THE VERSATILITY OF FLEXILINE IS DEMONSTRATED BY OUR RANGE OF GUIDANCE SYMBOLS AND LOGOS.
THESE INCLUDE SYMBOLS FOR DISABLED PARKING, MOTHER & CHILD PARKING AND CYCLE LANES
THESE PRODUCTS ARE MANUFACTURED FROM THE SAME HARDWEARING MATERIAL AND APPLIED IN EXACTLY THE SAME WAY. THE FACT THAT FLEXILINE IS APPROVED FOR HIGHWAY USE IN HEAVY TRAFFIC CONDITIONS DEMONSTRATES THE EXCEPTIONAL DURABILITY OF THIS PRODUCT.
PLEASE SELECT THE MARKING YOU NEED FROM THE OPTION BOX BELOW. THE BASE PRICE IS FOR THE 700 x 600mm BICYCLE SYMBOL.
ALL FLEXILINE PRODUCTS ARE EASY TO HANDLE AND INSTALL.
NOTE THE FOLLOWING STORAGE AND APPLICATION INSTRUCTIONS.
When storing preformed road markings, it is essential to ensure the following:
1. The markings are never stood on their side or on their end.
2. The markings must be carefully stacked and no heavy objects should be
placed on top.
3. Store at room temperature, avoiding direct sunlight.
4. The markings must not be dropped, particularly in cold weather.
HOW TO LAY THE MARKINGS
1. Position warning signs and cones if necessary and ensure all vehicles are
removed from the working area.
2. The surface of the road must be dry, clean and in good condition. If in
doubt always do a test patch. If there is any surface water, sweep this away
and dry out dampness with a torch.
3. Remove the protective plastic film and place into position.
When laying lines, ensure they are ‘butted’ up correctly and straight.
4. Set regulator at 25psi, ignite and turn torch onto required pressure.
5. Position nozzle of blowtorch 4-6 inches above the centre of the marking at
one end. With a side to side motion, heat the material until it begins to
bubble and flow, then continue with the rest of the marking.
6. Care must be taken with the speed of the bonding. Too slow and the
marking may burn, too fast and the marking may not bond. If the flame is
too high and incorrectly angled, it is possible to distort the markings.
Good application can be achieved with experience.
7. If the marking is multi-layered apply the base layer first and allow to cool,
then position the second layer and repeat the fixing instructions.
8. For initial retro-reflectivity, apply glass beads to the surface of the line
during heating.
9. Allow the material to cool before removing cones. If fast cooling is
required, it is suggested that water may be sprayed over the markings.
PLEASE NOTE: Tack Coat should be applied to the following surfaces
before applying Flexiline:
1. Concrete
2. Old tarmac and polished asphalt
3. Previously dirty surfaces, which have been thoroughly swept
We do not advise application of Flexiline onto new asphalt until the surface has
settled for at least 6-8 weeks. Where the surface is in doubt we suggest
that Tack Coat is applied and a test patch is carried out before
completion of the entire job.
