![]() "Jay Chan" wrote in message ... I want to know if I can use urethane polymer (such as FloMix) to repair cracks in an asphalt driveway that is not on a level group. I have many cracks at the bottom of an asphalt driveway where the driveway meets the roadway. I have tried using those crack filling material in a bottle or in a tube. None works well. I put them in early fall, and then I would see cracks re-developing in the following year. I need a better material to fix the cracks. I see that there is a different product called urethane polymer that is supposed to last very long and is pourable. This is good. But when I watch the instruction video on that product in YouTube, I find that the product seems to be very watery -- like leveling compound. I am wondering how I can use it on a surface that is not very level -- like where my driveway meets the roadway -- I think there is a 20- degree slope on that part of the driveway. Is it going to flow away from my driveway into the roadway? According to the manufacturer FAQ, the material is too flowable and won't hold shape for building up a speed bump. But they didn't mention anything about not being able to be poured onto a ramp. I would like to know if other people may have used this product and what their experience are regarding applying it in a ramp. Thanks in advance for any information. Jay Chan With no experience with this product, Jay, I'll give my 'expert' opinion! It's probably runny so that it can permeate to the bottom of the cracks rather than bridge them. As for application, I would us the traditional squeegee and quickly move small amounts around rather than the pour-and-pray method. You will probably get better economy from a bucket of the filler. Where did you manage to locate this stuff? It sounds like what I need. Chuck |
