Top Tuff Sealer Additive
Improve Pavement Sealer Performance with Top Tuff
Top Tuff is a water-based latex emulsion additive designed to enhance the toughness and durability of pavement sealers. It improves the suspension of sand, ensures better sand anchoring for extended wear and helps reduce power steering marks.Â
Additionally, Top Tuff increases resistance to oils, fuels and grease while creating a darker, richer black finish. These benefits make Top Tuff an excellent choice for contractors seeking to improve both the performance and appearance of their pavement sealing applications.
