Tarmac is a durable material which is commonly used to construct surfaces such as carparks, driveways or playgrounds. Although tarmac is strong, it will deteriorate over time due to oil or diesel spills, whilst a common alternative of asphalt can be damaged by car tires.

If your tarmac installation is beginning to look a little worn, then tarmac restorer offers multiple benefits including:

  • Rejuvenation of the surface
  • Sealing any cracks
  • Prolong the life of the installation instead of replacing it
  • Enhance the colour of the tarmac
  • Cover up any existing stains or damage

Choosing the right tarmac restorer

Now you understand the advantages of using tarmac restorer and what to expect from an application, it’s time to choose the most appropriate tarmac products to revamp your installation.

The main considerations will be that your tarmac restorer is:

  • Effective
  • Affordable
  • Easy to apply

Why not try the Resimac tarmacadam restorer which is designed to dramatically enhance any old or new asphalt or tarmac installation?

Main features of the Resimac tarmac restorer 

As a one coat product, you’ll find this a convenient product to work with, that quickly gives your tarmac the rejuvenation it needs. It’s eco-friendly too, so you don’t need to worry about pumping more toxins into the environment, or the product’s effect on those around you.

With a coverage speed rate of 60 – 100sqm offered per 20L drum at £140.95 including VAT, you’ll find this to be an affordable way to invigorate your tarmac. The product will go further if the tarmac is in good condition but has lost its colouring; more may be required if you’re using it on a poor-quality surface area.

Application tips for your tarmac restorer

When you choose a tarmac restorer, you’ll want the reassurance of knowing that it’s easy to apply. Resiblock’s Resimac comes with full application instructions that are extremely straightforward.

Preparing the surface begins with thoroughly sweeping the area and removing any debris. The tarmac or asphalt should be jet washed on a low pressure setting to prevent further damage to the material. If algae or moss are present, they should be treated with Resiblock Moss and Algae Remover using the Resiblock Tool Kit for best results, prior to the Resimac application.

Next, make sure you tape off all adjacent areas to the tarmac, which might include flower beds, lawn, sleepers or neighbouring driveways to prevent unwanted coverage. You should only attempt to apply Resimac in temperatures of between 5 to 30 degrees and when no rain is forecast.

When you’re ready to begin, use an extension handled roller kit with a medium pile head. For spots that are difficult to reach, the Resimac can be used on a paintbrush instead.

Are you looking for tips on how to apply pattern imprinted concrete sealer? You’ve come to the right place. Resiblock has developed a range of products to ensure your new PIC driveway installation looks fantastic in the years to come.

PIC is a durable choice of material, that is perfect for handling the British weather – from heavy downpours, hail, snow or sunshine, you can be assured that your surface will look pristine so long as you’ve sealed it with either our gloss or matt solution. Once in place, you’ll also notice that your installation will be weed-free too, saving you hours of manual labour.

So, what is the best way to apply our Patterned Imprint Concrete (PIC Sealer) products?

Check your quantities

Before you begin your application, make sure you have the right volume of your chosen PIC Sealer available. You’ll need to calculate the area you wish to cover and then work out the volume based on a two-coat application. The first coat is expected to be covered at a ratio of 3-5m² per litre, with the second coat applied at around 6-7m².

The right conditions

Checking the weather is essential before you begin, so if rain, frost or extreme heat is forecast, it’s best to save your application for another time. So long as the temperature falls somewhere within a 5 to 30 degree range, then this is ideal for your sealing project. Depending on the area you wish to seal, you’ll need to put aside at least half a day to apply two coats of Pic Sealer to offer maximum protection of your installation. You should wait at least 1-2 hours between coats and make sure you apply them on the same day for best results.

Protecting the area

As you would with interior decorating, make sure you protect the area around your application. Any flower beds, ponds, fences or other adjacent areas should be covered to prevent splashing. It’s important that the solution doesn’t enter the sewer, surface or ground water for environmental reasons.

Protection Icon

The pattern imprinted concrete sealer application process

Resiblock’s Imprinted Concrete Sealer can be applied with a medium pile length roller for your convenience. Make sure you shake the sealer vigorously beforehand and then apply then apply ensuring a pool of material is always in front of the roller head. It’s important to wear the relevant PPE to prevent eye or skin contact with the solution.

