<strong>Restore</strong>-A-<strong>Drive</strong> <strong>Cat</strong> <strong>0108</strong>-<strong>001</strong>


The driveway makeover in a tin<br />

Why does paving fade<br />

Weathering<br />

Most pre-cast paving products are manufactured from<br />

sand, cement, aggregate and colour pigment.<br />

Unfortunately over time rain, U.V sunlight and the<br />

freeze/thaw cycle all combine to fade or “wash out”<br />

the pigment on the exposed face of the paving.<br />

Traffic<br />

Abrasion from foot or vehicle traffic gradually wears<br />

the surface of the paving .<br />

Moss/ Mould Growth<br />

This is a particular problem on older paving, on<br />

paving shaded from sunlight or on paving overhung by<br />

trees.<br />

Pressure Washing<br />

We all do it….Spring arrives and out comes the<br />

pressure washer to clean down the drive or patio!<br />

Pressure washers are great for cleaning but they too<br />

play their part in washing out the pigment from your<br />

paving (and often the joint sand too!).<br />

The Solution!<br />

<strong>Restore</strong> depth of colour<br />

“<strong>Restore</strong>-A-<strong>Drive</strong>” puts back the colour that the<br />

elements and wear and tear wash out. Formulated<br />

from a blend of premium resins and light-fast pigments,<br />

“<strong>Restore</strong>-A-<strong>Drive</strong>” penetrates deep into the paving<br />

surface to leave a “natural” looking finish. You can use<br />

it on virtually all pre-cast flags, paver blocks,<br />

decorative kerbs and borders. Lasts up to 5 years.<br />

Enhance original tones<br />

Block paving is often laid with subtly different shade<br />

blocks either for a mottled effect or to form a<br />

geometric design. Because “<strong>Restore</strong>-A-<strong>Drive</strong>” is a<br />

translucent liquid it will actually enhance these original<br />

tones, even on badly faded surfaces.<br />

Resistant to UV, water, oil & dirt<br />

“<strong>Restore</strong>-A-<strong>Drive</strong>” is an all-in-one treatment. As well as<br />

being a colour renovator it is also a high solids sealer<br />

which helps to repel water, light oils and grime.<br />

“<strong>Restore</strong>-A-<strong>Drive</strong>” is made using light-fast pigments to<br />

ensure prolonged life in direct sunlight.<br />

Easy application<br />

Applying “<strong>Restore</strong>-A-<strong>Drive</strong>” is simple. Once the paving<br />

has been prepared and allowed to dry, you simply roller<br />

on to achieve a beautiful “new look” drive or patio.<br />

Vibrant Colour Options<br />

“<strong>Restore</strong>-A-<strong>Drive</strong>” is available in three shades to treat<br />

different original surface colours. Please take care to<br />

select the correct colour as “<strong>Restore</strong>-A-<strong>Drive</strong>” is a<br />

permanent finish.<br />

Buff Brindle (2 shades) Anthracite<br />

IMPORTANT! Owing to printing limitations shades are strictly approximate. “<strong>Restore</strong>-A-<strong>Drive</strong>” is a translucent material and<br />

therefore the finished colour partly reflects the tones of the surface treated. It is therefore vital that the surface is clean and<br />

dark stains removed prior to treatment. We always recommend a small test area is treated to check compatibility .<br />

Four steps to the perfect finish!!<br />

1. Biocidal wash<br />

Prepare the surface by washing with a pressure washer fitted with a<br />

rotary patio cleaning tool. Once the paving is dry, spray the surface<br />

with a solution of <strong>Kingfisher</strong> “Biocidal Wash”. This sanitising<br />

solution will kill any latent moss, lichen or green mould spores.<br />

5Litres (makes 25 litres) Coverage: 4 sq m/litre<br />

2. Block Fill (weed inhibiting grout)<br />

Often when block paving is cleaned it is necessary to “top-up” the<br />

joint sand. Unlike traditional sand <strong>Kingfisher</strong> “Block-Fill” is a<br />

moisture curing grout which will not wash out and inhibits weed<br />

growth. Easy brush-in application for joints 5mm or less. 15Kg tub<br />

3. <strong>Restore</strong>-A-<strong>Drive</strong><br />

Apply a single coat of “<strong>Restore</strong>-A-<strong>Drive</strong>” evenly by brush or roller.<br />

Make sure that the paving is completely dry before applying<br />

“<strong>Restore</strong>-A-<strong>Drive</strong>” and that rain is not expected within 4 hours of<br />

application. Important! “<strong>Restore</strong>-A-<strong>Drive</strong>” is a translucent material<br />

and therefore the treated surface cures to a darker shade than the<br />

liquid. 5 litres or 25 litres, Coverage: 4 sq m/litre<br />

4. Ultimate Topcoat (optional)<br />

“Ultimate Topcoat” is our “high-solids” clear resin sealer which can<br />

be applied to most paving materials. Used on a surface treated with<br />

“<strong>Restore</strong>-A-<strong>Drive</strong>” it will provide added protection, improving the<br />

longevity of the finish. 5 litres /25 litres, Coverage: 4 sq m/litre<br />
