The key: Restoration of a Waterproof Surface

BRP Road Patch

100mm

Defect or Trench

Hidden structural damage

Restore the pavement defect as normal and then overlay the repair with a BRP Road Patch extending past repair edges by 100mm to seal hidden structural damage and provide a truly waterproof surface

Does it cause a Bump?

Yes No

A bump (rumble strip, speed hump) can be created by applying larger Aggregate Patches to the surface.

Match the surface aggregate and the patch will integrate with the surface matrix becoming unnoticeable to road users

5 Step Application Procedure

Step 1 - Prep

Ensure surface is 10 degrees Celsius and rising. Sweep area free of loose material. Mark out the area to be sealed (defect area plus 100mm in all directions) Cut the BRP Road Patch to the required size / shape.

5 Step Application Procedure

Step 2 - Adhesion Step 3 - Position

Evenly apply cationic 60% (or similar) emulsion to the road surface and the back of the BRP Road Patch. Apply as if painting, no puddles and no dry areas.

When the emulsion turns black and is very sticky place BRP Road Patch over the prepared area.

5 Step Application Procedure

Step 4 - Seal Step 5 - Roll

Sand seal the edges and joints with a small quantity of emulsion and sand.

Roll with rubber tyred vehicle, (no steel) In high stress turning or breaking areas, cold or if rain is imminent additional rolling is recommended.
