Safety/Marking Durable, Non-Fading Job Description: After a surveyed layout of new markings was completed (including engineering adjustments made for new aircraft ramps) old tarmac markings were removed with ultra-high water pressure. The markings were put down with Ramp Engineering's patented application system using Specialty Products, Inc.'s AMP-100 (Aliphatic Modified Polyurea) with AE-4 (Adhesion Enhancing) additive. Reflective glass spheres were added to the second 20 mil coat of AMP-100. The striping colors applied were yellow, red, white, blue and black. This is the first job in which reflective spheres were added to the stream of polyurea. Ramp Engineering has applied for and received a patent on this process. Continental Airlines is very satisfied with the final product. The Port Authority (NY/NJ) is writing a specifi-cation to use polyurea for future aviation projects. Follow-up Inspection: A 2-year inspection shows total adhesion on concrete and good color stability. Other Coatings Evaluated for Project: No other coatings were evaluated for this project. Line-striping paint had been used prior to this new polyurea application. |
