Once you have your equipment set up, it's time to find a second helper. You will need them. Add three and a quarter quarts water to a 5-gallon bucket. Next, use the bucket's mixing paddle to add the water. Then ask your helper for the resurfacer. Mix it for five minutes. Only stop mixing once the mixture reaches a smooth, syrup-like consistency. Add a little more water if the mixture seems too thick. If it is too thin, you can add more resurfacer. Your helper can place weatherstripping in the expansion joints of your driveway as you mix to keep the resurfacer's from filling them.
