8.2. Sealant Applicators Not Recommended. Pouring pots or gravity-fed sealant applicators
are not recommended for sealing cracks. These applicators have a tendency to trap air in the
sealant as it is applied into the crack, creating voids in the sealant. When spot repairs are made
to cracks that have been sealed, it may not be feasible to use the hot-applied sealant applicator
as described above and pour pots may be used. The pour pot should be equipped with a nozzle
that will fit inside the crack in the same manner as the nozzle of the hot-applied sealant
applicator.
