Can hot melt marking paint be applied on damp ground? Professional answers have arrived

In road marking construction, weather and ground conditions are often key factors affecting construction quality. Especially when encountering damp ground conditions, many construction teams may hesitate whether to apply hot-melt marking paint. So, can construction be carried out on damp ground? How should we respond? Today, we will discuss this issue in detail.
The impact of damp ground on the construction of hot-melt marking lines
The construction of hot-melt marking paint has high requirements for ground conditions. A damp road surface can lead to a decrease in the adhesion between the paint and the ground, making it prone to problems such as bubbles and peeling. In addition, construction in humid environments may also affect the drying speed and final reflective effect of coatings. Therefore, in general, it is not recommended to carry out hot-melt marking construction on obviously damp road surfaces.

How to deal with construction needs in humid environments?

If the construction period is tight and it must be carried out in a humid environment, the following measures can be taken:
Cleaning the road surface: Use a hair dryer or fire gun to dry damp areas, ensuring that the road surface is as dry as possible.
Adjust construction time: Choose sunny weather or high afternoon temperatures for construction, and utilize natural conditions to reduce the impact of moisture.
Use specialized primer: Apply a layer of specialized primer before applying hot melt marking paint to enhance the adhesion between the paint and wet road surfaces.
Control the temperature of the coating: Increase the construction temperature of the hot-melt marking coating appropriately to improve its fluidity and adhesion performance.
Of course, these methods can only alleviate the problems caused by moisture to a certain extent, and a more reliable way is to wait for the road surface to completely dry before construction.
