Gator Patch is Asphalt Kingdom's best-selling asphalt driveway repair product. Each 5-gallon pail can cover up to 100 square feet of alligator cracks. This pallet contains 36 pails so you can fix multiple parking lots or one large parking lot without worrying that you will run out in the middle of a job.
A Quick and Easy Way to Fix Alligator Cracks
Alligator cracks are usually the first sign that there is something wrong with an asphalt driveway or parking lot. Fortunately, this type of asphalt damage is easy to fix.
Whether you're planning to patch your asphalt parking lot on your own or you're a contractor looking for a reliable product to use throughout the season, then Gator Patch is for you.
Gator Patch contains petroleum asphalt, sand, clay, and water.
Petroleum asphalt mixed with water binds sand and clay together to form a strong and long-lasting product with mud-like consistency. When applied, it produces a smooth and impenetrable surface. Give your old and damaged asphalt parking lot or driveway a makeover with Gator Patch!
- No need to repave the damaged area – all you need is Gator Patch
- Produces a smooth finish
- An affordable solution to prolong pavement lifespan
Where you can Use Gator Patch?
Alligator cracks
Shallow holes
Cracks wider than 1/2"
Using Gator Patch
This asphalt patch is ready to use right out of the bucket. And it's easy to use too!
All you need is a 16-inch steel wire broom, a gas blower, a 24-inch asphalt squeegee, some traffic cones, and an attention ribbon.
Clean the entire alligatored area with your steel wire broom. Carefully remove loose aggregate, debris, leaves, and dust from the cracks and entire surface.
Use a gas blower to ensure that the surface is 100% dust-free.
How to Know if You Can Patch Over Oil Spots – The Key Test
Before applying Gator Patch over oil-stained asphalt, make sure the surface is structurally sound. Oil contamination can prevent patch materials from bonding properly. Use this simple field test before you apply:
The Key Test
- Press a key or screwdriver into the stained surface.
- If it sinks in or crumbles: The base is compromised. Cut it out and replace it with a full-depth patch.
- If it feels firm: Pressure wash with hot water or apply a chemical degreaser, then use a bonding primer like Oxi-Bond before applying Gator Patch.
Doing this ensures your patch bonds properly and lasts, even when working on areas with previous oil or grease contamination.
Once the entire area is clean, open a bucket of Gator Patch and apply a small amount of the material onto the alligatored surface. Take your squeegee and apply Gator Patch on the damaged asphalt. Apply a thin, even coat for faster curing time. Wipe excess product off the sides and ensure that the entire surface is even.
Apply a second coat 30 minutes or so after applying the first coat.
Let the patched area dry and cure by blocking the area from vehicle and foot traffic with traffic cones and attention ribbon. Drying and curing will take about 2 to 4 hours (under favorable conditions).
Wait 48 hours before sealcoating the repaired area.
This product is compatible with asphalt emulsion and coal tar sealers.
Do not use Gator Patch after it has rained or if rain is in the forecast.

Gator Patch is designed to fix alligator cracks on the pavement. To save money, apply Gator Patch only to the alligator-cracked areas, then sealcoat everywhere else for a uniform finish.
It is recommended to apply Gator Patch first, then apply the sealer. This adds additional protection and can extend the service life of the pavement.
Both coal tar emulsion sealers and asphalt-based sealers are compatible with cured Gator Patch.
Think of Gator Patch like peanut butter on toast. You want a smooth layer that covers the pavement and works down into the cracks, but not so thick that it’s all patch and no pavement.
For best results, apply multiple thin coats and let each coat dry before adding the next. Use a hard trowel or a stiff squeegee to spread it evenly across the surface.
Rubberized Hot Pour Filler is a better solution for this because it stays flexible due to its higher rubber content.
Rubber crack filler expands and contracts with heat and cold. Gator Patch does not have the same flexibility, so using it to fill linear cracks, especially working cracks, can cause the repair to fail and allow moisture and water to seep into the pavement’s foundation.
Yes, Gator Patch™ can be used to fill shallow depressions.
For depressions deeper than 1/4 inch, apply it in multiple thin coats, no more than 1/4 inch per coat, and allow each coat to dry thoroughly before adding the next.
Gator Patch is temperature-sensitive. When it is extremely hot, it reacts slower to cure as the humidity plays a major factor in the curing process. The heat also softens the gator film and tire marks will be present. After it cools down, the Gator Patch will harden.
Even with the hot weather, the Gator Patch will continue to absorb moisture from rain, and humidity for a short period of time.
We do not recommend applying the Gator Patch when there is a chance of rain as the asphalt will be wet and/or the temperature will be below 50°F.
Another factor is if the Gator Patch applied is thicker than the required specifications, it will also contribute to the slow cure time. It should be applied in multiple layers, as needed, to ensure that it dries and cures as quickly as possible.