Once you’ve completed your second coat, make sure that no one walks on the surface area for a minimum of two hours. Vehicles shouldn’t drive over the sealed installation for a minimum of 24 hours ideally.

Our world leading sealing products

Concrete sealer may be the final stage of your concrete flooring project, but in many ways it’s the most important. Choosing the best concrete sealer for your floor ensures your new installation has long-lasting protection. This preserves your investment and enhances its visual appeal to ensure you get the professional finish which will ‘wow’ your customers.

Note: You don’t need to be a professional to apply concrete floor sealer, but you do need to know a few tricks of the trade to make the most of the application. This is where we can help – with our customer focused mindset and 30 years experience in the trade, we can help you choose and use your concrete sealer effectively.

Concrete Installation – Why is it so popular?

Concrete is a popular type of flooring for both the inside and outside of properties. Whether paving a driveway, garage or a conservatory, concrete is a versatile choice. As well as being used in domestic environments, you’ll also find it commonly used in commercial settings too, where it might be used as the base for warehouses and workshops or stripped-back retail spaces.

It is affordable, durable and can handle excessive weight which is why it’s useful in driveways or carparks, however it can also suffer from wear and tear quickly if not protected with a coat of quality concrete sealer.

Why Use the Best Concrete Sealer?

Concrete sealant acts as a vital barrier that stops external dust, debris or fluids such as oil, paint or grease. These could all otherwise affect the integrity and quality of your concrete installation. Luckily, our products – the very best concrete sealant products on the market today, provide our customers with an incredible abrasion resistant defence suitable for both indoor and outdoor applications.

Resiblock stocks both concrete floor sealer and concrete driveway sealer and the application process is the same for both. You can get started with your concrete sealant by following these essential steps.

1. Concrete Floor Sealer Testing

It’s usually a good idea to test out your concrete sealant application before applying it to a larger surface area. This is optional but will give you a good idea of the finished appearance of your concrete installation with the sealant layer on top. You’ll also notice how porous your concrete is, which will give you a good idea of how much concrete floor sealer you’ll need to apply.

Simply select a small area of concrete to prep, and then follow the application steps to test out the concrete sealer. You’ll notice that the sealant will look opaque before it dries, but the end result will look transparent.

2. Prepping The Area for Concrete Floor Sealer

Your new installation needs to be clean and entirely free from debris before you begin applying your concrete sealant. If any stains have appeared on the surface, wash these thoroughly before commencing. The area will need to be completely dry before you apply a layer of concrete floor sealer or concrete driveway sealer. If you need to, you can rely on a squeegee to remove any excess water. Once dry, sweep or hoover the top of your concrete to pick up any extra dust that has collected. It’s particularly important to get between your pavers to remove any jointing sand that has lodged there.

3. Using Concrete Sealant On Existing Installations

Concrete sealer can breathe fresh life into the appearance of your existing installation. If you’re looking to refresh your concrete, then it’s imperative that you put plenty of effort into the cleaning stages before you begin to seal.

4. Using Concrete Sealer For The Second Time

If you’ve previously used concrete floor sealer, then you’ll need to remove the entire coat before you apply a new coat. It’s important to get rid of all traces of the previous sealant to produce a floor that shines. If the previous coat of concrete sealant is from a different brand, then there might be compatibility issues which is why the removal step is vital here.

5. Choosing The Right Conditions For Your Concrete Driveway Sealer

Once your concrete surface is thoroughly prepared, you can begin to coat the top of your flooring. You might use a brush, roller, spray or squeegee to smooth the concrete sealer across the entire area. The joints of your paving must be saturated with the sealant to provide extra protection and to ensure that the area is coated evenly.

It’s typical for pools to form during this process, but you should make every effort to smooth these out. You may need to use a sponge or roller to remove the excess fluid. Splashes should also be dealt with quickly using a clean, damp cloth.

FAQ’s

When can you apply your concrete sealant?

Existing concrete installations can be sealed just as soon as you have completed the necessary preparation steps. However, you should leave concrete installations for up to 8 weeks before you begin any prep work. This will give it plenty of time to completely dry out.

