Petromat fabric is installed when doing an asphalt overlay.
The fabric helps to extend the life of the overlay by creating a moisture barrier between the new and existing surfaces. Petromat looks like a thin black carpet made of non woven polypropylene material. Installation starts with power blowing the surface, applying hot SS-1h emulsion oil which helps bonding petromat and new asphalt to the surface, petromat fabric, then applying the new asphalt overlay.
Petromat overlays extend the life of an asphalt overlay, assuring enhanced adhesion and durability of top asphalt surface.
