Instant Pothole Repair Mix
Durapave Emulsis Plus is a cutting-edge product created specifically to address the requirement for quick pothole repair. It is designed using Cold Mix technology and is the best solution for filling potholes.
How To Apply
- The pothole should be cleaned with a stiff wire brush first. Secondly, all loose materials, including dust, should be removed with a soft brush.
- Apply Durapave Emulsis RS1 tack coat for enhancing adhesion.
- Fill the pothole with ready-mix 30 mm above the existing surface and carry out compaction. The periphery of the patch should be compacted first. To prevent initial inward pick-up of the loose mix, continue to wet the hand rammer with water or place empty plastic-lined bags on the loose mix.
- The mix is recommended for patching potholes up to 75 mm (3 inches) deep. For deeper potholes, patching mix should be placed and compacted in 75 mm thick layers.
- If the pothole is deep and extends to WMM or granular base, it is recommended to apply a suitable tack coat or prime coat before placing the patching mix.
- After compaction, the compacted patch should be kept slightly higher than the existing road surface (about 3 to 5 mm) to allow for further compaction by traffic.
- If there are multiple closely spaced patches, use a smaller roller than a hand rammer. If a roller is used, the mix should be placed and spread slightly higher than the existing road surface so that the compacted surface is in alignment with the adjoining road surface after rolling.
- Before opening the traffic, clean sand should be sprinkled on the patch to prevent pick up by traffic.
