The key: Restoration of a Waterproof Surface
BRP Road Patch
Defect or TrenchHidden
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
100mm
Does it cause a Bump?
NoYes
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
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.
Step 1 - Prep
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.
Step 2 - Adhesion
