  1. Details about Sealcoating and Parking lot

  2. Sealcoat Sealcoating is an essential part of parking lot upkeep. Sealcoating your parking lot's asphalt has a number of advantages that will help it stay in good shape. Sealcoating offers a protective layer for asphalt that extends its life, reduces water runoff damage, seals fissures that allow water to permeate the asphalt, and reduces damage caused by autos, among other benefits. Sealcoat is best used in the late spring and summer months since it protects the wood from the elements.

  3. Because of the warmer temperature and additional sunlight, the sealer will cure faster. • Temperature permits the sealant to dry overnight, ensuring that it is ready when the automobiles arrive in the morning. • Because of the heat, it's easier to seal your parking lot in the summer.

  4. Parking Garage Striping late at night or early in the morning is a risky business. During the day, parking lots are typically striped. Pedestrian and vehicular traffic are prohibited in the parking lots until the paint has dried. The painted lines normally dry more faster during the day than they do at night or early in the morning. Some parking lots, however, simply cannot afford to be closed during the day. There's no reason why you can't stripe at any time if you can completely eliminate all pedestrian and vehicular activity in a certain region. However, keep in mind that no matter how little paint you use, it will dry much slower than paint applied later in the day.

  5. Sunlight vs. Shade vs. Wind • The pavement is hot. • Temperature • Humidity Relative • Asphalt Moisture (Moisture in the Asphalt)

  6. What to consider You won't have the benefit of the sun to warm the pavement in the early morning or late at night. The heat held in the asphalt aids in the drying of the paint, and the warm daytime temperatures help accelerate the process. These are some of the factors that help your paint dry quickly and avoid costly mistakes. Humidity, shadow, and chilly air temperatures are the most common causes of paint not drying. So, keep an eye out for them!

  7. When there is a risk of drying, specific products that reduce the drying period of parking lot paint might be utilized. Depending on the weather and the product used, the interval between application and the point at which it will not produce "tracking" could be as little as 15 minutes or as long as several days. Recommendation is to use the finest product for your specific situation in order to achieve the greatest results for your parking lot striping. Even with the best product, the weather may not always cooperate in allowing for a short drying period. We make it a point to pay close attention to detail at all times.
