I've just had a new driveway and I can see white lines. What are they and will they be there forever?

Occasionally the metal drums on the roller will leave a "white" edging which appears as lines. It is common to white and rust coloured stains on freshly sealed asphalt. This is not some defect in the sealer or caused by an error during sealing, but actually comes from a natural compound in water, gravel and dirt. Mineral salts can dry the surface as a result of water run off. These marks are all temporary and should vanish within the first few months.
