i suppose it depends on if the red tarmac was coated over black tarmac as when you cleaned it you might reveal the black underneath in patches, this happened to me on a tennis court once,

hi pal,
afraid  i wont be seeing it again untill i do it, im not expecting any issues, its old, thin and in poor condition, apart from that it should be fine!!!!

just really seeing if there is anything i need to be aware of due to colour, luckily some of it is well out of the way so will do a test patch and take it from there.
cheers
steve

hi pal,

when you start it you could alway pull your lance away a bit more to wash it. also if it goes back to a black colour you could uses my sealmaster product or repaint it red again.

no mark, he could give them a price to clean, and re paint the driveway in back to red paint.   the same stuff you use but red instead of black!   or just clean it?  if he wants more money give them a price to renew it!  ;)
