Gilsonite pavemant sealer

Sealcoating or pavement sealer is liquid coating mixture that is applied to asphalt based pavement. Sealcoat or pavement sealer is a protective coating for asphalt-based pavements. Gilsonite sealer is much like paint used to protect wood from the environment. Since asphalt pavements are porous, a sealcoat or pavement sealer is utilized in order to shed water and other chemicals from the deterioration of the asphalt pavement. This is especially important in those areas that are subject to a freeze/thaw cycle.
