At Seal King many of our customers ask us what our secret is that allows our sealcoating products to last much longer than our competitors. While we may not be able to “reveal” our entire process for fear that others may mimic it, we can let you in on a little secret that has been one of the keys to our success over the years. At Seal King we use a high quality Asphalt emulsion sealer that allows our sealcoating products to last much longer than products used by other asphalt sealcoating contractors.
Many years ago contractors had 2 choices when it came to a sealer product for asphalt. They could choose to use a coal tar based sealer that was an extremely high-end coating or an inferior coating made from pre-emulsified asphalt. The disadvantage of the coal based emulsion sealer was the sheer expense and finally this option was no longer available because it was simply too expensive for consumers. What were consumers to do that wanted a high quality sealcoating product?
To fill the void left by the coal based sealers, STAR’s Micro-Pave line was launched. This line of asphalt-based sealcoating products used different ways of formulating and processing asphalt sealers that were never used before. Due to its unique formulation the Micro-Pave line is able to rival coal tar sealers in many performance aspects including longevity, fuel resistance, color retention, etc. While the Micro-Pave line of asphalt sealers is more expensive than other asphalt sealers, its performance is well worth the added cost.
While you may be able to save money by using inferior sealcoating offerings, you’ll likely pay more in the long run. Many competitors may claim to offer rock bottom prices on sealcoating services. The problem with these services is that they are using inferior products, which will simply not stand up over time. At Seal King we long ago decided that we would rather pay a bit more for materials like STAR’s Micro-Pave line to ensure our customers received a product that met our seal of approval.
