PRETREATMENT OF CONCRETE PAVEMENT FOR TRAFFIC STRIPING

THIS PAPER DESCRIBES EXPERIMENTS ON TREATMENT OF PORTLANT CEMENT CONCRETE SURFACES WITH PHOSPHORIC ACID FOR THE PURPOSE OF SECURING A BETTER BASE FOR TRAFFIC MARKING PAINT, AND THE WORK THAT HAS BEEN DONE TOWARD THE ADOPTION OF AN ASPHALTIC EMULSION BASE FOR THE SAME PURPOSE. THE CAUSES OF FAILURE OF TRAFFIC PAINTS ON CONCRETE SURFACES, AS COMPARED TO ASPHALTIC SURFACES, ALSO ARE DISCUSSED. /AUTHOR/
