Clear lines allow you to manage your business's traffic effectively. Parking lot lines are used to mark parking slots for cars, detailed signs showing traffic flow direction, no parking signs, handicap signs, etc.

There are two ways to do it:

You can use a 4-inch paint roller and paint by hand over a chalk line you've drawn. Buy a good quality traffic paint to ensure your results will last.
For a much neater and less back-breaking technique, you can use a parking lot striper to paint straight parking lines on any asphalt or concrete surface. They're available in a range of sizes depending on how much line striping you're doing.

It is also important to have the right parking lot stencils to be able to mark special areas for a professional finish.

A few considerations before you paint lines on your parking lot…..

Measuring is critical. It's important to know how much paint you'll need before you get to the job site. Call us for help determining your needs.

Keep it clean. 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.

Create a solid base. 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.

One last consideration. 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 lines 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.

We also provide free expert parking lot striping consultations that guide you through the whole process of how to properly measure spacing between parking lines, line length, how many handicap signs should be on a lot with “X” number of parking spots, etc.)

Let us help you make your clients feel like you have invested in your business. The first impression is the most important impression.
