DESCRIPTION:

Coldpave PB is a ready to use, high quality economic slurry seal formulated for hand application. Used for sealing all lightly trafficked bituminous surfaces that are beginning to fret.

TYPICAL PROPERTIES:

Coldpave PB is a combination of bitumen emulsion and fine aggregates offering key properties such as:

· Seals, protects and prolongs the life of bituminous surfaces
· Improves skid resistance qualities
· Greatly enhances general surface appearance
· Designed and manufactured for hand application

 

USES:

Typical application areas are:

· Footways and driveways
· Tennis courts and cycle tracks
· Car parks
· Play areas
· Central reservations
· Pre patching prior to surface dressing
· Sealing of reinstatement patches and trenches

PACKAGING:

Coldpave PB is supplied in Black, Rustic Red or Green colours and is packaged in 25kg plastic sacks in wooden crates/metal caged pallets, or 25kg plastic buckets with handles (on standard wooden pallets).
 
COVERAGE:

Up to 400mē per tonne depending upon the quality of the existing surface being covered. If a thickness of deeper than 1.5mm is required then several thin layers are recommended rather than one thick layer. Each individual layer should be allowed to dry prior to application of subsequent layers. The surface, if absorbent, should be pre-dampened. Avoid excessive working with the brush when spreading in order to avoid aggregate separation.

PREPARATION AND APPLICATION:

Ensure the surface is clean i.e. free from weeds, standing water and oily patches. Sweep surface with yard brush to remove any old chippings etc. Fill any potholes with patching macadam and any narrow cracks with a jointing compound. Coldpave PB is ready to use but after extensive storage may require stirring/kneading before use. Apply with a notched squeegee to obtain initial even coverage. Where more than one coat is required, each individual coat must be allowed to dry before application of subsequent coats. Finish off the application with a dampened soft brush to provide the finished surface texture.

A 2 - 3 man crew can achieve coverage of up to 1000mē per day dependant on conditions.
 

SETTING TIME:

Coldpave PB should be applied between March and September to ensure good drying conditions. Cold, wet and/or humid conditions will delay the setting time. Laid at the normal thickness (1.5mm) Coldpave PB should be able to withstand foot traffic after approximately two hours.

MAINTENANCE OF TOOLS:

All tools can be cleaned with water or, if Coldpave PB has dried, Kerosene or Gas oil may be used.
