In a chip seal road, a thin layer of asphalt is laid down before layers of crushed stone and aggregate are compacted on top of the asphalt. Chip seal is also known as macadam, named for a Scottish pioneer for paved roads. The engineer John McAdam invented the revolutionary crushed stone layer roads with binders in the early 1800s.

Nothing says a road is on the decline like the beginning of surface distresses such as raveling and cracking. Chip seals - when performed early in a road's lifespan (usually one to four years after newly paving) - can extend the life of the pavement by 10 years or more by preventing water intrusion to underlying layers, sealing surface cracks, and improving skid resistance.

Scrub seal is a more advanced and aggressive multi-step chip seal process that uses a specialized emulsion as an asphalt concrete rejuvenator and chip binder in conjunction with a mechanized scrub broom that forces the optimum amount of emulsion into existing pavement surface cracks.

Asphalt emulsions used in chip seal applications contain globules of paving asphalt, water, an "emulsifying agent" or surfactant, polymer, and sometimes a "rejuvenator." Soap is a common form of a surfactant. In washing clothes or dishes, the surfactant helps remove the dirt and suspend the dirt particles in the wash water.
