PAINT APPLICATOR

Apply marking paint with approved mechanical equipment. Provide equipment with constant agitation of paint and travel at controlled speeds. Synchronize one or more paint "guns" to automatically begin and cut off paint flow in case of skip lines. Equipment to have manual control to apply continuous lines of varying length and marking widths as indicated on Drawings. Provide pneumatic spray guns for hand application of paint in areas where mobile paint applicator cannot be used. // Use separate piece of equipment when equipment does not have glass bead dispenser. Adjust and synchronize equipment with paint applicator to distribute reflective beads on paint lines uniformly within ten seconds without any waste. //

PAINT

Paint: MPI No. 97. For obliterating existing markings comply with Fed. Spec. TTP1952. Provide minimum 18 L (5 gallons) containers.

EXECUTION

PREPARATION

Examine and verify substrate suitability for product installation.

Protect existing construction and completed work from damage.

Clean substrates. Remove contaminants capable of affecting subsequently installed product's performance.

Remove dust, dirt, and other granular surface deposits by sweeping, blowing with compressed air, rinsing with water, or combination of these methods.

As an option, comply with Fed. Spec. TTP1952 for removal of existing paint markings on asphalt pavement. Apply black paint in as many coats as necessary to completely obliterate existing markings.

Scrub affected areas with several applications of trisodium phosphate solution or other approved detergent or degreaser, and rinse thoroughly after each application, Where oil or grease are present on old pavements to be marked, .

Clean and dry surface before pavement marking. Do not begin any marking until Contracting Officer's Representative inspected surface and gives permission to proceed.

INSTALLATION - GENERAL

Install products according to manufacturer's instructions and approved submittal drawings.

When manufacturer's instructions deviate from specifications, submit proposed resolution for Contracting Officer's Representative consideration.

PAINT APPLICATION

Apply uniformly painted pavement marking of required colors, length, and width with true, sharp edges and ends on properly cured, prepared, and dried surfaces.

Comply with details as indicated on drawings and established control points.

Apply paint at wet film thickness of 0.4 mm (0.015 inch). Apply paint in one coat. When directed by Contracting Officer's Representative, apply additional coats at markings showing light spots. Comply with paint manufacturer's maximum drying time requirements to prevent undue softening of asphalt, and pickup, displacement, or discoloration by tires of traffic.

When deficiency in marking drying occurs, discontinue paint operations until cause of slow drying is determined and corrected.

Remove and replace marking applied less than minimum material rates, deviates from true alignment, exceeds stipulated length and width tolerances, or shows light spots, smears, or other deficiencies or irregularities.

DETAIL PAVEMENT MARKING APPLICATION

Apply Detail Pavement Markings, exclusive of actual traffic lane marking as follows:

At exit and entrance islands and turnouts.

On curbs.

At crosswalks.

At parking bays.

Other locations as indicated on drawings.

Install detail pavement markings of colors, widths and lengths, and design pattern at locations indicated on drawings.

TOLERANCES

Length and Width of Lines: Plus or minus 75 mm (3 inches) and plus or minus 3 mm (1/8 inch), respectively, in case of skip markings.

Length of intervals exceeding line length tolerance are not acceptable.

CLEANING

Remove excess paint before paint sets.

PROTECTION

Protect pavement markings from traffic and construction operations.

Protect newly painted markings from vehicular traffic until paint is dry and track free.

Place warning signs at beginning of wet line, and at points well in advance of marking equipment for alerting approaching traffic from both directions.

Place small flags or other similarly effective small objects near freshly applied markings at frequent intervals to reduce crossing by traffic.