Resiblock’s combination of concrete floor sealer and concrete driveway sealer is a one-coat product. This makes it a simple and hassle-free solution which our customers love to use in their paving installations. As soon as the sealant is dry, then you can start to use your flooring. If for any reason you prefer to apply a second coat, this will not cause any adverse problems.

So long as you apply the concrete sealant in the right conditions, then it should dry out in as little as 24 hours. Try to apply it when the temperature is between 3 – 30 degrees Celsius and not when it is raining.

A stunning driveway sealer provides an appealing entrance to your home and can even add value to your property. While unsealed block paving can look great, it is susceptible to dirt, debris, weed growth and loss of sand which can all tarnish the appearance of your installation. Resiblock offers a simple, effective and long lasting superior gloss sealer or superior matt sealer for your block paving installation. Here are some tips to help you create the perfect finish.

Testing The Area First

Before you coat your entire driveway, it is usually a good idea to create a test area. This is a great way to discover how the coating will look across the entire surface of your driveway, but is also a fantastic way to refine your sealing skills before you begin.

View our product samples

Prepping Your Driveway

Before applying driveway sealer to either a test area or the entire surface area, you’ll need to carry out some prep work first. To ensure your driveway shines, you must give the paving a thorough clean first. This will help to remove any tyre marks, dirt, stains or spills that may have affected the appearance of your paving until now. The block paving will need to be completely dry before you attempt to apply the driveway sealer; however, it should also be free of any jointing sand that has become loose.

Removing Previous Driveway Sealer

If you’re working on an existing driveway installation and have previously applied any sealant, then you’ll need to remove this entirely before you begin with your new driveway sealer coating. This is particularly important if you previously used a different brand, as there might be compatibility issues that could affect the aesthetic appeal of your installation.

View our world leading sealer remover


Choosing The Right Time To Apply Driveway Sealer

To provide your block paving with a perfect finish, you’ll want to ensure that you apply your driveway sealer at the perfect time. It’s always important to check your local weather forecast before commencing with this type of project. Aim to apply your sealant when the temperature is between 10 to 30 degrees Celsius and avoid any days where there’s a possibility of rainfall.

In the event that it rains during your application of driveway sealer, then check to see if your Resiblock product is a pre-polymer urethane. If so, please contact our customer services team on 01268 273344 who will be able to guide you through what steps to take.

Achieving An Even Coating

Applying your driveway sealer is simple if you use the right tools. A roller, squeegee, brush or spray are all great options to help you evenly spread the sealant across the surface of your block paving installation. Make sure that you allow the sealant to flood into the joints between the paving stones. However, if any pools form, then these should be removed with a squeegee or sponge.

FAQ’s

How long should you wait before walking or driving on your sealed driveway?

After you’ve applied your sealant, you’ll need to leave it to dry out before you’re able to apply pressure to it. So long as you’ve applied your driveway sealer in the optimal temperature and weather conditions, then your paving should be ready for both foot and vehicle traffic in as little as 24 hours.

Our Resiblock driveway sealer is designed to be a one-coat product. This makes it an incredibly simple solution for both trade and DIY projects which is cost-effective too. If you do feel that you’d like to apply a second coat of driveway sealer, then this won’t cause any problems either. The best advice would be to carry out a test of the product on a small section of your driveway before you begin the largescale coating process. This will give you a great idea of what the finished results will look like for your individual block paving driveway.

If you’ve recently installed a brand-new block paving driveway, then we understand you’ll want to protect it as soon as possible with a coat of sealant. However, for best results, it’s advised that you wait around 8 weeks following your installation to allow the paving to completely dry out before you begin your prep work.

If you have any queries about Resiblock’s driveway sealer product, then please don’t hesitate to get in touch with our knowledgeable and friendly customer service team on 01268 273344.

Porcelain paving is a fantastic choice for your next installation. You can expect a durable surface for your garden path or patio, and you can even lay your paving indoors in a garden room or conservatory too. Porcelain paving is constructed from a mix of kaolin, feldspar and quartz, before being baked at high temperatures between 1200 to 1550 degrees Celsius. This produces an appealing finish which is easy to maintain so long as you’re using the right solution.

