- Asphalt driveways needing maximum warranty length
- Fast one hour foot traffic turnaround
- Restoring the look of old worn blacktop
A rubberized, sand-filled blacktop sealer whose headline features are a 10-year warranty and fast ClimaSeal drying. It renews tired asphalt quickly, but the quick-dry claims assume near-perfect weather and the sand demands diligent mixing.
Pros
- Class-leading 10-year warranty, the longest of the mainstream DIY asphalt sealers
- ClimaSeal fast-dry chemistry can be walked on in about an hour in warm, dry conditions
- Sand particles in the body help fill small surface cracks and add slip resistance
Cons
- Asphalt only - offers no protection for concrete driveways
- The advertised one-hour dry time only holds in ideal heat and low humidity; real-world cure is often much longer
- Sand content settles, so thorough stirring is essential or coverage and texture come out inconsistent
