Background description of company and its products:
	Company is privately held and was orignally a contracting and paving company with an asphalt plant based in Baltimore Maryland since the late 1920\\\'s. We developed and introduced the first permanent asphalt repair material in 1980, Perma-Patch, which is
Recommended Uses-Primary: Concrete Patching Material

Outstanding Features or Advantages Claimed:
	Perma-Patch is made of special polymers, pressure sensitive plastics, unique blend of asphalt and special blemd of angular aggregates. It used for the permanent repair of potholes, utility cuts, depressions, cut outs, small cracks and other pavement problems. Perma-Patch was independently rated as the No. 1 asphalt repair material in N. America by the federal government through their SHRP study. Testing was conducted on over 100 different asphalt repair materials in eight different locations over an 18 month an 4.65 year period.Unlike other cold and hot patches which cure through evaporation, Perma-Patch cures through dynamic pressure. The more it is compacted or driven on the harder the surface becomes like the surrounding pavement, but underneath it stays semi-pliable, like a mini expansion joint, which allows it to expand and contract with the changes in pressure and temperature. Perma-Patch can be applied in an air temperature range of -15 to over 100 degrees F. It can even be placed in standing water without affecting the performance. Perma-Patch will adhere to asphalt, concrete, metal, wood and most solid objects,but not rubber tires. Perma-Patch has a minimum shelf life of two years, more than double any competitors. Perma-Patch is the only asphalt material that can be placed as thin as the aggregate, 1/4\\\" which makes it ideal for pop outs, depressions and bridge deck repairs.

Since the information contained herein may be applied under conditions beyond our control and with which we may be unfamiliar and since data made available subsequent to the date hereof may suggest modifications of the information, we do not assume any responsibility for the results of its use. The information is furnished upon the condition that the person receiving it shall make his/her own determination of the suitability of the material for his/her particular purpose. Additional Health Data Sign and symptoms of ventral nervous system depression may include one or more of the following: headache, Dizziness, loss of appetite, weakness and loss of coordination. Affected persons usually experience complete Recovery when removed from the exposure area. No association has been established between industrial exposure to petroleum asphalt and cancer in humans. Asphalts contain small amounts of polynuclear aromatic hydrocarbons (ONSâ€™s) which when concentrated, have been shown to cause skin cancer in mice after prolonged and frequent contact. Studies in which mice were exposed to a variety of whole asphalts did not result in any increased cancer rate. Brief or intermittent skin contact with this asphalt product is not expected to produce any serious effects. While normal handling of this product is not likely to cause cancer in humans, skin contact and breathing of mists, fumes or vapors should be reduced to a minimum. We strongly recommend that the precautions outlined in this bulletin be followed when handling this material. SPECIAL PRECAUTIONS READ AND OBSERVE ALL PRECAUTIONS ON PRODUCT LABEL.
