Parking lot striping looks great freshly painted! Learn how to paint clear colorful parking lot striping on your parking lot. This will allow you to manage parking lot traffic effectively. Parking lot striping is used to mark parking slots for cars, detailed signs showing traffic flow direction, no parking signs, handicap signs, etc.

You can use a parking lot striper to paint straight parking striping on any asphalt or concrete surface. You can also do it by hand with a 4 inch paint roller but this tends to get quite messy and time consuming compared to an easy to use parking lot striper at a cost of only $119 including delivery.

It is also important to have the right parking lot stencils to be able to mark the no parking areas, arrows, handicap signs, etc. This will cater to your visitor's needs and show that you care about your customers.

A few things you should consider before you paint lines on your parking lot…..

It's important to know how much paint you'll need before you get to the job site. Visit Paveman Pro's Paint Calculator for help determining your needs.

You should make sure that you have thoroughly cleaned the asphalt surface from all dirt and debris. Most parking lot owners or managers invest into a gas powered blower to clean the asphalt surface. This will save a tremendous amount of time and energy versus sweeping the whole lot by hand. The gas blower can be used for a variety of different things (cleaning up leaves, cleaning asphalt, drying wet areas or puddles, etc.) so consider it an investment for your business.

Once your asphalt surface is clean you should make sure that all your asphalt parking lot cracks have been properly cleaned and that the cracks have been properly filled. You want to make sure that water isn't getting into the cracks as this will cause the asphalt to decay very quickly.

Once you have filled the asphalt parking lot cracks, you should consider sealcoating your parking lot. Sealcoating your parking lot will protect it from the elements and also give the surface a nice clean slate black finish that will allow for your parking lot striping to stand out in the colorful way that they should.

Once you have followed the above asphalt maintenance steps, you're now ready to paint your parking lot lines and add your parking signs.
