• Abstract:
  Oregon Department of Transportation staff evaluated waterborne, latex traffic paint and Visibeads (registered trademark) to determine if the application characteristics and durability of these pavement marking materials deserved further consideration. Findings indicate that: waterborne latex paint is an acceptable alternative to conventional paints, at least in geographical areas that have a significant amount of time that the road is dry and pavement and air temperatures are above 50 deg F (4.4 deg C); Visibead (registered trademark) application technology and bead use rate resulted in the recommendation that use of these beads should not be considered until these problems are overcome; and significant improvement in worker safety is also expected.
