GSB-88®
FAA P-628 & UFGS 32 01 13.63 compliant
GSB-88® and GSB-88-HEAVY® are cationic, gilsonite-modified asphalt emulsions.
The original emulsion-based restorative and protective sealer brought to market in 1988
GSB-88® and GSB-88-HEAVY® are cationic, gilsonite-modified asphalt emulsions.
FAA and military pavement experts project that as much as 90% of airfield asphalt pavement deterioration can be attributed to surface oxidation. Early application and timely reapplications (about every five years) of GSB Products can mitigate surface oxidation as a contributing factor in airfield asphalt deterioration.
FAA P-628
As much as 60 percent of the life of asphalt pavement is lost in the first two years through oxidation.

Multiple longitudinal studies show that airfield asphalt pavements treated with high-quality GSB surface treatments — applied early, with regular reapplications — maintain significantly higher PCI values than untreated pavements and alternative treatments.
