Why Gator Roller?

The Roller Alliance Specifies in Their Own Instructions

Spraying alone leaves puddles, and puddles dry as milky or blotchy patches. Back-rolling pulls the excess out and evens the film, which is why Alliance builds it into every application step.

Description

The Roller Alliance Specifies in Their Own Instructions

Every Alliance sealer data sheet says the same thing: spray it, then back-roll it. Yellow for water based, black for solvent based, and using the wrong one is how you get a ruined roller and a streaked patio.

Where Gator Roller Works

Use a Gator Roller for:

  • Back-rolling any Alliance paver sealer after spraying
  • Evening out the film in 60 sq ft sections
  • Pulling excess sealer out of low spots before it dries

Match the Roller to the Sealer

Do not use the yellow water-base roller with a solvent sealer. The solvent attacks the cover and you will roll fibres into the finish.

Alliance recommends two people on a sealer job: one spraying, one back-rolling behind.

How to Back-Roll a Paver Sealer

The full step by step guide is in the official documentation below. Here is the shape of the job:

  1. Spray one 60 sq ft section at a time.
  2. Back-roll immediately with the correct roller, working the sealer even and lifting any puddles.
  3. Move to the next section and keep a wet edge so the sections blend.
  4. Do not go back over cured areas. One coat is what Alliance specifies.

Quick Answers

Why two different rollers?
Solvent based sealer dissolves a cover made for water based product. The black roller is built to resist it.

Which one for a Hybrid sealer?
Yellow. Every Hybrid Seal is water based.

Which one for Gator Seal Wet Look?
Black. The Gator Seal line is solvent based.

Do I really need to back-roll?
Alliance builds it into the application step of every sealer TDS. Skipping it is the usual cause of milky or blotchy patches from over-application.

What size?
9 inch, the standard frame size.
