It's getting to that time of the year again and cracks in concrete and joints may need attention, I came upon this product years ago and it has saved me with expensive joint sealing or just random cracks at the wash and at home, all you need is to clean out the crack or joint put in backer rod (if needed) then insert the crack stix and melt with either a torch or weed burner I strongly recommend the black crack stix as the gray crack stix tends to burn easy if you focus the heat on it too much and then it looks discolored, check out the link below.

I have not tried it in the self serve bays you would have to deepen the crack so the crack stix goes at least 1/8" below the surface to prevent overfilling Otherwise, go to Home Depot and buy the "Gray Sika Self Leveling Sealant" in the bldg materials dept.

I've use it in cracks on my SS heated floors, works great.
I've also used self leveling caulk to radon seal the french drains in the basement at home. Also worked great, but I dont know if it would hold up at that wash. Not saying it wouldnt, I just dont know.
