depends what you use - I am considering doing ours at some point this year and been told to use Bitumen based as it lasts

The water based ones look crap

Be interested in seeing what others think

Never knew this was a thing but from the Google images, it seems like a decent idea. Of course, if you do any colour other than black for your driveway, you are a complete cretin.

I used this stuff and did 2 coats.

Still looks ok a year on but could do with another coat either before or after this winter.
I wouldn't mind doing once a year as it is quick with a sweep brush and not a huge area.
