Looks like it works a lot better when using a squeegee compared to a paint roller.
I didn't know this method existed.

Without a doubt with the squeegee or a 30" brush like the guy used yesterday is the way to go. The company who did it for me last time used a squeegee, but I liked the brush application better. Left more material for sure, but in my estimation the squeegee was better for the 1st application as it forced material down into the texture of the AC finish.
The improved look is only half of it as it extends the life of the pavement. I was concerned after the 1st job my snowplow would scuff and take its toll on the finish but it held up well.
Posted on another platform about this work and the guy who has done other work for me and quoted the same job for roughly 20 cents more a SF called me last night all salty. He complained I should have told him I got another price and gave him an opportunity to meet it. I told him I did not expect him to drop his price by over a 1/3 and why he did not give me his best price from jump. He was pissed, but I said it saved me at least a grand and beating down his price would have been disrespectful and created unneeded drama.
