do you need to add sand to all asphalt sealers or just some of them?

I think all producers of asphalt and coal tar sealers recommend the addition of sand.  Any coating that is applied without sand can be slippery when wet.

Make sure you check with the manufacturer for their recommendations but I think you will find that all emulsions, coal tar and asphalt, should have sand added.
