Fast-Dry Systems for Durable Waterborne Paints

Explore New Horizons in Road Marking

New Sahara waterborne paints dry so fast, you’ll think you’re spraying in the desert. Now waterbornes can be applied at thick films as durable road markings. So you can stripe less frequently. With no costly equipment purchases. And none of the issues associated with thermoplastic and multicomponent systems. Waterborne striping season is extended too.
