Liquid Road Ultra Pavement Sealer for Roads Tech Data

Liquid Road Ultra for Application on Roads

Factory Blended with Aggregate

Product Description
LIQUID ROAD ULTRA PAVEMENT SEALER FOR ROADS is a polymer-modified, fiber reinforced asphalt emulsion coating that contains specifically graded aggregate and is applied to bituminous pavement surfaces. Liquid Road Ultra is a ready to apply material that is factory blended with aggregate. Liquid Road Ultra is a highly durable, slip-resistant surface treatment that greatly extends pavement service life. Liquid Road Ultra Pavement Sealer meets ASTM D8099/D8099M-17 Standard Specification for Asphalt Emulsion Pavement Sealer.

Recommended Uses
Liquid Road Ultra is ideal for protecting and beautifying all types of pavement surfaces including Roads, Streets, Parking Lots, Shopping Malls, Driveways, Roadways and more. This particular specification pertains to Liquid Road Ultra application on Roads and Streets. (For application on parking lots, see SMT-155)

Estimating Material Requirements

One gallon of Liquid Road Ultra for application on Roads and Streets will cover approximately 30-40 square feet per coat (3.3 – 4.4 square yards per coat). Multi-coat application is recommended for optimum durability (See APPLICATION PROCEDURES below).

Application Rate

Apply Liquid Road Ultra for applications on Roads and Streets at a rate of 30-40 square feet per gallon per coat (3.3 – 4.4 square yards per gallon per coat). Application rates may vary due to pavement porosity and method of application.

Surface Preparations
Surface must be clean and free from loose material and dirt. Cracks should be filled with SealMaster Cold or Hot-Applied Crack Filling Materials. Oil stains should be cleaned and primed with SealMaster Oil Spot Primer.

Application Equipment
Liquid Road Ultra for Roads shall be applied by mechanical squeegee and or brush equipment. Equipment shall have continuous agitation or mixing capabilities to maintain homogeneous consistency of mixed material throughout the application process. Truck mount or self-propelled squeegee/brush equipment shall have at least 2 squeegee or brush devices (one behind the other) to assure adequate distribution and penetration of Liquid Road Ultra into bituminous pavement. Hand squeegees and brushes shall be acceptable in areas where practicality prohibits the use of mechanized equipment.

Mixing Procedures
Mix Liquid Road Ultra thoroughly before applying. If needed, a small amount of water may be added to facilitate application.

Application Procedures
To achieve optimum performance and the desired results for Liquid Road Ultra, it is important to follow proper application procedures. The following two coat process is recommended for optimum performance and durability:
1. Apply, by squeegee application, the first coat of Liquid Road Ultra at a rate of 30-40 square feet (3.3-4.4 square yards) per gallon. Allow first coat to dry thoroughly before applying the second coat.
2. Apply, by squeegee application, the second coat of Liquid Road Ultra at a rate of 30-40 square feet (3.3-4.4 square yards) per gallon. Allow second coat to dry thoroughly before opening to traffic.

Application Weather Conditions

Liquid Road Ultra shall not be applied when temperature is expected to drop below 50° F during application and for a period of at least 24 hours after application. Do not apply if rain is imminent or forecast within 12 hours.

Line Striping and Traffic Markings
Use SealMaster Traffic Paints for line striping and traffic markings.

Packaging and Availability
Liquid Road Ultra is available for plant pick up or bulk tanker load quantities. Liquid Road Ultra is supported by a national network of SealMaster manufacturing and distribution facilities along with a national network of qualified applicators.
