above the dew point. Painting operations shall be discontinued when the surface temperature exceeds the
manufacturer’s recommendations for the appropriate paint application temperature ranges. Markings shall
not be applied when the pavement temperature is greater than 120°F.
620-3.2 EQUIPMENT. Equipment shall include the apparatus necessary to properly clean the existing surface, a
mechanical marking machine, a bead dispensing machine, and such auxiliary hand-painting equipment as may be
necessary to satisfactorily complete the job.
The mechanical marker shall be an atomizing spray-type or airless type marking machine suitable for application of
traffic paint. It shall produce an even and uniform film thickness at the required coverage and shall apply markings
of uniform cross sections and clear-cut edges without running or spattering and without over spray.
620-3.3 PREPARATION OF SURFACE. Immediately before application of the paint, the surface shall be dry
and free from dirt, grease, oil, laitance, or other foreign material that would reduce the bond between the paint and
the pavement. The area to be painted shall be cleaned by sweeping and blowing or by other methods as required to
remove all dirt, laitance, and loose materials without damage to the pavement surface. Use of any chemicals or
impact abrasives during surface preparation shall be approved in advance by the Engineer. Existing pavement
markings shall be removed in accordance with Technical Supplement 105 prior to application of new markings.
620-3.4 LAYOUT OF MARKINGS. The proposed markings shall be laid out in advance of the paint application.
All markings repainted and newly painted within the airfield operating system shall receive glass beads, with the
exception of black paint.
620-3.5 APPLICATION. Paint shall be applied at the locations and to the dimensions and spacing shown on the
plans. Paint shall not be applied until the layout and condition of the surface has been approved by the Engineer.
The edges of the markings shall not vary from a straight line more than 1/2 inch (12 mm) in 50 feet (15 m) and marking
dimensions and spacings shall be within the following tolerances:
Dimension and Spacing
36 inches (910 mm) or less
greater than 36 inches to 6 feet (910 mm to 1.85 m)
greater than 6 feet to 60 feet (1.85 m to 18.3 m)
