Line Striping Project Challenges & Solutions
Why Was Line Striping Needed?
- To clearly define 3,204 linear feet of parking stall lines.
- Improve organization and traffic flow in a high-traffic industrial facility.
- Enhance safety for vehicles and personnel, especially in low-light conditions.
- Support the facility’s 24/7 operations, requiring round-the-clock visibility.
What Were the Challenges & Issues?
- Nighttime visibility: Standard paint wasn’t sufficient for after-dark safety.
- Precision timing required: Beads had to be applied while paint was still tacky—not too wet or too dry.
- Humidity could affect paint drying time.
- Wind could displace the beads during application.
- Durability: Ensuring the lines would hold up under constant use in a busy industrial setting.
Our Step-by-Step Line Striping Process
Mobilization & Setup
We transported materials, equipment, and prepared the job site. This included setup for sweeping, paint application, and traffic control.
Parking Lot Sweeping & Surface Prep
We thoroughly cleaned the parking lot and curbs to ensure strong paint adhesion and a clean, professional finish.
Professional Line Striping
Using high-quality, oil-based traffic marking paint, we striped:
- 356 parking stalls
- 3,204 linear feet of lines
- All measurements were verified for accuracy and compliance.
Color-Coded Markings
White – Parking stalls, crosswalks
Blue – ADA markings
