Preparing a Parking Lot for New Striping

A little preparation goes a long way toward a smooth striping project. While the exact steps depend on your lot and the project scope, a few basics help the work go well.

Clear the Work Area

The most important step is making sure the area to be striped is clear of vehicles, equipment, and obstacles. A clear surface lets the striping work proceed without interruption.

A Clean Surface Helps

Loose debris, dirt, and standing water can affect how markings go down. A generally clean, dry surface is a good starting point. We’ll discuss any specific preparation when we review your project.

Plan Around Your Schedule

Striping work is easiest when the lot can be closed or sectioned off. Planning around your business hours helps minimize disruption to customers and tenants.
