Description
PROMAR ALKYD ZONE MARKING PAINT is a fast-drying, medium oil alkyd in two colors, white and yellow, conforming to U.S. Bureau of Public Roads colors.
Material Use:
ProMar® Alkyd Zone Marking Paint is a fast-drying, medium oil alkyd-based traffic marking paint designed for high-visibility striping on cured asphalt, concrete, and brick surfaces. It is primarily used for marking parking lots, curbs, runways, and other paved surfaces in commercial, municipal, and institutional settings. This product is ideal for use by pavement stripers, asphalt seal contractors, and property maintenance professionals.
System Components:
This is a single-component system that does not require a primer or topcoat. It is ready to use and can be applied directly to properly prepared cured surfaces. For reflective markings, glass beads may be dropped onto the wet paint to enhance visibility at night.
Applications:
ProMar® Alkyd Zone Marking Paint is suitable for use in a variety of environments including apartment communities, shopping centers, schools and universities, municipalities, airfields, and highways. It is designed for use on cured asphalt, concrete, and brick surfaces. It is not intended for use as a floor paint or for large pedestrian areas due to potential slipperiness when wet.
