What temperature does it need? Does it only stick with a gas burner?
190c to 200c it is on their website.
Lidl work trousers and a pair of office shoes... Strong look.
Is this product mainly intended for small\quick repair jobs or can it be used with a entire parking lot? I am asking if it is cost effective compared to paint when doing a parking lot of 50+ parking stalls.
You could use thermoplastic for a full car park no problem! It really depends on your expectations on how long the lines need to last. If you were making lines in a Tesco car park, thermoplastic lines would be great. It might be a bit over the top for a private car park with a couple of bays. Centrecoat ST1 would be good for light duty www.promain.co.uk/centrecoat-sk1-water-based-road-line-marking.html
Can you use a weed burner for this?
That works for marking on rocks and stones?
I'm looking for the particular knowledge to cut numbers out, fast & effienctly from thermoplastic? any manual setups recommended.
that's what I was looking for did you find out anything
We offer a full cutting service for words, numbers and logos. Take the hassle out of it and let us do it for you!
I've got white and yellow thermoplastic lines but I don't have that gas burner thing. Will a mini blowtorch work or will it burn it and change the colour?
You can use it we do for small things at my work like putting the logo on our shipping containers, but be very careful too much heat will start to burn it obviously making it loose like all colour then go black from the fuck ups ive seen, if you have access it’s allot easier to use the torch shown in the video thou
Do you guys have a distributor in usa??
Afraid we only distribute to the UK, though thermoplastic is available abroad!
What is the aggregate you apply?
Hi Janie, our premium quality thermoplastic tape for line marking contains glass beads already that act as an anti slip and reflective aggregate all in one. Our economy tape does not contain this but we are able to supply a suitable aggregate for your requirements. We did however illustrate in the video the application of our Centrecoat Drop On Glass Beads available on id4085 - www.promain.co.uk/reflective-glass-beads.html
Is way more expensive the strip painting???
Thermoplastic is much easier to apply and quicker to apply. If you aren't used to applying line marking, thermoplastic is ideal
does this work on concrete?
Hi Hani, Sorry for the late reply!!! Yes it does, but you would need to use our spray on tack adhesive to aid adhesion before the tape is applied.
Use primer
Preform thermo is ok for something quick way is to get it do in screed preform tends to crack a lot quicker or if u use the blow torch you could also blow the material or even burn it
Nice shoes
Awesome Idea but to labour intensive, the process is time consuming, my concern is that looking at conventional line striping hot or cold this method although a great idea will not be productive versus time and profit, to many processes to follow and you will spend much time on a project, a pitty
For anything more than 5 stripes this would take way to Long
Thermolastic lines are ideal for DIY use, not huge jobs or car parks etc. We have a huge range of line marking options - visit out site for more info: promain.co.uk
I'm by no means an expert, but setting up the painting equipment and cleaning it up afterwards takes time and a commercial vehicle to transport it. I think the beauty of this system is that it is ideal for smaller jobs and requires very little in the way of equipment.
If you want the lines painted, you'd have to get in a professional company. This is a DIY solution. Hire a contractor, and you'll have to wait for them ... and then re-arrange if it's raining heavily.. DIY and you can do it in your own time.
I think this stuff is quite expensive, but probably saves time and money in paying other people and deciding your own time to do the job when the weather is OK.
The lines are backwards
No it’s not, that’s how it’s rolled so it can be used that way
