80 Tack Coat Specifications, Materials, and Construction Practices � requiring the use of reduced-tracking tack coat materials, � allowing the use of reduced-tracking tack coat materials, � sanding of tack coat materials after application, � wetting or dampening of the pavement before the application of tack, and � allowing/requiring the use of a spray pavers. Almost 60% of the respondents in the United States and Canada reported that tracking continues to be a problem.
