traffic color

Traffic paints include cold traffic paints and warm traffic paints, cold traffic paint is made based on thermoplastic acrylic resin and solvent base and water base, strong adhesion and high drying speed on cement surfaces, high resistance to moisture and acid. And open and water are prominent features of this product.

Warm traffic paint is based on hydrocarbon and alkyd resin. This product is also known as thermoplast traffic color. This product is produced in powder and solid form and its temperature must be increased to a certain level before use.

High drying speed, high abrasion resistance

Having proper color grading, excellent adhesion to asphalt and concrete

Not changing color with sunlight, having good weather resistance

One of the most important factors in traffic colors is surface preparation. Surface preparation makes the traffic color have the desired adhesion with the substrate and increases its durability. To prepare the surface, it is necessary to consider the following points:

Dryness of the surface: Basically, in order for the paint film to be applied on the surface, it is necessary to be free of any moisture. Otherwise, adhesion between the paint and the asphalt will not occur.

Cleanliness of the surface: Also, the substrate must be free of any dust and dirt. For this purpose, generally before any marking, the surfaces are cleaned by high-pressure wind.

Removal of other chemicals: The presence of any chemicals such as tar, oil, gasoline

and… causes the traffic paint to suffer a decrease in its durability properties.

Filling gaps and voids: In some passages, there are cracks and roughness on the surface, which, in addition to increasing paint consumption, will decrease adhesion and cause cracks in the paint film. Therefore, these gaps and voids should be removed as much as possible.

Use of primer: In order to increase the adhesion of traffic colors, special primers are used. These primers increase the durability of traffic colors.

To apply traffic color to draw lines and signs, marking devices and equipment are usually used.

After ensuring favorable weather conditions for the application of traffic paint, attention should be paid to the surface conditions of the application site, so that the surface in question is free of moisture and any pollution, including dust, grease, etc. To apply, add the thinner slowly and with a ratio of 5 to 8% (according to the viscosity of the paint) to the main component of the paint. After mixing with a suitable marking machine, apply the traffic paint at a thickness of about 700 microns. It is not recommended to use manual methods to achieve a uniform thickness. During the execution, the paint thickness must be constantly measured using a thickness gauge. A more colored shoulder, to be controlled.

The suitable temperature for the storage of the Romolo silicone paint product is 5-40 degrees Celsius, the useful life of this product is 12 months provided that it is kept in the original container, in a covered environment and away from moisture, freezing, extreme heat and direct sunlight.

It is recommended to refrain from inhaling the solvent vapors of this color in closed spaces and use appropriate safety equipment as much as possible and wash with plenty of water in case of contact with skin and eyes, this color is flammable and should be away from heat, sparks and flames.
