Asphalt
materials represent a significant investment. We believe
that they should be protected whenever possible by the
application of Phaltceel.
Phaltceel is a highly developed water-based acrylic product.
It has been formulated to penetrate and protect all asphalt
materials from the adverse effects of contamination by petrol,
jet fuel, diesel and oils. Phaltceel will also protect against
premature ageing by exposure to UV light.
The main properties of Phaltceel are:
| • |

Phaltceel can safely be used anywhere
that asphalt may be in danger of contamination by fuels
or accelerated ageing
through exposure to high levels of UV light:
| • |
Airfield taxiways |

Aircraft and helicopter standing
bays |

Preparation and
use has been designed to be as simple as possible. Surface
contamination must be
removed and old asphalt surfaces should be thoroughly washed
and cleaned. The surface for Phaltceel application must
be dry and free from residue.
Phaltceel is supplied in two component parts. Component
A and component B must be gently mixed together in a suitable
container.
Phaltceel is formulated for application by airless spray.
It should be applied to the clean and dry substrate by airless
spray in two thin coats. The recommended rate is 18 sq. metres
per litre for each coat. Care must be taken to ensure that
thin and even coats are applied. A fan nozzle is recommended
on the airless spray or spray bar apertures.
The second coat is applied when the first coat is thoroughly
dry and tack free, typically 45 to 60 minutes. Phaltceel should
not be applied in temperatures of below 5°C or if rain
is predicted within 90 minutes of completion of the application.
Asphalt Associates Ltd also welcomes approaches from companies
for supply of Phaltceel in geographical territories that are
available. Please use the contact page to express your interest.
