Oil-Based (Cut Back) Sealcoat – Easy to Store & Apply
Jet Black is a Cut Back oil-based asphalt sealer, requiring no mixing and easy winter storage outdoors. Unlike water-based alternatives, this penetrating sealant seeps into asphalt, strengthening the surface while slowing natural oxidation.
Best Application Method: Due to its thicker viscosity, Jet Black is best applied with a sprayer for even coverage. Brushing or squeegeeing is more challenging but can be used for touch-ups or small areas.

Essential Sealcoating Guidelines for Long-Lasting Pavement Protection
Proper sealcoating application is crucial for maximizing asphalt durability and appearance. Follow these key guidelines to ensure the best results:
Preparation Before Sealcoating
- Clean & Dry Surface – Remove all dust, dirt, and debris to allow for proper adhesion.
- Check Temperature Requirements – Each oil-based sealcoat has specific application temperature guidelines outlined in its Technical Data Sheet (TDS).
- Weather Conditions Matter – Avoid sealcoating if rain is in the forecast, as moisture can prevent proper drying and adhesion.
Sealcoat Application & Curing
- Curing Time Varies – Sealant drying time depends on ambient temperature, humidity, and sunlight exposure.
- Restrict Traffic Until Fully Cured – Do not allow vehicles or foot traffic on freshly sealed pavement until completely dry.
Best Practices for Pavement Longevity
- Wait Before Sealing New Asphalt – Freshly paved surfaces should be sealed after 12 months to allow for proper curing and oil evaporation.
- Sealcoating Does Not Repair Major Damage – Address any potholes, large cracks, or alligatoring before applying a sealcoat.
Recommended Asphalt Repair Solutions
- Small Cracks – Use cold-pour crack filler for narrow cracks.
- Large Cracks – Opt for hot-pour rubberized sealant for better flexibility and durability.
- Alligator Cracking – Treat with Gator Patch to restore the surface.
- Potholes – Repair using hot mix asphalt or cold mix patching products before sealcoating.
By following these sealcoating best practices, you can extend the life of your asphalt, enhance its appearance, and prevent costly repairs.
Frequently Asked Questions
What is an oil-based (cutback) driveway sealer?
A solvent-based asphalt sealer that soaks into the pavement instead of sitting on top, slowing oxidation and resisting fuel, salt and tire wear. Jet Black needs no mixing and can be stored outdoors over winter.
How much does a drum or tote cover?
A 205 L drum covers about 762 to 1,143 m² (8,200 to 12,300 sq ft) in a single coat. A 1000 L tote covers about 3,716 to 5,574 m² (40,000 to 60,000 sq ft). Use the asphalt sealer calculator for your area.
What is the best way to apply it?
With a sprayer. It is thicker than an emulsion, so brushing or squeegeeing is harder and best kept for touch-ups and small areas.
What sprayer do I need for oil-based sealer?
A spray system built for oil-based sealers, such as the Marathon oil-based sealcoat sprayer or a SealMaster sprayer. A water-based sprayer is not the right match.
What weather does it need?
Apply it to a clean, dry surface with no rain in the forecast, and check the minimum application temperature on the product's technical data sheet. Keep traffic off until it has fully cured.
Oil-based or water-based sealer: which should I use?
Oil-based soaks in and suits sprayer crews with an oil-based rig. Water-based Jet Black AE is low odour and low VOC and can also be brushed or squeegeed.
Where can I buy oil-based asphalt sealer?
Roadly sells Jet Black in 205 L drums and 1000 L totes and ships across Canada. Out-of-stock items can usually be brought in from the warehouse within 3 days.
