Just resealed my Asphalt Driveway with the Henry 4 Year Product, but followed all recommendations from this Video. A few points I would highlight for best results: Definitely fill cracks/pot holes as instructed in video, and be sure to clean as instructed. I would highly recommend flipping the buckets as he mentioned, but *also* would Highly Recommend using a corded Power Drill with a Stirring Bit. Even with a Drill, the "top sludge" does not move for a minute under stirring. After about a minute, you see the solid and liquid finally mix. I mixed shy of 5 minutes after seeing a good vortex for 30+ seconds and the color looking uniform. We did follow his method of combining buckets and that helped with keeping the color consistent. I would also recommend "pulling" in the same direction for the duration of the project. If you move the material in multiple directions, it will show (it's minimally noticeable). Thanks for the advice!

It just seems to show more depth and last longer in the Minnesota winters. Next I may underlay with wood-grain panels and apply sealer coats for a more unique affect. Great inspirational video.

Get buckets with same batch code for color match. Use squeegee to spread them 1.25" nap roller to even out and pull excess down as you go....if you have a rough textured asphalt. If not be prepared to use at least double the product. Keep driveway misted wet as you got...helps spread and prevents dry edge. Mix for 5 mins...if using a stick or that small mixer bit maybe. Get a proper grout mixer and mix about 30 seconds.

I had a landscape business and did hundreds of driveways all by hand. I found these cheap combo brushes with a squeegee useless and the finished product looks amateur. I went to an industrial supply store and bought a nice squeegee for doing windows and only used that to apply the rubberized sealer. Do it just like you did with the brush, but only use the squeegee to it rides flat and leaves additional sealer in the little dips and holes and thinner where the asphalt is smooth. The nice soft rubber squeegee left an excellent finish with no brush marks or overlaps.

@firewoodguru9 жыл бұрын
I should add when it's hot, it always worked best to lightly wet down the driveway ahead of sealing with water based sealer. Oil based sealer is not recommended at all. Do not wet down the driveway ahead of time and expect it to be slippery when it rains and snows. Oil based sealer is shiny and once applied, you can only use oil based, you can't ever use water based afterward because it will not adhere. Also, when your driveway is steep or you want extra traction for the winter, you can add clean sand to the mix. It works really well and can add tremendous safety especially when walking on the driveway to get the mail etc. Also, many times the blacktoppers told the homeowners to wait a year before applying sealer, but you can apply sealer to new blacktop as soon as water stops beading up on it. It's best to seal it before the first winter if you can. Regardless of what the can states, two coats are always best for a nice smooth finish and to allow the sealer to fill smaller cracks to keep water out. Water will get into the cracks, then freeze and make a mess out of your asphalt.

The rubberized kind doesn't heal itself. Only drawback, driveway takes twice as long to cure before parking on it. Have to mix a day in advance for the 2 sealants to break down. May need a pint of denatured alcohol to help with mixing. Otherwise, doesn't blend well.

+CaesarInVa Hi, for this product, the company wants the brush to be used. Each formula is a little different, so take a look at their application recommendations. We have more tips in our home improvement book www.amazon.com/dp/B01BK2K0JM?ref_=pe_2427780_160035660

I’ve hear others say you need to only pull and not push with the squeegee.

Hi, this is what the manufacturer recommended when I tool some training from them. Some suggest using a brush, some products require a squeegee. Follow the application instructions for the product formulation you are using for the best results.

RULE No. 1: NEVER apply driveway sealer wearing anything OTHER than your cleanest, newest white sneakers. Absolute must. RULE No. 2: NEVER edge your driveway BEFORE applying sealer.

Your kinda hard on the guy. I usually seal my drive on a minimum 90° day, wearing flip flops and shorts. No lie.

@@c.a.g.3130 Note also, when edging the drive leave all grass and debris on drive, it acts as a reinforcement for sealant when cured. I do agree hot, humid and a strong chance of rain is best conditions.

its really nice and thank you. but there is some mistakes you auready did. witch was the way you push foward toward your wall. witch is not good. for that because you will get the seal onto your wall paint. another is that, i could see the lines at they end where you stop at and left it there. you dont want those bumps on your driveway. but its nice though. thank you for sharing your video as well. um a seal coated myslelf. and also work for "Black Diamond Asphalt LLC" here in Spokane WA.

Why is it important to go after oil spots with a degreaser before resurfacing? I'm asking as I have 3 or 4 oil spots, one that is huge.
@FIXITHomeImprovementChannel5 жыл бұрын
Hi, most blacktop sealers won't bond to oil spots. You may have to use an oil spot primer. Check with the manufacturer for their recommendations on a specific product if you have a bad oil spot.

How well does the henry work and how long does it last
@FIXITHomeImprovementChannel16 күн бұрын
Hi, it holds up well. Recoating depends on the warranty. Many companies recommend recoating after about 1/2 the length of the warranty. So for a 7 year warranty, you would recoat after about 4 years depending on how much use the driveway gets and wear from your climate.

We have a very steep driveway that we are repaving. We would like to have some extra grip. Would it be appropriate to add sand when mixing to add grip?
@thorclyde26047 жыл бұрын
Would add wire brush scrubbing @2:52. Too much dirt in the voids will cause the seal to fail. Seems like the detergent water only does so much.
