Frequently Asked Questions
How do I apply this cold lay asphalt? Use the Clean / Fill / Compact method: clear loose debris, pour directly from the bag, then compact firmly using a tamper or flat heavy object.
What coverage can I expect from one 25kg bag? Allow approximately 0.4m² per bag when compacted to a depth of 30mm. Coverage will vary with depth and the condition of the repair area.
Can the bags be stored outdoors? Yes. It is supplied in a weather-resistant plastic bag and can be stored outdoors in the original packaging. Protect from extreme temperatures.
Are there any important limitations I should know? Yes. For repairs deeper than 30mm, apply and compact the material in layers. Avoid point loads (such as motorcycle jacks, caravan legs or similar) immediately after installation as settlement may occur. Apply within the recommended temperature range of 5°C to 30°C.

| Limitations | Not suitable for heavily trafficked areas or high-stress zones such as turning areas |
- Use a rake or spade to spread the Drive Repair Asphalt to the required thickness, remembering to be slightly proud of the hole to allow for compaction
- Use a flat heavy object for ‘tamping’ such as a tamper or mechanical plate compactor
- Wet the tamper frequently to stop the Drive Repair Asphalt sticking to the tool and ‘picking up’
- NOTE: When repairing deep potholes (greater than 30mm) lay the Drive Repair Asphalt in two stages. Ensuring the first layer is fully compacted before spreading the next layer and
compacting to the required finished surface level
- Not suitable for heavily trafficked areas, or areas exposed to high stress such as turning
- Protect the newly laid surface from caravan legs, motorbike kickstands and other similar high-loadings
- Do not place heavy and sharp objects on the newly laid surface
- Protect the newly laid surface from vehicle tyres and power steering action
- Timber sheets can spread loading of vehicle tyres but will also reduce oxidation which is required for the product to harden. Therefore do not leave permanently covered as this will extend the time taken to fully harden
- Drive Repair Asphalt should be placed within the temperature range of 5°C to 30°C
- The workability of the Drive Repair Asphalt will improve if the outside temperature is above 10°C
- The material may be prone to marking and deformation during early life and warm conditions
- The time taken to fully harden will depend on the degree of compaction and ambient conditions
- Surface finish can be improved by further tamping
- After prolonged storage or in cold conditions, it may be necessary to expose the bag of the Drive
- Repair Asphalt to direct sunlight for 1-2 hours prior to opening to loosen the material and restore workability
