Water-based paint has been used to stripe pavement for decades, but it’s not the most durable option on the market. Many people choose thermoplastic for its durability, consistency, and longevity.
Thermoplastic is ideal for high-traffic areas like roadways, garages, and parking lots. It lasts significantly longer than traditional water-based paint. Thermoplastic is made of binders, bright pigments, and glass beads.
One of the key differences between traditional and thermoplastic pavement markings is their reflectivity.
Thermoplastic markings are significantly brighter than those painted with water-based paint. This enhanced reflectivity is because of the tiny glass beads mixed into the thermoplastic material.
Thermoplastic is also lightweight, cost-effective, and durable in hot climates—perfect for Texas weather.
Once bonded, thermoplastic pavement markings can last up to five years. Alpha Paving applies these markings by preheating the material to 400+ degrees Fahrenheit.
After preheating, we feed the molten thermoplastic into a screed box or a ribbon gun. We then apply the thermoplastic and immediately embed glass beads for enhanced visibility.
Thermoplastic line striping is versatile for various traffic control and surface marking needs. It’s a great way to ensure the safety of drivers and pedestrians. Here are some of the most common applications for thermoplastic:
The material is sprayed or extruded onto the pavement surface to form the desired markings. As it cools and solidifies, it adheres to the pavement, creating durable and long-lasting markings
