The 8 steps for applying striping paint: 1. Planning and design, 2. Material and equipment preparation, 3. Cleaning and preparing the construction surface, 4. Laying out lines and marking, 5. Applying striping paint, 6. Drying and curing, 7. Cleaning and inspection, 8. Opening traffic.

Under normal circumstances, the painting cycle of white road marking paint is about 1 to 2 years. However, the specific painting frequency should be adjusted according to the actual situation. For example, urban main roads with heavy traffic may need to be painted once a year, while rural roads with less traffic may be painted every two years or more.

Acrylic paint is a good choice for the above concrete floor problems due to its low gloss and high durability. For example, acrylic paint has excellent covering ability and can fill small cracks, potholes and other defects on concrete floors. Low gloss acrylic paint can reduce the reflection of the floor surface, making defects less noticeable, thereby improving the overall aesthetics.

Ordinary primers have a low solid content and form a thin coating film after application, so multiple applications are usually required to achieve the desired effect. The high-strength primer has a higher solid content and can form a thicker coating film in one go after application, thus saving construction time.

Polyurethane paint is particularly suitable for bathroom floors and walls, providing long-term protection for the surface against moisture penetration and mold growth. Its abrasion resistance also makes polyurethane paint an ideal choice for high-traffic areas in bathrooms.

Traditional paints are usually unable to effectively deal with the attachment of marine organisms, while modern antifouling paints use special formulas and technologies to prevent the attachment of organisms while maintaining the smoothness of the bottom of the ship, reducing water resistance and improving navigation efficiency.

If your focus is environmental protection and health, then water-based polyurethane paint is the best choice; if you need a durable protective layer, two-component oil-based polyurethane paint is more suitable.

In terms of robustness, epoxy coatings are undoubtedly superior. Its high hardness and impact resistance allow it to withstand the pressure of heavy machinery and frequent trampling without cracking or wearing out.

In 1924, Lester Wire, an engineer at the New York State Department of Transportation in the United States, first used a special paint to mark road lines. This paint has higher wear resistance and reflectivity and is considered to be the prototype of modern traffic paint.

Advantages of epoxy floor paint: Strong wear resistance Chemical corrosion resistance Beautiful and diverse decorative effects High strength and good pressure resistance Good adhesion Disadvantages of epoxy floor paint: High requirements for construction environment Not UV-resistant Risk of warping and cracking More complicated maintenance
