
causing the pavement to crumble. Regularly applied sealcoats
prevent ultraviolet rays from penetrating the pavement.
-Resists oil and gas spills.
This is especially important on driveways where cars are
often
parked or worked on. Gasoline or oil will soften asphalt
concrete.
By filling surface voids, sealcoating also reduces the depth
to
which oil and gas can penetrate the pavement.
-Prevents Oxidation
Asphalt pavement begins to deteriorate almost as soon as
it
is placed. As the pavement is exposed to oxygen, the asphalt
binder (tar) hardens. This hardening in time results in
a brittle
surface that will eventually crack. The cracks enable oxygen
and rainwater to penetrate the pavement, often into the
subbase
weakening it and reducing pavement strength. Sealcoating
protects the surface and fills surface voids, reducing the
pavement's exposure to oxygen and water, and extending pavement
life.
