Overview Reviews

High Build Traffic Paint for Defined Road Markings

This 5-gallon traffic paint is a Type 3 high build acrylic waterborne formula designed for pavement marking in high traffic areas. This formula meets federal TT-P-1952F Type Ill specs and delivers strong retroreflectivity, quick dry times, and durable results on high-traffic surfaces.

Compared to standard traffic marking paint, the Type 3 formula is applied at a higher mil thickness, allowing markings to stand out more clearly on pavement. This makes it a practical option for road striping, parking lots, and areas with frequent vehicle movement where markings need to remain visible over time.
