How to repair cracks in asphalt?

Do-it-yourself asphalt repair

If you want to extend the life of your asphalt, special attention must be paid to repairing cracks in the asphalt.

To seal cracks in asphalt, several types of sealants are used.

Bituminous-polyurethane sealant - cold, one-component or two-component sealant. 

It is UV-resistant, wear-resistant, elastic, chemical-resistant. 

It interacts well with asphalt, unlike pure polyurethane sealant, which is destroyed by the sun and bitumen.

Method for sealing cracks in asphalt

• Cracks in the asphalt are expanded, dust removed, a polypropylene tow or a temperature-resistant tow is laid, which controls the consumption of the sealant.

• Seal cracks in the asphalt with a gun if it is a cold sealant or in bulk if it is hot.
