What is Primer in Line Markings for Roads?
Primer plays a critical role in road markings by enhancing the adhesion of thermoplastic road marking paint to the surface, similar to the function of double-sided tape. Primer is only used for thermoplastic road marking paint and not for other road marking paints (cold solvent, water-based, etc.).
Do I need to buy Primer or Primer Sprayer Machine for Road Markings?
Yes, you need.
Although for clean asphalt surfaces, the molten coating can be directly applied to the surface, and the coating or paint will melt the surface of the asphalt at high temperatures, bonding the two together without the need for primer.
However, for concrete surfaces or old asphalt surfaces, the melted coating and the surface cannot be tightly bonded. Therefore, before using thermoplastic paint for markings, primer needs to be sprayed on the surface to ensure the quality of the road markings.
