Restored,
not painted over.

Almost every blacktop sealer on the market is an asphalt or tar product — a by-product of the oil industry, painted back onto your driveway. We use a blend of natural oils and co-polymers instead, so old grey asphalt gets its colour and its flexibility back rather than a coat of black paint.

Why asphalt goes grey

The sun cooks
the binder out.

Asphalt is aggregate held together by a flexible binder, and the desert sun spends every summer drying that binder out. As it goes, the surface fades from black to grey, turns brittle, and starts shedding gravel; cracks follow, water gets in, and the freeze–thaw cycle finishes the argument. A dried-out driveway does not need painting — it needs its flexibility back.

That is the difference between conditioning and coating. A tar emulsion lays a black film over the top; it looks new for a season, then wears through in the tyre tracks. A conditioner soaks in and feeds the binder itself, which is why the colour that comes back is the asphalt's own.

What goes on it

Bio Blacktop,
sprayed and rolled.

What each Deco product does →
  • Natural oils and co-polymers — contains no asphalt and no tar
  • Conditions old, dried-out asphalt rather than coating it
  • Chemical and UV resistant
  • Dries fast, and cleans up with soap and water

It gets sprayed and back-rolled, never squeegeed — a squeegee pulls too much material to the surface and you end up with a driveway that looks painted, which is the exact thing this product exists to avoid.

Asphalt sealing questions

The blacktop
questions.

Will it look wet-black like a tar coat?

It brings back the asphalt's own colour — a rich dark surface rather than a painted-on gloss. If a driveway looks lacquered, that is a film sitting on top, and films on asphalt wear through exactly where you drive.

My asphalt is cracked. Seal or repair first?

Repair first, same rule as concrete: nothing goes down over a problem. What is worth repairing versus living with is exactly what the free assessment sorts out.

How long before I can drive on it?

It dries fast — faster than our concrete work — but plan around the day of application and we will give you the exact window when we see the surface.
