Line Striping in Business Parking Lots
Make sure to ask your local CertaPro Painters® franchise about this, as not all commercial services are offered at every location.
Line striping in parking lots is essential to keeping an organized traffic flow in your lot, but they can fade. And faded lines are hard to see, while stripes installed at the incorrect spacing can interrupt your lot’s flow which can also prove dangerous to traffic.
Short-Term Line Striping Solutions for Commercial Properties and Parking Lots
If the lines in your business’s parking lot have started to fade, one solution is to simply paint over them. But be careful if you decide to go this route. There are several pitfalls to doing it yourself including selecting the wrong paint for the specific lot substrate, not using the paint properly, and not properly preparing the surface of the lot. For example, concrete typically needs a solvent coating, while asphalt will normally need a latex- based product. Taking shortcuts when painting your lines will only cost you more time and money in the long run. Choosing the professional commercial painters at your independently owned and operated CertaPro Painters® will ensure that line marking properly painted with coating that lasts for your business or commercial property.

Proper Line Striping in Parking Lots by Professional
Using the correct paint is essential when restriping a parking lot. The paint should be bright and durable. Typically, water-based acrylic paints are used, but products also come in several other forms. The paint choice is only one part of the line striping process, however. Ensuring that your parking lot is properly spaced is just as important as making sure the paint is visible. The United States has standard dimensions for parking spaces that depend on the angle you are planning. Working with a professional commercial service like CertaPro Painters® will help to ensure that you not only use the proper paint but that the lines are striped at the correct spacing.
