Best Tarmac Paint

Tarmac paint is long lasting and provides a great finish for a range of exterior tarmac surfaces including driveways, car parks, playgrounds, roads and tennis courts. Tarmac paint ideally tends to be suited for the protection of exterior areas and surfaces. It’s recommended that tarmac paints and coatings are applied to all of these exterior surfaces, this is due to their durability and long lasting ability. Another reason why tarmac paint is the best is that it offers great colour retention, it flexes with substrates and reduces marks and peeling. When it comes to looking for the ‘best tarmac paint’, look no further than Promain, our extensive product range has got you covered.

How Do You Paint Tarmac?

As with any painting, if you want it to last, preparation is key. Without proper preparation, there is no way to tell how long does tarmac paint lasts.

Firstly, brush your drive with a stiff broom to remove any residual dirt and loose sediment. Promain always recommends the use of a quality fungicidal wash such as Centrecoat GS36 to remove any natural growth from the driveway. Tarmac paint DIY doesn’t need to be something to be scared of!

Then you can get on with applying tarmac paint following the guidelines on the product data-sheet including the drying time. All the information you will need for how to use tarmac paint will be on these sheets. Each product's downloadable PDF’s are available on the paint’s listing on our website. The sheets will have information like how long does tarmac paint takes to dry and more.

Of course, you may require more coats depending on the paint. You will not require a tarmac paint sealer with Promain’s tarmac driveway products.

Are 2 Inches Of Asphalt Enough For A Driveway?

According to the National Asphalt Pavement Association, 2 inches of asphalt isn’t adequate for a stable driveway. Unless you are intending to constantly be on the search for asphalt restorer solutions, we would really recommend laying your driveway properly!

We find that a 4-inch depth of asphalt is adequate, but 5 or 6 inches of asphalt depth is recommended. This depth of laid asphalt will provide you with a stronger more stable driveway. You can also lay 6 to 8 inches of compacted aggregate or gravel, as a base with 3 inches of asphalt pavement on top.

What Is Tarmac Paint Coverage Like?

The coverage rate for Rust-Oleum Tarmacoat is 4 - 8 m2 per litre whereas Coo-Var W449 tarmac paint covers 5 - 9 m2 per litre. This is dependant on the texture of your tarmac and the rate that the paint is applied.

Depending on the product and substrate, the coverage rate per paint will be different.

What Kind Of Paint Do You Use On Asphalt?

Paints for tarmac are usually water-based. Sometimes people get worried that water-based paints are lesser quality than solvent-based alternatives. Although this might have been true in the past, industrial paint technology today is far more advanced. For example, did you know your car has been painted in water-based paint?! Hopefully, you haven’t noticed the paint on your car falling off in the rain!

Water is purely the carrier for the paint. Paint is actually solid once it is dry – the water simply evaporates! You can get water-based acrylic tarmac paint that is incredibly heavy duty. Think line marking a heavy use warehouse heavy duty! You don’t just need to be looking for bitumen paint for tarmac when water-based tarmac paint is far superior.

To turn your tarmac asphalt paint into an anti-slip coating, incorporation of light to medium aggregate will aid against a slippery surface.

What Is The Best Way To Restore Tarmac?

The best way to restore your tarmac is to initially access just how poor your tarmac is. Firstly, Promain recommends the use of a stiff broom to remove any moss or loose sediment. Once you have performed the initial sweep, we recommend the use of a fungicidal wash to remove the risk of any green growth reappearing.

If you are handy with a hand brush or happy doing DIY around the house the question of can I paint tarmac is nothing to worry about. With the correct preparation and tools, you can make a professional job of painting tarmac to give your house kerb appeal to be proud of.

How Long Does It Take For Asphalt Paint To Dry?

Depending on which tarmacadam paint you intend to use, the drying time for the product will be dependant on the paint’s formulation. For example, Rust-Oleum Tarmacoat 6100 is touch dry in 30 minutes at 20°C and fully cured in 48 hours. As always, our technical team recommends customers to fully read datasheets for your product prior to use. All these sheets are available on our website under the individual product listing.

You might have found yourself here if you are asking yourself can you paint tarmac. Yes, you can paint tarmac! Promain provides the best tarmac driveway paint available.

Can You Use Tarmac Paint On Concrete?

Yes, you can use tarmac paint on concrete. However, we do recommend you to thin the first coat to improve adhesion. This will help your tarmac paint for concrete last. The concrete will look more consistent as a driveway material where everything is grey and boring!

How Do You Rejuvenate Tarmac?

The best way to rejuvenate any tired tarmac surface is a full sweep, clean and then a fresh coat of coloured tarmac paint to brighten up your driveway. You can always speak to one of our team about the worry of lost resins, how many coats may be required and of course should you use a tarmac sealer at the end of your project.

Can You Paint Tarmac Drives?

Yes, you can paint a driveway or car park. Although if you are still apprehensive, please contact our technical team on 01462 421333.

How Long Does Tarmac Paint Last?

Asking how long does tarmac driveway paint last is a bit like asking how long is a bit of string. There are many factors involved such as the intended use of the tarmac driveway. If you do not intend on parking a car on the drive and it will only be susceptible to foot traffic, the UV fade will be more uniform than if you always park your car in the same place. After a time, you might notice that the spot where your park tends to sit is darker than the surrounding area. Then you might be more inclined to restore your black tarmac drive sooner.

Our driveway paints are formulated for exterior use so have a degree of UV stability designed for the UK market.

FAQ’s

Is Tarmac Paint Any Good?

 Promain only supplies quality industrial tarmac paint. We aren’t interested in supplying inferior cheap tarmac paint or tarmac repair to customers. If we did that our customers would be disappointed and our reputation would be at risk. The question of is tarmac paint any good depends on where you are buying from at the brand of the product.

How Do You Remove Paint From Asphalt?

If you are wondering how to remove paint from tarmac, look no further. If you know which paint was used on the substrate, it makes it even easier to remove. The most efficient way to remove paint from asphalt or tarmac would be professional sandblasting or high water jetting. However, this is quite aggressive. It may be more cost-effective to just paint over the paint you are unhappy with. To do this though the paint must be compatible with the coating underneath. This happens quite a lot in the line-marking industry. When lines or painted logo designs are incorrectly placed, black tarmac paint is applied over the design to disguise it.

What Do You Use To Paint Asphalt?

Depending on the Tarmac Restorer Paint you are looking to apply, you may be applying the paint by Brush Roller, with fiddly areas applied by brush. The best tarmac paint roller if you are asking what can you paint tarmac with is a medium pile roller.

Yes you can, however due to the nature of asphalt and as it is quite oily, we advise that you ensure the surface has been properly cleaned before starting the paint application. Asphalt can look bare and dull if it hasn’t been painted, before painting it will need to be extensively cleaned beforehand, you can do this by using a hard-bristled brush and a power washer. At Promain, we stock a range of asphalt paints including acrylic paint, coal tar paint, oil based paints and water based latex paints. These types of polymer-based, water soluble paint can help to prevent your lines from lifting off the asphalt once they have been painted.
