ADFORSPeel & Seal Driveway Patch for Long Lasting Pothole Repair

I have a large oil damaged spot in my parking lot. As with anything else, preparation is everything. After cleaning, filling and sealing the affected area the patch was applied. All is well and the leaking oil will now stay on top of the patch.

I bought and installed this a month ago to patch over some asphalt cold patch in a lane that gets a fair amount of traffic. It’s held up well for the month so far, of course it’s been dry and warm. I am hoping that it keeps that pothole filled for a year or two at least, I also bought some to put over some crocodile cracks in a parking lot hoping that that will stop that from Worsening and keep that parking lot in good shape. The material looks great when you put it down it looks like a standard asphalt patch if something goes weird I will update my report but so far so good.

We have a long asphalt driveway that is over 20 years old. It's still in pretty good shape, but there are areas where asphalt has washed out over the years. I have tried filling them with asphalt patch and it works for a while, but ultimately washes out over time.For this round of driveway repair, I'm trying this ADFORS peel and seal driveway patch as a protective layer on top of my usual asphalt repair. I first used blacktop patch repair that I purchased at a local home improvement store, filling and leveling asphalt depressions and wash outs. I let this patch repair work dry for one week and then followed up with the ADFORS patches (see picture with review showing before and after ADFORS application).Installation is easy. The most time-consuming part is cutting the patch material. I used a pair of shears I had on hand (aluminum shears I think) and at first it was relatively easy to cut the patch material. However, the shears gummed up with the sticky asphalt material as I went along and had to stop and clean the shear with naphtha (lighter fluid). After cutting and placement, I tamped down the patches and then, as suggested in the instructions, drove over the patches a few times. They seem to be firmly in place now.Hopefully, the ADFORS patches will help keep the water out and the asphalt repair in place. Time will tell... review will get updated if any issues arise.

This is an excellent patch product. It’s surprisingly easy to use and seems to be remarkably durable. I used this patch for a nasty pothole that kept forming in the private road directly behind my house. I have patched this hole multiple times with other products and the fix always lasts about 3-6 months and then the hole slowly starts to form again. Before long you are back to square one with it. This time I filled in the hole and patched over the top of it using this product. That was last September and thus far it’s holding well. I am super happy with this product.

I fail to see the point in this patch material. The instructions state to fill a patch with proper patch material, then apply this membrane. So I have to fill the patch with something that is already designed that purpose, then put a piece of tape over it just to ensure it stays in place? Well, that doesn't work for me. I filled a driveway pothole with some gravel that I had because I wasn't going to buy another product to solve a problem that I expected this to take care of. The adhesion is great and is holding up, but it looks like a thick taped patch, like elbow patches on a camelhair suit. I think this is better suited for a temporary repair than a permanent solution.
