Frequently Asked Questions

The difference between RejuvaSeal and slurry seals is very simple. Slurry seals do not penetrate the asphalt binder, were RejuvaSeal penetrates up to 3/8 of an inch. Slurry seals are an emulsion and RejuvaSeal is a complex hydrocarbon mixture and contains no water. Slurry seals protect the surface of the asphalt binder were RejuvaSeal protects, rejuvenates and replenishes the natural oils lost through the oxidation process.

Typically all rejuvenators are of a basic design mix; the difference with RejuvaSeal is that we use the highest grades of raw stock materials to manufacture. Many manufacturers us the cheapest materials available to meet the specification, RejuvaSeal does not.

On average 3-5 years, if RejuvaSeal is applied every 3-4 years or as needed, Rejuvaseal could extend the life of your asphalt indefinitely.

It is recommended to be re-applied every 3-4 years after the initial application or as needed, weather factors and seasonal temperatures will dictate this.

The recommendation is to crack seal after the application of RejuvaSeal. All the crack prep, vegetation removal, routing and cleaning of the cracks should be done prior to the application. The main reason is because the Rejuvaseal application creates a clear and fresh bonding surface for the crack seal.

All the dust, dirt, debris, vegetation and moister must be removed from the asphalt binder. The area can be washed with high pressure water and let dry for 24 hours after. The recommended process is high pressure air verses water for obvious reasons.

The ambient surface temperature must be at least 50% F and rising. This should be checked with in inferred temperature gun in multiple locations prior to the starting of the application.

The cure time of RejuvaSeal depends on a number of external factors, ambient surface temperature, air temperature, application rate, humidity, and so on. On an average, sunny, 85 degree day, with a light wind and a lower application rate, 4-6 hours. On an overcast, 65 degree day with no wind and a higher application rate 12-24 hours. Once the application is applied a minimum of 24 hours is recommended before placing traffic back on the surface.

No, the material will need time to cure out prior to applying paint to the surface. Minimum of 24 hours is recommended.

On average there is a 15% to 20% reduction in friction values after the initial application, but over the next 30 days the friction values will return to their previous MU values.

Ideally at the 1-7 year life cycle of the asphalt, the sooner the RejuvaSeal is applied to the asphalt the sooner RejuvaSeal can start to preserve and protect the asphalt from weathering, oxidation and degradation.

RejuvaSeal is a single application that varies from .05 gallons per SY to .085 gallons per SY, depending on the asphalt.

RejuvaSeal should never be applied to asphalt less than 6 months old, preferably 1 year. RejuvaSeal is designed to reintroduce the natural oils back into the asphalt binder that is lost during the oxidation process. Applying RejuvaSeal prior to this loss can potentially over saturate the asphalt binder and cause premature degradation. On the same note, there is a time at the end of the life cycle were the asphalt binder is too far gone to give any beneficial treatment. Every asphalt needs to be evaluated prior to the application of RejuvaSeal.
