cleaning red tarmac drieveway
« on: April 04, 2012, 09:53:19 am »
Hi All, I am doing the rear of a property over the next few weeks. Simple flags so easy to clean. They also have a very dirty red tarmac drive which they may want doing afterwards. Customer is worried about "loosing the colour" when cleaned. What do you advise for this drive? The condition looks pretty good, no big cracks or loose areas.
Thanks for any advice, Tom.

If its proper red tarmac then the tar is coloured red at the plant so its the same as any other tarmac. Take one stone out to make sure its not just a coating over black.
