Common Reasons and Solutions for Two-Component Spraying Road Markings When They Cannot Be Dry

It’s universally acknowledged that the two-component road markings are much sturdier, more wear-resistant and have longer reflective lifespan than the usual ones. There is no doubt that the two-component paint will have a wide application prospect for its two outstanding characteristics. With the advancement of paints and upgrading of equipment, the construction for two-component road markings is becoming simpler and more convenient. However, there are still many issues that need to be noted during the construction process. In particular, it’s very common that spraying road markings cannot be dry, which not only causes interference with construction progress, but also takes more time, labor and materials to be redone.

Today，Tory will try to introduce you to some common reasons for why road markings cannot be dry and methods about how to solve this problem.

1. Inappropriate construction temperature

Solution: Ensure that the temperature is above 0 ℃ during spraying, and the temperature is above 5 ℃ during screeding. Avoid construction under extreme temperature.

2. No curing agent added

Solution:Remember to add curing agent to B-component paint and mix them thoroughly before construction.

3. Uneven mixing of curing agent

Solution: Mix the B-component paint with the added curing agent thoroughly for 3-5 minutes.
