How do they draw road markings?

Traffic lights, signs and, of course, road markings are important elements in the organization of traffic. It is the latter that we would like to talk about in our article.

What are the requirements for road markings?

Road markings are created with special paints that must meet the following requirements:

  • Resistance to high-intensity operation by both passenger cars and large trucks;
  • Resistance to changes in air temperature, various precipitation and other weather conditions;
  • Resistance to freezing and thawing cycles;
  • Resistance to the influence of various chemical elements;
  • Resistance to engine oil, gasoline, etc.;
  • Resistance to salts and other substances that are used to prevent slipping in winter.

And of course it is desirable that the paint is reflective. 

In addition, it must be said that the paints for road markings should dry out quickly enough so as not to block traffic for too long and, moreover, not to be imprinted on the wheels of a car. 

As for the color palette, in our country the standard color is white. But yellow and red colors can also be found quite often. But it is already possible to approach the arrangement of parking lots more creatively and choose any possible shade that the manufacturer offers and which was laid down in his project. 

What kind of paint for road markings to choose?
We recommend using Tekno road marking paint called Teknobond 950.
