Even when the base is built correctly, layout and marking issues frequently appear in the field. Here are real examples of the measurable deviations we regularly see.



This issue isn’t visible during the initial striping—it typically only reveals itself at the first repaint.
By then, the running track is complete and options are limited.
Understanding it early allows for control over long-term consistency.






Long-term consistency comes from controlling stencil and layout decisions from the initial striping.

• Accurate calculations and drawings
• Independent oversight in the field with dual-mark verification
• Standardized stencil package for consistent markings
• Educational seminars in your office for architects, engineers, General Contractors and Schools
Define events, colors, and layout decisions before striping begins—so nothing is left to interpretation in the field.
