What is Slurry Seal? Slurry Seal is a cold-mix paving system that can remedy a broad range of problems on streets, airfields, parking lots and driveways. Think of Slurry as an Industrial Grade asphalt surfacing. The principal materials used to create slurry seal are aggregate, asphalt emulsion and fillers, which are mixed together according to a laboratory's design mix formula. Water is also added for workability. Advantages of Slurry Seal As the most versatile of any pavement surface treatment system, slurry seal is also unique in its ability to deposit a durable bituminous mixture in accordance with the demands of a variably textured surface - filling cracks and voids, sealing the surface weather-tight, and providing color and texture delineation in a single pass. Low Cost Economical to install, highly cost effective to use. Rapid Usability Easy, swift application of a new overlay makes slurry especially attractive for rehabilitating busy thoroughfares, parking lots and airport runways. The new surface is ready to use in just hours after application. Correcting & Preventing Problems Existing distresses in older pavements - surface cracking, raveling, loss of matrix, increased water and air permeability and lack of friction due to flushing or aggregate polishing - can be corrected through a slurry application. Waterproofing is also achieved, preventing further deterioration. An all-weather, long lasting surface is created that offers skid resistance and improved handling characteristics for drivers. Aesthetic Value With one simple application, existing pavement receives a new wearing surface of uniform black color and texture. Enhanced appearance means increased property value, marketing potential and buyer acceptance. Thoroughfares, shopping center parking lots and other public or commercial pavements treated with slurry seal become more attractive and eye-appealing.
