How long after gator patch before you can seal whole driveway? Do you use a oil base or latex sealer over gator patch?

@chrisryan8863 10 месяцев назад

Hi Judd. How long does the repair tend to last?

@AsphaltKingdom 24 дня назад

You can sealcoat when it the gator patch hardens. Usually a couple hours after. Just a light coat.

@AsphaltKingdom 24 дня назад

@chrisryan8863 depends on the repair but as a temporary patch solution it usually lasts a year or two but again depends on the severity of the deteriorated asphalt.

That driveway they are on, look at it, the white line, and behind the guy applying, and to the left and to the right, it's beyond help, it needs to be repaved when it looks like that, and why a pallet (36) for $2150, $60 a bucket, for contractor, but (3) 5 gal. buckets is $550, $183 a bucket!!! for homeowner!! A little price gouging!! Lol 🤣

No prime coat? And did yall mix the stuff up in the bucket before hand? Looks like it would separate in a bucket like paint would over time.. and how do you blend it in to not look like a big obvious patch job?

@AsphaltKingdom 2 года назад

That’s correct. No prime coat needed for gator patch or sealcoat. It is thick like mud and doesn’t separate. In regards to the big obvious patch, always best to sealcoat the complete parking lot or driveway surface after to make it all uniform and black.

This product is recommended for normal sized cracks (1/2" wide & 1/4" deep). If it's larger, you need to consider using hot rubber crack filler. In your case with dirt showing, a cut and patch might be necessary.

Fantastic question and generally you’re pricing at around $15 per sq foot for alligator cracks. It’s really designed to be a patch solution not designed for a whole driveway or parking lot. Small areas that are showing signs of extreme cracking are ideal to use gator patch on. Clean well with a wire broom and then gator away!

@dereksdiatribe 3 года назад

Here's the question: Doesn't this product dry/cure to a darker color than the remainder of the driveway assuming you're sealing the rest of the drive way? I had someone come and use a similarly named product and I could see all the areas patched with this product because the product dried darker than the other stuff. The only way I can think of is to do the entire driveway in this product to even out the driveway, then seal over it with another sealer?

@AsphaltKingdom 3 года назад

Good morning and great question! The gator patch will cure as a smoother surface and be slightly darker than the rest of the surface due to its darker pigment of one coat of sealer is applied. You’ll get way more consistent results if two coats of sealer are applied. Also, the key is to solved the cracked problems so that water doesn’t get in and erode the foundation causing potholes and depressions leading to expensive repairs and an unsafe surface.

@dereksdiatribe 3 года назад

@@AsphaltKingdom So, the only way to get a uniform look without replacing all 2,000 SF of asphalt would be to use this product over the entire surface? Or is there a product that does dry the same color? It screws with my OCD when I can see the darker stripes underneath the seal coating.

@AsphaltKingdom 3 года назад

@@dereksdiatribe We would never recommend applying gator patch across the whole surface. It’s designed for alligator cracked areas and that is all. You’re much better to take care of the cracked areas with this and have a slight difference in surface smoothness with light discoloration versus leaving the cracks open that would eventually come potholes that are unsafe and extremely expensive to repair and or a tremendous eyesore. The other option is to repave it but frankly the cost of doing that when you could do a small repair isn’t ideal in our opinion.

How long between coats? An hour, a day, a week?

@AsphaltKingdom Год назад

This really depends on the weather conditions outside. As an example, if in the hot summer, you could seal coat a second coat within a couple hours but if it’s cool in the high 50s and overcast, they could take a day or two before you do your second coat. The real key is to have the first coat completely dry before doing your second application. That’s why it’s good to spray your first code a little bit more thin as your primer code and then do your second application as your permanent final coat.

... so summary in a nutshell if you use this product you're going to have to expect imperfections on the color of your driveway after you sealcoat correct? Unfortunately, customers will be disappointed after when the driveway does not look uniform color wise. I understand the principle behind trying to repair alligator cracks but nowadays customers will be upset if the driveway does not have the same color results after.

@AsphaltKingdom Год назад

The color tone will be the same once you sealcoat it. The texture will be different however because of the lack of aggregate. Homeowners who don’t repair the cracks will have the eye sore of cracks and also the pavement will be on fast track to deterioration as water will destroy the base leading to unsafe potholes and depressions that are tripping hazards and lead to liability challenges. Much better to proactively maintain and reactively repair as needed to keep it safe, prolong the life saving money and making it look better.

What’s best to kill ants coming up through small ants wholes in driveway ?

@AsphaltKingdom 11 месяцев назад

There are various methods available to get rid of ants from your driveway, and they range from natural home remedies to commercial pest control products. Here are a couple that I'd go with: Borax Bait: Mix equal parts of borax and a sweet substance like powdered sugar. Place the mixture near the ant holes. Ants are attracted to the sugar and will carry the lethal borax back to their colony. Commercial Ant Baits and Insecticides: These can be purchased from your local garden or home improvement store. Just be sure to follow the instructions on the label for safety.

@AsphaltKingdom 3 года назад

Good morning! The solids in gator patch are way higher providing the ability to seal cracks and small holes that sealer simply wouldn’t. Gator Patch is more of a mud like material with the binding agents that you find in both sealer and asphalt itself. You wouldn’t be able to repair alligator cracks with Sealcoat. You’d want gator patch for sure.

Paul Ozeruga gator patch has its place for application and so does hot rubber.

@allan6021 Год назад

Alligator cracks like you show are NOT caused simply by water intrusion or asphalt aging. There are caused by a weak base under the pavement. Asphalt is flexible, unlike concrete, but it’ll only bend so far before cracking. The only way to fix that situation is to remove the asphalt, strengthen the granular base and repave.

@AsphaltKingdom Год назад

This would be an ideal permanent patch but is significantly more costly than a temporary patch.

@allan6021 Год назад

@@AsphaltKingdom Your product seems to be prepared and applied like a sealant. It’s a very temporary repair at best. If the property owner does proper crack sealing as they happen then alligator cracking is much less likely (assuming a decent design and construction in the first place).
