There are three main things that you need to consider, firstly are there any existing markings that need to be removed. Removing existing markings can bump up the total cost of your project. Typically there is a mechanical process that takes place to make sure that the line markings stick to the surface and doesn't flake off. The final thing to take into consideration is the application of the line marking itself. Most of our products are sprayed on with specialist airless spray equipment, which is a fast way of applying the markings and helps keep the cost down. There are a few products which can be applied by hand, this is a much slower process and usually increases cost.
The sturdy thermoplastic is built to be heavy duty and robust so it may be used significantly every single day on a facility such as a road. These kinds of graphics can be applied by one person working with a burner, and so the application is affordable for you.
