Additives and heat

2010-08-03T09:24:40Z

Hello Pavemanpro’s! Well its mid summer and i have been all over the place seeing as many of my distributors as possible. I have been asked to explain why some contractors have an issue putting in an additive in hot weather? Well the thrust of that question always gets my blood pressure rising because for the last two seasons on the road speaking and meeting, giving demo’s and actually laying juice with many of my distributors contractor base. We put in additive and let them see for themselves the marked deference in the sealer than without additive. Sealer like any chemical composition reacts to what you put in it. It is a myth that additives should be used only when a contractor wants fass dri, or for night sealing or in marginal weather! We at Maintenance Inc. have always promoted the use of the right additive for what the contractor wants his sealer to do. If the contractor wants a thickener, then Targel-Plus or FSA Plus. If the contractor wants faster drying time, then use FASS DRI PSA, or FSA. We have an additive for what ever the contractor wants. I get tired of hearing that “I only use additives in the spring and the fall?????” Say what? Any contractor that is giving his customer the very best mix design for their sealing application has an additive in the mix. WHY? Additives do so much more than thicken the mix or dry the sealer film. Certain costly problems occur when the ambient temperature in parts of the country exceed 90 -100 degrees. The pavement can reach 140 degrees and is at a particular softening point that can cause wheel depressions from heavy vehicles as well as terrible cutting and scuffing and tracking of the down pavement sealer. Additives thru their chemical make up retard the sealer re-softening issues from heat. Firming up the sealer film and reduce or even eliminate the common tearing of the sealer film.. there are additives that we make that incorporate polymer and synthetic rubbers to firm up the sealer film so you end up with a perfect seal and not a tore up mess. That is huge in hot weather. Additives help the striping paint retard bleeding thru the paint film and additives cause the sealer to dry and cure fast. There are so many advantages to the addition of an additive in your sealer mix design in super hot weather. Pavement sealer cannot handle the extreme heat and adding the right additive will make all the deference in the world. Ask your sealer supplier for Maintenance Inc. additives for everyday use in your sealer mix design. I think you to will be surprised of the great results especially in HOT weather. Well Pavemanpro’s i will be chatting again with you soon. Remember, additives are the right choice and when used properly, will set you apart from the competition in quality and the beauty of your sealing projects.

Large parking lot/roadway crack filling

2011-12-17T20:23:58Z

I am a sealcoater who is largely residential with some commercial experience and I am still getting my feet wet with commercial work. My question is, how do larger contractors bid a larger parking lot with thousands of feet of cracks? I usually try to walk the lot and measure the majority of larger cracks, but especially if there are cars in the lot, and even with out them, its not feasible to do that after a certain point. Surely larger companies are not out measuring cracks in roadways and mall parking lots with a measuring wheel. I’ve heard of some companies charging by the pound for crackfill material, but most customers probably would want an estimate ahead of time, no?

Powrliner 1800M

2011-06-26T14:38:41Z

Hey Dan its Diamond, just wondering if you are familiar with the powrliner 1800M. The reason why I am asking is I have been noticing a little wobble when I am pushing the machine and not sure if it will have any affect on the quality of my lines. I have been practicing on felt paper as you already know, but it does not lay the flatest to the ground. But now I am wondering if this wobbling is adding to the bumps as I go. Guess I am just getting nervous cause tomorrow is my first parking lot and I aim for nothing but perfection. I must add that I did replace the rear axle and tires. I had new ones shipped in from dealer

Also I still can not find where to put piston lube on this machine….I looked for the football shaped plate and still had no luck. I really want to take care of this machine so it last but not sure how. Is there anything else I will need to do to help with the maintaince of my powrliner?

Is there anything out there that will help give nice crisp edges on my lines? They do look good but still think they can be a bit more crisp if you know what I mean. Maybe cause I am practicing with interior latex and not traffic paint..

Oh and one more thing. You mentioned about using your tip as a starting point for your lines. If I line the tip guard up with chaulk line it sprays about an inch and a half off line. I am having a hard time with finding a good spot on machince to line everything up. Any ideas????

Thanks again for all the great input,

Diamond

Entrance ramps stain?

2012-03-20T08:49:51Z

In your book, you advised us not to paint walk ramps, because paint is too slick for foot traffic, but many of my customers want the ramp highlighted. It seems to me that I have 2 options, paint it with traffic paint and add some sand for traction, or use a stain with sharkgrip or traction additive. Are the stains a good choice, and what is a good way to apply them? The ramps are usually small and could be done my roller, easier than spraying.
