I'm finally an adult. I want to seal my driveway this summer. My dad used to
do it every few years when I was growing up.
I digress. I don't think this driveway has ever been sealed. The drive is
15yo. When we moved in 4 years ago, there was a lot of loose gravels on
it. Last year, I swept it up and threw out as much of it as I could. It's not
the smoothest surface but there aren't any big cracks or divots.
My questions: Any reason not to do this? I realize I'm not going to get a
super smooth surface with my existing drive, but it will look much nicer.
Also, most instructions say to put 2 coats. How do you do this? Do you
start to recoat as soon as you finish? Can you walk on it so soon? Or do I
wait the 2 days and then coat again? Drive will be out of service for 4 days??
Thanks,
Paul
