Thermoplastic pavement marking paint can be applied quickly and easily with specialized equipment. It can be pre-formed into unique shapes and symbols, making it versatile for various road marking needs.
The frequency of line striping on an asphalt surface in South Florida will depend on the amount of traffic the surface sees and the condition of the existing lines. On average, it’s recommended to be done every 1-2 years.
