Asphalt is a material that is commonly used for paving roads and parking lots. It is made up of a mixture of gravel, sand, and asphalt cement. Asphalt cement is a sticky black substance that acts as the binding agent for the other materials.
The fastest way to cure asphalt is to apply heat. This can be done with a torch or by hot air blowers. The heat will cause the asphalt to soften and become pliable. Once it has softened, it can then be compacted with a roller or tamper.
