Cape Seal is a two-part process consisting of a chip seal followed by a microsurfacing or slurry seal wearing course.
May be used on pavements that are too deteriorated to use a chip seal, microsurfacing, or a slurry seal alone. best for low severity cracking and minor wheel rutting are present, even in heavy traffic areas.it is Ideal in locations where a double surface treatment is needed, but loose stone is unacceptable.
Cape Seal Benefits
- Cracks are sealed, drastically reducing the intrusion of water into the pavement structure.
- With the addition of the top treatment, a slurry seal or microsurfacing, the road ends up with a smooth surface that binds any loose aggregate, reducing stone loss.
- Addressing both preventative maintenance and rehabilitation needs, cape seals combine the benefits of both a microsurfacing/slurry surfacing system and a chip seal, which enables them to provide more protection and durability as compared to that of other preventative measures alone.
