GILSONITE ASPHALT SEAL

GENERAL DESCRIPTION

Gilsonite Asphalt Seal provides a black pavement sealer composed of hard gilsonite asphalt resin in solution in relatively fast drying solvents.  It adds asphalt resins to aging blacktop as well as sealing and protecting the pavement against the effects of weathering.  Gilsonite Asphalt Seal is the easiest of the pavement sealers to apply, and it gives a deep, black finish with a bit of sheen.  Unlike water base sealers, it will not be damaged by freezing weather, nor will it wash off if caught by a rain shower before completely dry.

USES

Gilsonite Asphalt Seal protects and beautifies asphalt driveways, playgrounds, tennis courts and parking lots.  It replenishes the asphalt resins in asphaltic pavement and gives limited protection against gasoline and oil damage.

LIMITATIONS

Gasoline and oil spills should be washed off promptly.  Long term pooling of these spills will dissolve the coating and damage the asphalt pavement.  This is a solvent based material and should be kept away from flames.
