Early AM Parking Lot Striping Precautions

Friday, June 26th, 2009

Parking Lot Striping at night in the early morning hours is a tricky trade.

If you can totally prevent all foot and vehicular traffic in a given area, there is no reason why you can’t stripe just about any time.  Just keep in mind that no matter how little paint you apply, it will dry a lot slower than the same paint applied later in the day when the asphalt has a chance to heat up.  Consider these variables that affect the speed of paint drying on asphalt or concrete:

1. Sunlight/Shade
2. Wind
3. Heat in the pavement
4. Temperature
5. Relative Humidity
6. Moisture in the Asphalt

In the very early a.m., you probably won’t have the assistance of:

1. Sunlight
2. Heat in the pavement
3. Warm temperature

these are some of the things that give your paint the ability to dry quickly and avoid costly accidents.

The time span between application and the point at which it will not cause “tracking” may be as short as 15 minutes to several days.  Depending on the weather and the product used you may get very different results.  The biggest enemies of paint not drying are humidity, shade and cool air temperature.  So be mindful of them! One thing that we practice at Trueline Striping is to use rapid dry paint  products. We use these in times when we feel there is a drying risk.  Also make sure to carefully block off areas that do remain wet so nobody can wonder in to those areas.  One slip can mean BIG problems for you.

Good Luck and happy Line Painting!

Line Painting 101

Tuesday, January 6th, 2009

Its January again and you know what that means! New budgets.

With facility maintenance budgets being strapped these days, one sure way to get a lot of curb appeal for not a lot of money is parking lot line painting. It can be done quickly and with rapid dry paints, there is very little down time for your lot. In many cases, we will repaint a wall mart parking lot or section of a mall and have it dry before the mall even opens. Also, we can work at night and have no affect on your customers at all.

Line Painting can help brighten up your lines, arrows, stops and stencils. Or if you need more maintenance, we can help with that as well. We have a variety of services and maintenance programs to help you decide.
