Product Overview
Latex-ite 4.75 Gal. Ultra Shield Driveway Filler Sealer is an asphalt emulsion based driveway sealer/filler for blacktop. Ultra Shield is an advanced EZ-Gel formula that has an enhanced rubberized system for maximum durability and color retention. Ultra Shield contains ThermaSeal Technology which will speed up cure time and allow for cool weather application – down to 40 degrees F. Helpful hints before you seal your driveway: 1) Buy an extra pail. Any unused portion can be saved for touch-ups (you do not want to run out during the project as you might get color variations). 2) Flip pails overnight prior to doing job (it will be much easier to mix in the morning and will ensure consistency during application). 3) Do the project all at one time without starting and stopping. 4) Allow patch and repairs a minimum of 24 hours to cure. We recommend sealing when the temperature is 55 degrees F but since Ultra Shield contains ThermaSeal technology it will cure in cooler temperatures, down to 40 degrees F. Make sure no rain is in the forecast for at least 36 hours. Note: If product is not available to order in your area, that is due to nighttime temperatures. Product may not cure and/or track in late fall and early spring applications.

How many square feet does the sealer cover
Asked by Christopher April 6, 20214
Answers2 cans will cover 800 sq. feet if the driveway is in fairly good shape. If it hasn't been treated in a while the driveway will soak it up and you'll use more sealer.

how long before i can walk on it
Asked by rrr October 24, 20204
AnswersYou should be able to walk on it after 2 to 3 hours. I would recommend waiting at least 24 to 30 hours to drive on it.
IS IT EASY TO MIX BEFORE APLICATION?
Asked by Wally October 19, 20203
AnswersYes. I rolled my pails end-over-end and rolled them around on their sides. If you choose to stir with something(idk what) you can easily spray the sealer off with a water hose and nozzle.
what is the shelf life of unopened containers?
Asked by zatwho October 19, 20202
AnswersIt last at least through winter if you keep it from freezing. Freezing it ruins it.
How to use the sealer and how far does it go?
Asked by Bill October 17, 20202
AnswersBlow or sweep driveway, Big cracks must be filled with trowel patch otherwise they will show when the job is done, About 250 sq feet first coat and 300 sq feet second coat per pail. Be sure to buy rubber squeege on broomstick handle. Stir pail and dump about 1/5 pail in line and spread out with squeege. Second coat can be applied when previous coat is thoroughly dry. On a hot sunny day, two or three coats can be applied. Be sure to clean up tools with water hose between jobs.
What is the best way to remove this product from your mixing tools after they have dried? Also, c...
Asked by blindedbyscience October 11, 20202
AnswersBest practice would be to remove the product from your tools while it is fresh. It comes off with just water. Easy to use a hose at full strength and rinse off the tools. Once it dries, there is no easy way to remove the product.

Lasted less than 5 months
I cleaned the driveway in early October 2020. Primed the few oil spots with their Primer product. Applied the Latex-ite Ultra Shield sealer October 9. Noticed it was flaking off in February or March 2021. As of April 2021, more than 75% has flaked off.
Didn't meet expectations. Very Disappointed with this product. Do not use this produce.

lies lies lies
Product states that one bucket will cover a minimum of 300 Sq ft is clearly a lie. My driveway is roughly 750 sq ft. I ended up having to go back to home depot twice for more buckets. I ended up using 7 buckets and only one coat. I refuse to buy more for a second coat. This should've been a 2 bucket project at $60. Ended up being a single coat, 7 bucket project at $210. My driveway is the aggregate type. I added a picture of what two buckets got me (about 200 sq ft). I also waited the 36 hours before water contact and it's already coming off. DO NOT BUY if you have an aggregate driveway. Waste of money

Very Disappointing
I spent the extra money for UltraShield with the hope that it would last for a few years. I am very disappointed. Hours were spent in cleaning and preparation. It was applied in August and by fall had begun to deteriorate. Over the course of the winter the driveway has been covered with fine sand-like particles and small 0.25" pieces from the sealer. Now, in April, most of the sealer is gone.

Very bad product
Put this stuff on in 60% weather and rained 3 days later and that's when it started tracking and bleeding sand like crazy. I made the mistake of trusting this once but will never buy anything with the word LATEX on it again. Try getting a hold of someone and that's a whole new problem. I'd be ashamed to talk to someone i just jilted out of money too.

Product is poor and warranty sucks
Bought this last year...followed directions ...used it once before with no issues...5 yrs later i tried again..it flaked off and cracked..i called customer service and provided pictures...they blame the cracking on the driveway which has no cracks before..and the flaking...they said it needs 2 thin coats...gee duh no kidding that's what I did...so I guess they stood over my shoulder during the full process if they were watching they should have just did it

2 more photos of this peeling sealer
These are 2 more photos of this peeling sealer. Again this is the worst sealer I've ever purchased. Started peeling away in 10 weeks. Applied in September 2020, started peeling in December 2020. A waste of money and time. The most misleading product label I've ever seen.

Started peeling in 10 weeks. I followed the instructions to a T. A waste of $ and time.
The worst sealer I've ever bought. Started to peel in 10 weeks. Applied in late September 2020 in above 70° weather. In December it was peeling. Now in March 12 2021 most of it is gone. Absolute garbage. Purchased at The Home Depot in Waldorf MD in September 2020. Instructions were followed to a T.

Three months after install product is failing
Seemed like best sealer in 20 year. Sealed driveway excellent, non skid, water repelled. Three months later as cold weather set in sealer begain to flack and crumble. I always buy top of line materials, as i only seal driveway about every five years. And it take 14 containers over two days with prep. Very disapointed that i will have to repeat process this summer
