Resists Fuel Penetration
Resists gas, oil, salt and chemical penetration.
Asphalt is a petroleum derivative, soluble in
distillates such as gas, jet fuel and oil drippings.
STAR-SEAL® prevents damage from distillates
and chemicals.

Prevents Water Penetration
The intrusion of moisture into asphalt pavement
structure accelerates its deterioration and is
strongly related to pavement distress. The
sealing of well-cured asphalt with STAR-SEAL®
prevents the seepage of moisture from snow and
rain, thus preventing damage from freeze-thaw
cycles.

Stops Oxidation
Actinic rays in sunlight can oxidize the asphalt
oils in pavement, causing brittleness and a
resulting loss of aggregates that may rob up to
50% of the original asphalt thickness in just five
years. A pavement sealcoated with
STAR-SEAL® will resist oxidative degradation
and retain its value.
