rejuvenating tarmac drive

Post by axelrod »

my tarmac drive (which was originally black) is looking dirty and dull.
i have tried different solutions on it to try and get it looking black again but without any success.
is there anything on the market which would do the job ???.

Black Paint? (Maybe blue if you wanted something different)

re: tarmac drives

since my original post i have used "wickes drive seal" fantastic stuff.
£10.45 5 ltr can. will cover both tarmac and concrete (in black) o-k to walk on in 4 hours. i tried both lambs wool and foam 9" rollers i found lambs wool the best. one can should cover 15 sq mtrs 2 coats, but this depends on how smooth the surface is that you are covering. i hope this information is of some help.
