8. Within the first three days of application or as otherwise determined by County, a seal coat product representative shall visit the first project site to observe and verify proper application procedure. As determined by County, this verification may also include requiring the representative to perform a solids test and provide test results in order to verify the installed product is in accordance with the manufacturer’s specifications.

9. Contractor shall allow Seal Coat to dry a minimum of 24 hours before traffic is permitted; if

air temperature is below 75 degrees drying time may need to be extended.

4. Seal Coat shall be mixed with water to obtain a desired consistency for the application area as determined by the Contractor and County. Gold Coat #310 manufacturer publishes that the maximum dilution for the product is 20% water to 80%; Gold Coat #310 and as pavement increases in roughness, the amount of dilution should be decreased. Contractor shall take due care for each application area to ensure product is not over-diluted with water.

5. Contractor shall not apply Gold Coat #310 Seal Coat when the ambient temperature is below Seventy (70) degrees. If ambient temperatures exceed ninety-five (95) degrees, Contractor shall take extra care in preparing the surface by misting pavement surface with fog system prior to application in accordance with manufacturer’s recommendations. Contractor shall not apply Seal Coat if wet or freezing weather is expected within twenty four (24) hours following application. On Hot days pavement should be misted with a fog system prior to application.

6. Seal Coat application rate shall be 15-30 gallons per 1,000 square feet. Depending on texture of pavement.




7. First Coat - Prior to applying the first coat, Contractor shall mist the surface with water.

Contractor shall then apply Seal Coat using a truck mounted tank, wheeled container, or can. Contractor shall spread the product in continuous parallel lines by means of spray application, rubber-faced squeegees or by broom. Contractor may complete this process by hand or by machine. Contractor tools shall be misted wet before use to avoid product adhesion. After material has been applied to the surface, Contractor shall spread the application by pulling the material toward the operator in a manner that will eliminate all ridges and air pockets.

8. Second Coat - After the first coat has completely dried, Contractor shall re-mist the surface with water, check to see that the surface is clean and free of all debris, and apply the second coat using the same application process as the first coat.

9. Contractor shall allow Seal Coat to dry a minimum of 24 hours before traffic is permitted; if air temperature is below 75 degrees drying time may need to be extended.
