how to reseal a driveway
Step 1: Do a Once-over, then Sweep and Clean
Check the driveway surface for cracks. Remove dirt and debris from larger cracks with your 5-in-1 tool. Then fill them with a driveway patch (available at your local hardware store). Make sure to fill the cracks completely and then smooth them over with the trowel.
Give the driveway a good sweeping and scrape off any gunk that might be embedded in the asphalt. Hose off the driveway to get the surface as clean as possible.
Step 2: Dress for Mess
Put on some old clothes. Cover your shoes with plastic bags to protect them from splatter.
Step 3: Whip up Sealer, then Spread
Stir the driveway sealer for 15 minutes or until it is an even consistency.
Pour sealer in a line down the center of the driveway. You want to spread the layer of sealant as thinly as possible to cover the entire surface. Use a squeegee to pull the sealer from the center to each side. Continue until the driveway is completely covered.
Step 4: Let Dry
It takes a few hours to dry and overnight to cure so avoid walking on it and certainly don't park on it until it is fully cured.http://www.diynetwork.com/how-to/how-to-repair-and-reseal-the-driveway/index.html
