Description
SETFAST ACRYLIC LATEX TRAFFIC MARKING PAINT is a conventional dry (non-heated application) water based paint intended for use in marking parking lots, airports, and roads. The product dries to no pickup in less than 60 minutes when properly applied under most environmental conditions.
Material Use:
Setfast® Waterborne Traffic Marking Paint is a fast-drying, water-based traffic marking paint designed for use on cured asphalt, concrete, and brick surfaces. It is ideal for marking parking lots, curbs, runways, and roadways. This product is suitable for both commercial and municipal applications, including apartment complexes, shopping centers, schools, universities, airfields, and highways.
System Components:
This is a single-component system that does not require a primer or topcoat. It is applied as a standalone coating in one coat. However, it can be used in conjunction with glass beads to create reflective markings. The paint serves as a binder for the beads, which should be applied while the paint is still wet.
Applications:
Setfast® is recommended for use on properly prepared and cured asphalt, concrete, and brick surfaces. It is commonly used for striping parking lots, roads, airfields, and other paved surfaces. It is not intended for use as a floor paint or for large pedestrian areas due to potential slipperiness when wet.

Special Notes:
- Do not apply on uncured asphalt or wet surfaces.
- New asphalt should ideally age for several months before application. If early application is necessary, limit wet film thickness to 8 mils (approx. 200 sq. ft./gal) to reduce risk of lifting or cracking.
- Excessive film thickness can cause lifting on new asphalt.
- Surface must be clean, dry, and free of contaminants.
- Do not tint the paint.
- Not intended for large pedestrian areas due to potential slipperiness when wet.
- Can be used with stencils and glass beads for reflective striping.
- Complies with major environmental regulations including OTC, CARB, and SCAQMD.
- For professional use only.
This product is a reliable, fast-drying solution for traffic and pavement marking, offering ease of use, water cleanup, and compliance with environmental standards.
