Blacktop Seal Coating-Need Pro's Advice?

Question

I need to have my residential blacktop driveway seal coated. A few years ago a friend said to be sure and use asphalt-type seal coat material rather than coal tar material. Looking for your opinions on this. All replies appreciated!

Answer 1

I don't know about that, but when I get a job to seal a driveway, I go to Lowes and get the best seal coating they have.  Did you get this guys opinion as to why he wanted asphalt.  Everybody has an opinion, don't they?

I just did a google search and all the driveway sealers that I found had coal tar material.  wow
