This asphalt coating works on both new and old concrete, including patterned or flat surfaces, as well as new or old asphalt. This coating is perfect for stamped concrete and offers vastly superior durability than typical concrete stains that are prone to wearing off very quickly. It is also far superior to traditional asphalt emulsion coatings that are often smelly, can contain high levels of PAHs, and tend to wear off quickly.
Our product cures in just a few hours, allowing same-day or next-day full service. This is a critical advantage over traditional coatings that can take several days to apply and cure. For commercial areas open to the public, downtime and odor matter—we address those needs while delivering beautiful finishes with best-in-class durability.
Easy to apply with no prior experience needed—it rolls on like paint, but delivers dramatically higher performance and lifespan. LOW VOC with almost zero odor and safe to use in all 50 states, meeting USA environmental requirements. Beautify and protect your asphalt or concrete with designer colors while adding significant life and protection from the elements, including freeze damage from water intrusion. Surface Bond uses nanotechnology bonding agents for strong adhesion and long life. It is UV protected and stands up to rain, snow, hail, salt, chemicals, fuels, and oils. Surface Bond is color-stable, flexible for wide temperature swings, and easily recoatable later with minimal prep (standard cleaning). Works on sloped surfaces and is not a latex product.
Each kit includes Part A in a five-gallon pail (for mixing), a can of Part B activator, and a can of liquid color tint (your choice). Pour all three into the supplied pail to yield 4 mixed gallons, then mix with a mud mixer and apply by roller or spray. Surface Bond has a long working time and a fast cure—ideal for projects where you need speed without sacrificing performance. Standard rollers may be used, or use our Surface Bond textured roller to create additional texture.
Stamped Concrete Done in Tile Red
Coverage is approximately 275 square feet per pail. A minimum of two coats is required. Initial coat coverage will be lower due to surface absorption; subsequent coats cover more because the surface is sealed. Additional coats beyond two increase lifespan and durability—up to five coats can be applied.
We have walkway & bike lane colors in two shades of green made for high-mileage traffic.
Primer is not required for standard, new, or good-condition asphalt, but degraded or older asphalt must use the Surface Bond primer. Primer increases adhesion on asphalt. Primer is not required for concrete but can be used to increase adhesion. Primer coverage is 200–300 square feet per gallon (about 1000–1500 square feet depending on texture/porosity). It goes on blue for easy identification and dries clear. Once dry to the touch (about 60–90 minutes) without leaving a fingerprint, apply Surface Bond.

Please note that these are the base colors and many different additional colors can be made by mixing various base colors together.
Coverage will vary according to type of surface, texture of surface and age of surface. Coverage will average about 275 sf/ 4 gal pail. If using the textured roller figure 225 sf/4 gal pail. Coverage may vary depending on surface texture, condition, porosity and application thickness.
We recommend two coats for pedestrian traffic and light vehicle traffic, three coats for heavy vehicle traffic such as commercial parking areas or public roadways and traffic crossings. Goes on at an average of 9 mils per coat dried film thickness. Up to five coats can be applied!
ArmorGarage Surface Bond is easy and straight forward to install. Surface must be clean and dry. A good leaf blower and stiff bristled broom is normally all that is needed for asphalt surfaces. Vigorously broom surface to loosen dirt to be blown away.
Very dirty or large surfaces can be power washed. If power washing allow sufficient dry time. If there are vehicle fluids in the surface they must be removed. Oil stains can be scrubbed out with Liquid Tide and Muriatic Acid and then thoroughly rinsed, be sure to allow enough time for the surface to dry completely.
Once surface is cleaned and completely dry make sure temperature will be above 50 for a minimum of 4 hrs after you will be done with application. No rain is allowed for 24 hours.
For asphalt surfaces use the Surface Bond Primer unless asphalt is new and stable. Apply Surface Bond after Primer is dry to the touch, about 45 minutes. When coating over concrete, bricks or pavers, primer isn't rquired but recommend to increase adhesion. If coating over stamped concrete use a 1/2"-3/4" Nap Roller.
If coating over concrete, concrete must be 28 days or older and all concrete surfaces must be acid washed at the rate of 1 gallon of muriatic acid mixed with 3 gallons of water for every 300 sf of surface. Wet surface, scrub in diluted acid solution with stiff resin broom or pool brush. Allow to sit for 5-6 minutes and then rinse off thoroughly. We recommend neutralizing with 1lb of TSP powder for every 1000 sf as a final rinse. Allow concrete to dry to the touch.
Application of Surface Bond is the same for asphalt and concrete. Surface Bond is a one component product. Add 1 pint of color per 5 gal unit. Mix with the Surface Bond Metal mixer for 3-4 minutes to ensure color is even distributed. If applying in very hot temperatures you may add a small amount of water to thin and extend working time.
Once thoroughly mixed. Roll on with 3/8" lint free rollers or use the Surface Bond roller for an orange peel type textured finish. This coating can be applied with a flat squeegee, it can be rolled, sprayed and broomed. Depending on the surface. Stamped concrete is best sprayed and broomed or can be squeegeed and broomed. Just maintain the recommended coverage rate.
Allow each coat to dry fully to the touch before applying next coat. Recoat time is 30-45 minutes and Dry time for final coat is 1-3 hours depending on temperature and humidity. Roll on second coat perpendicular to first coat. When spraying the coating over a patterned surface use a broom to work the coating in and to distribute the coating evenly, see image below. The final coat on a nonpatterned surface can be sprayed and rolled instead of brooming. Applying each layer perpendicular to the previous coating will ensure a more even finish.
DO NOT APPLY TO ASPHALT OR CONCRETE THAT HAVE BEEN SEALED UNLESS SEALER IS COMPLETELY REMOVED. IF WATER SPRINKLED ON THE SURFACE BEADS UP OR DOESN'T ABSORB INTO THE ASPHALT OR CONCRETE WITHIN A FEW SECONDS IT MEANS IT HAS BEEN SEALED.
The images below are from two different projects and the one is little blurry but you get the idea of applying over bricks and pavers. One guy is spraying while the other guys is working the coating into the pattern with a broom. Smooth surfaces can be simply rolled on. Rough surfaces can use a squeegee and a high nap roller. It's really a very easy product to apply.
Here's a job where the surface was rough textured asphalt on a driveway so they did the intial spreading with a squeegee and then back rolled with a roller to even out the coating.
• One Year Limited Warranty per coat, up to five coats can be applied. More coats will result in higher durability.
• Shore D Hardness of 80.8. About equal to construction hard hats!

Surface Bond requires little to no maintenance. Normal clean up can be done with a garden hose and a product such as Simple Green if needed to remove heavily soiled spots. TSP can be used to remove oil & grease stains. For municipal streets, street cleaners must have nylon rotary brushes. Power washing is ok, use no more than 2000psi. Gum may be removed by first freezing it and then chipping off.
When Surface Bond needs to be recoated it can be done at anytime, just clean and dry the surface and reapply. If concrete stamping has worn out then restamp prior to reapplication of Surface Bond.
During Fall foliage season care should be taken to remove leaves before they start to decompose. Lighter color leaves left on surface for extended periods of time can cause staining on any coating.
DO NOT APPLY OVER ASPHALT SEALERS