Resiblock are experts in paving sealer solutions and with extensive knowledge of the market, we recommend using a specialist porcelain paving sealer as the finishing touch to your prized installation. Our top choice is the Resiblock Porcelain and Vitrified Paving Sealer which will cost as little as £0.83 per square meter per year, to provide guaranteed protection.

The sealer comes with a 5-year guarantee following correct installation. Read on to find out more about our outstanding porcelain paving sealer, and why you need to use it for your next project.

Why use porcelain paving sealer?

Without sealing your porcelain paving, there’s a risk of your fresh installation becoming stained or damaged by external conditions. Anything from a spilt drink, oil stains from your garden tools or just general wear and tear can create unsightly patches on your paving. Throw in ice, snow and months of wind or rain, and you’re likely to attract dirt and other types of debris. Algae and moss can frequently form on top of your paving too. But all of this can be avoided when you use a porcelain paving sealer to protect your installation.

How to apply your porcelain paving sealer

To begin, make sure you have enough sealer to cover your area of porcelain paving. Resiblock Porcelain and Vitrified Paving Sealer is available in a 5-litre tin, and you can expect 1 litre to cover 8m2. This is a single coat solution.

Always check the weather before you begin as this will affect your application. Make sure you avoid using your sealer if rain, frost or high temperatures are forecast. Ideally, you should apply your sealer on a clear day between 5 and 30 degrees Celsius.

Before you begin application, make sure your porcelain paving has been thoroughly cleaned and that there’s no debris on the surface. If your paving installation is brand-new, wait a minimum of 6 weeks before sealing. When you’re ready, move the sealer into place using a roller or brush. Be careful not to let the sealer pool too much in a single area. You can always use a squeegee to soak up any excess. Leave it to dry and you can expect to walk on your paving within a few hours.

Whether you’ve recently laid a new driveway, or you’re interested in repairing or maintaining your current installation, driveway sealer should be the final step of your project. This provides a top layer of protection to your driveway, which faces strong weather conditions, foot traffic and of course the weight and movement of vehicles.

Why do you need to use driveway sealer?

If you’re tempted to skip the sealer stage of your project, then think again. Driveway sealer offers multiple benefits including:
• Enhancing the curb appeal of your home – this is particularly important if you’re hoping to sell your property in the future.
• Retain the colour of your driveway paving – for example, strong UV rays can cause fading and discolouration to installations unless the sealer is used as a top layer of protection.
• Prolong the life expectancy of your driveway – a sealed installation will require less maintenance and will last for many more years before it needs to be replaced.
• Cost-saving – when you seal your drive, you won’t need to spend as much on maintenance. From weed growth to moss clearance, your sealer will prevent these frustrating problems from forming and will ultimately save you time and money in the long run.
• Chemical spills – if any oil or fuel leaks from your vehicle, you don’t need to worry about it staining your drive. The sealer will apply a watertight layer that sits on the top of your driveway. Liquids including water and chemicals cannot penetrate through to the material beneath, meaning no unsightly patches in front of your property.

Which is the best type of sealer?

We advise that Resiblock Superior Natural Matt is the best type of sealer for domestic applications. Since its launch in 1993, this has been widely regarded as the industry’s best block paving sealer and is currently the only product in Europe to offer a No Oil Stains guarantee.
Its other benefits include:
• A natural matt finish to enhance the aesthetics of your exterior
• A two-coat application lasting up to 5 years
• Zero weed or ant nest settlement
• No loss of jointing sand from your driveway installation

How to apply your driveway sealer

If Resiblock Superior Natural Matt sounds like just the solution you’re looking for, you’ll be pleased to hear that it’s simple to apply.
Begin by making sure that the conditions are right – the surface temperature should fall between 3 and 30 degrees Celsius, and you should avoid sealing if rain is forecast within the next 12 hours. If you’re sealing a brand-new installation, then wait a minimum of 8 weeks.
Prepare the surface by using a pressure washer to blast out any algae or lichen. In a new installation, a sweep with a stiff broom will be sufficient.
Once ready, you can use a Resi Roller on an extension pole to coat the entire surface area and a RESI-SCUTTLE will prevent constant refills. Slide the sealer across and work into the jointing sand cracks. Try to apply two coats in the same day, at least 3 hours apart. The curing period can take 1-2 days before vehicles should be driven across the surface.
