Video of a slide presentation with voice over......awesome!

Used to work for a company that processes millings and used waste oil IS how to remulsify, its less than 2 gallons per ton to acheive the desired consistency and heated back up. Yes, if you OVERAPPLY oil to asphalt it effectively "waters down" the binder allowing it to pull out of the mixture, but using waste oil to help rebind millings can and does have legitimate use as a method to rebind a milling drive

I liked it. Good presentation of alternative method to build or refurbish driveways and roads.

Hawk Seale has been used for driveways, HOA and Municipal streets, parking lots, air-strips and boat ramps as well as for warehouses & storage sheds, garages, horse-barns and cattle sheds, as well as tennis, basketball and pickleball courts, basically anywhere a smooth hard non-tracking, non-eroding surface is needed. HS can be used for Pot-hole patching with millings or cold patch and will extend the life of patches by 10 years or more.

I have super sandy soil. Would you recommend a crushed stone base before using asphalt milling? Or could I put the milling down right on the sandy soil?

Thanks for the video, but for a long driveway (800’x8’), I just cant pull the trigger for this after the driveway material. Guess I am just stuck maintaining gravel.

Thanks for the info

Great details for small jobs. It’s cost prohibitive as I would need 60 ton of millings then 63 gallons of hawk.

Depending on the cost of millings in your local, Millings treated with Hawk Seale can create a smooth non-tracking and non-eroding hard surface similar to hot mix asphalt for 40 to 60 percent less cost and roughly a third the cost of concrete.

Great Info! Any recommends of companies who can apply this in Michigan?

The acid in HSE will soften rubber components, Agricultural farm sprayers and garden sprayers, will seize up. We recommend water trash pumps as they are less expensive and repairing them is relative simple and seals inexpensive.

Yes, applying approximately .8 tenths of a gallon of Hawk Seale E Blend solution per square yard in three applications and re-compacting the millings will tighten them up. Expect to use about half of the solution in the first pass, then waiting 45 minutes before applying the second pass in an alternate pattern to ensure an even distribution, also you are looking for areas that are drier to apply more solution to. Your 3rd pass again spaced about 30 minutes later is catch the drier areas again and to apply the solution to the point of run off. After application allow the solution 30 to 45 minutes to work it's magic softening the asphalt and then compact them with a heavy roller. If you email the dimensions of your project to us at hawkseale@gmail.com we can provide you quantity and price as well as send a Application and Equipment guide for applying HS-E.

Thank you for your comment. Hawk Seale has been used tor rejuvenate millings for 15 years in 2020. Even after the heaviest roller, millings will still have 8 to 15 % air voids, HSE will fill those air voids, tack down the fines and stop the erosion of millings, which are the two most common complaints. Cost for using millings treated with HSE averages about half the cost of hot asphalt when both are done by professionals. The benefit of HSE is that the property owner can now get a smooth durable asphalt surface whether it is professionally laid or the property owner does his own work. By the way moisture (water) and oxidation are the main causes of asphalt deterioration.

Millings are 100% recyclable yes, but only so much of a percentage can be used at a time. We have mountains of millings at our blacktop plants that we have to screen and crush before only being able to use a small percentage back in our mix. We do our own milling and hauling because we are a large company and we give millings away by the triaxle many times, especially if it doesn't need to be weighed by the state as they pay us per ton for disposal. Talk to people who work for asphalt companies in your area and you might be surprised at what you get lol

how about after laying millings you hot tar it then spread some millings on top then compact it down?? im going to try that one day soon as i have to raise my shops driveway because of small flooding lol... i bet that will bond real good and cheap in price for time to save some coin to do it the right way?? no?

@kermitmiller6491

What you are proposing would be similalr to chip and seal. The hot tar will lay on top of the millings and only a thin layer of the new top layer of millings will bond with the hot tar. It most likely won't solve the tracking of fines nor will it provide a deeper durable surface that won"t break through with heavier vehicles or aggressive tires, which will lead to more raveling etc. Hawk Seal is designed to penetrate the top inch or so of compacted millings to re-bond millings into a smooth durable surface that reduces oxidation and prevents moisture from entering the millings. Incorporating Hawk Seale into the top 2 to 3 inches of the millings will provide a deeper more durable mat that resists moisture, and reduces tracking and erosion problems and stands up to heavy traffic better.

One of the advantages of treating the millings with HSE solution is that it softens the asphalt in the millings which aids in compaction, then the co-polymers bind them back together in a "cold process". A 5,000 pound roller is sufficient. In close quarters or small projects a plate compacter can be used.

Under the category of 'things to avoid'. On warm days, or any days really, avoid your vehicle sitting in one place while turning the steering wheel. It's a sure fire way to tear up the surface - . That goes for any asphalt you're on too. People ruin parking lots by doing that on warm days - pisses me off. Only turn the wheel while the vehicle is moving!!! And don't use those damn studded tires on any roads!!! If it's not icy, and you're on studs, I'm coming to get you.😡 Chains are even worse. I've seen chains ruin good asphalt freeways in a matter of days, costing millions to repair. Frankly, if it's snowing or icy, stay home.

There's just no way this is better than gravel. Doing a gravel road way is easier than this. The maintenance on this is very difficult time-consuming and expensive. Stick with gravel and learn how to maintain it. Can't go wrong. Don't have to deal with all the hassles and problems that you have with asphalt.

DGA or Commercial Base is generally a dollar or two less per ton and do not show any superior benefit to milling and allow grass seeds to grow when blown on to the driveway/road. If done correctly this should be a far superior alternative to rock driveways and at about a quarter of the cost of an asphalt/paved driveway.
