Sealing asphalt driveway: adding patch now or later?
 
I need to seal my old asphalt driveway, but there's a few chunks
missing from the edges here and there. I'm aware that I should not
seal any newly patched area for at least a few weeks. Problem is that
the weather is in my favor now (next day or two).

Should I seal the whole driveway now and then patch the missing chunks
at a later date (and then seal those chunks ever later)? Would the
new asphalt chunks stick to a sealed surface?

Advice appreciated.

The patch won't stick as well to the sealer. Put the patch and skip over
them when you seal.
