What is tarmac?
Short for tarmacadam, tarmac is a durable material that’s made from mixed stone and tar or bitumen. It’s commonly used on roads, driveways and paths as its weather resistant and aesthetically pleasing.
How do you get rid of moss on tarmac?
The best way to get rid of moss on your tarmac is to brush off the top layer before applying a specialist moss killer or diluted bleach solution. Usually, you’re directed to let it sit for a while and then scrub it off if required. Finally, rinse thoroughly to rid of any residue. We also recommend cleaning your tarmac regularly to prevent regrowth.
How long does tarmac take to dry?
This can depend on the brand, weather conditions and other various factors but typically, tarmac dries within 24 hours. Vehicles can make light use of it from 2-3 days, but it isn’t technically fully cured until 28 days have passed.
