Why Adelaide's Busiest Areas Need Marking That Lasts Years, Not Months?
A shopping centre in West Lakes called us about their carpark entry lanes. They'd been repainting the entry arrows and stop lines every five months. The constant traffic wore through standard paint quickly, and the ongoing costs were frustrating. They wanted a longer-lasting option. We applied thermoplastic marking at the high-wear locations. Entry and exit lanes, stop lines, directional arrows, and pedestrian crossings. Two years later, the marking still looks fresh while surrounding painted areas have faded. We made a temperature error on an Adelaide CBD job in 2016. We applied thermoplastic on a hot January afternoon when the asphalt was above 50°C. The material didn't bond properly and softened. We reapplied in cooler early morning conditions at our cost, around $3,200.
