FAQs
What is Asphalt Pavement?
Asphalt pavements are a mixture of rocks (called aggregates) and liquid asphalt (called asphalt cement or AC). The aggregates give the pavement structure and strength to stand up to traffic, and the asphalt is the adhesive binder that bonds the aggregates together and holds them in place on the pavement. Asphalt has unique elastic physical properties that allow it to flex and recover under traffic. Because of this, you could try this out engineers call asphalt roads “flexible pavements,” and cement roads “rigid pavements.” To improve performance, manufacturers sometimes include other additives. For example, polymers are added to improve the elasticity, and chemical anti-strips or hydrated lime are used to improve the bonding between asphalt and aggregates. Asphalt pavements are typically 95% by weight aggregates and 5% asphalt binder.
What type of paint is used and will it last?
Traffic Marking, 100% acrylic, lead-free high grade premium waterborne traffic and line marking paint specially manufactured and formulated for optimal adhesion and durability. Extremely durable, weather resistance and has excellent resistance to dirt pick up. Designed to meet Caltrans PTWB-01R2. (Other specialty paints and thermoplastic are also used)
How soon can we open the lot after sealcoating/striping?
Generally the parking lot can be reopened for regular traffic after striping within 1 hour of completion or sooner based on weather conditions. The parking area may be reopened 12-24 hours after sealcoating depending on weather conditions. We take every precaution and make every effort to NEVER apply any coatings during or immediately prior to poor weather conditions.
