While conventional slurry seal is used around the world as an economical treatment for sealing and extending the service life of both urban and rural roads, micro surfacing has added capabilities, thanks to the use of high-quality, carefully monitored materials, including advanced polymers and other modern additives. 2, record 2, English, - microsurfacing

Karnak 160 Amphibicaulk is a cold process, heavy bodied, caulk-grade roof cement ideal for sealing leaks in and around asphalt built-up roofs, joints, chimney cracks, skylights, vents, down-spouts and gutters. The dried film retains its flexibility and ductility, so the caulking will resist extreme variations in temperature and weather. Karnak 160 Amphibicaulk may also be used to improve wind resistance on low slope shingle roofs. 3, record 5, English, - low%20slope%20shingle
