I apply the cold with a 3" brush....after 3 years on driveways.. works the best...and finishes nice...just my 0.02

I applied cold pour to a crack to fill it (used filler and sealer) that I bought at Home Depot. Can I now hire people to pour hot patch over the cold pour? Or should it be scraped off first?.. Thank you!

[kevinoetiker]

For small homeowners that want a lasting solution and easy application, would you recommend self-levelling Polyurethane sealants as alternative?

[eldonburks]

Is their a difference on the hot rubber or is it all the same. My driveway was done a week ago and doesn't seem to be drying as good as two years ago?

[gnawrot]

A cold pour does not last long. I tried them all and obtained unsatisfactory results after a winter in NY. It was fine until the winter. I will try hot pour now. I think that this is the only viable option in the NorthEast or Canada. I have seen parking lots in front of grocery stores done with hot pour and this stuff works.

[justinandtrevor]

would it help to saw cut on both sides of crack to help bond patch ?

[danielfostel]

In general does the cold pour hold up as well as the hot? driveway, so light traffic. Or is it worth figuring out small scale hot pour options for a homeowner.

Can you do a hot pour to fill cracks on a sloped driveway?

[jdisdetermined]

What do you pro guys think about Pli-Stix, that torch meltable crack filling material that comes in rolls of various sizes available at local home stores? Is it worth the extra time and labor versus just a pour in cold filler type product?

[taifalamar]

The machine is good, although the support chains in the back holding the propane tank broke off after 48 hours of operation. The bracket itself holding the tank needs to be redesigned maybe reinforced...other than that machine works well.

I cut sawed two straight lines in my driveway thinking I was going to rip it up, install drainage pipes and pay someone to fill it back up. Now, I think I’ve changed my mind - how should I fill those 2 saw lines that span my driveway? Cold pour good enough?

[customcore]

I apply hot pour on a slab, problem is that the asphalt peeled off, it won't stick on slab roof. Is it OK to apply primer then pour the melted asphalt.?

[MattSmmons]

On the hot pour, how badly will it bleed through and leave that visible line after sealing? I see in a lot of parking lots the hot pour lines, is that just from the filling the cracks and not sealing it?

[jonnyg]

Can I use a heat gun on cold poured asphalt to speed up process. Such as the bag of cold asphalt

[dannywillis]

Can I put sand in a North star sealing.machines like

[stevenbennett]

why isn't my cold pour crack filler not hardening ?

[samgarofalo]

I can get straight tar from the asphalt plant, can I use it straight or should I mix some Rubberized filler in with it.
Either way I will most likely sprinkle some sand over the top while it cures.
